I think I was expecting more introduction and background on the relevant yogic concepts, nothing extensive, just enough to ground and orient Stanley's stories and practices for those of us not familiar with the field. I didn't feel like I found that here, which I think made some of the advice and practices more difficult to fully grasp and relate to.

The Luminous Self contains a lot of perspective and teachings from author Tracee Stanley and a lot of "practices" (mediations and other exercises) for readers to try out. Personally, I found a lot of the perspective discussions interesting while some parts (especially whenever referring to long-dead ancestors or the Universe communicating with us) difficult to swallow, at least without some sort of background to ground these ideas' in a perspective that I can understand (whether or not I might agree or sympathize with it). A lot of the practices involved lots of symbolic visualization and projection which may or may not resonate for everyone and didn't so much for me, although even so there're a few good ideas in there.

Overall, I suspect that some (perhaps some who're more already-grounded in yogic concepts than I?) might find some or all of this book more useful than I did, but I had a hard time connecting with much of it, and found myself skimming through some of the practice descriptions near the end.
