Summary
"Light Is the New Black" is a guidebook for a new breed of women who are here to be bright lights in the world modern-day lightworkers， who agreed to be here at this time in history。 In order to thrive in this new age， everything we do must be an authentic expression of who we truly are。 "Light Is the New Black" will guide you back home to the callings of your soul， so you can light up the world with your presence。 Rebecca Campbell had her first awakening when she was a teenager， but without anyone to guide her， she ignored her soul's callings and dimmed her light in order to fit in。 Then， just before her 30th birthday， the life she had so consciously created began to crumble around her。 It was as if the Universe turned off all the lights， so she had no choice but to rediscover her own。 In this book， Rebecca shares her own journey， alongside practical tools to help you reconnect with the core of your being， and channeled messages from the Universe。 Once you rediscover what you already know at soul level， you can offer the world something that only you can give。"

This book has changed my life！ A friend recommended it to me a few months after I had started taping into spirituality。 It's beautiful and comforting how Rebecca has shared her own story plus advice for us。 It has helped me see the bigger picture， not be a victim of my past but focus on where it's leading me and has allowed me to forgive God and the universe for my suffering and make peace with it。 I wish I can meet Rebecca one day and give her a big hug and thank her for writing this book！ I re This book has changed my life！ A friend recommended it to me a few months after I had started taping into spirituality。 It's beautiful and comforting how Rebecca has shared her own story plus advice for us。 It has helped me see the bigger picture， not be a victim of my past but focus on where it's leading me and has allowed me to forgive God and the universe for my suffering and make peace with it。 I wish I can meet Rebecca one day and give her a big hug and thank her for writing this book！ I recommend this book to all my clients who are artists， empaths， intuitives。 。。。more

A soulful， easy read。 The perfect book to grab right before mediation in the morning。 Rebecca writes straight from the heart and her guidance towards spiritual growth， rising up as a light in the world and trusting your internal compass is powerful in its simplicity。 Highly recommend for the spiritually curious or anyone feeling stuck or unsatisfied in their life。

A call to live the life you want。 To trust the internal nudges， to follow your heart’s desire and live a life filled with light。 Great， thought provoking journal prompts at the end of each chapter。

This was a quick read and had several great points about going after things you already love。 I really enjoyed the idea of being drawn to people because they have traits that are already inside you。

I first came across Rebecca’s oracle deck， Work Your Light some time ago。 Which I love！ This is the first book that I’m reading of hers and it’s her first book that she has written。 When I looked at reviews that gave this book a low rating the most common comment was that it was too simple of a book。 Sometimes simple is what you need。 I liked this book and yes it had a simple message， be yourself。 Throughout the book there were exercises and affirmations that regurgitate that other people’s opin I first came across Rebecca’s oracle deck， Work Your Light some time ago。 Which I love！ This is the first book that I’m reading of hers and it’s her first book that she has written。 When I looked at reviews that gave this book a low rating the most common comment was that it was too simple of a book。 Sometimes simple is what you need。 I liked this book and yes it had a simple message， be yourself。 Throughout the book there were exercises and affirmations that regurgitate that other people’s opinion of you is none of your busy。 In other words not to care about what people think of you。 。。。more

A good book to get going in life and feel positive。 It's a new-age book but not that deep so I can recommend it to folks who want to get out of the usual genre and pick up something a bit spiritual。 It's a feel-good book over all， and I finished it over a span of 3 years because I read it once in a while。 Like a perk-me up when I want to read something fresh and encouraging。 Better than most self-help books。 A good book to get going in life and feel positive。 It's a new-age book but not that deep so I can recommend it to folks who want to get out of the usual genre and pick up something a bit spiritual。 It's a feel-good book over all， and I finished it over a span of 3 years because I read it once in a while。 Like a perk-me up when I want to read something fresh and encouraging。 Better than most self-help books。 。。。more

Honestly， I don't really want to write this review because it's not a good one， so I'll try to keep it short。 There was very little actionable advice in this book。 If you're looking for a pseudo-memoir of Rebecca Campbell， this is your book。 If you're looking for one that's more 'take your own life into your hands and "answer your soul's callings" [as this book claims to be]' and if you're a fan of Rebecca Campbell's style of writing （it's， um， unique）， check out Rise Sister Rise: A Guide to Unl Honestly， I don't really want to write this review because it's not a good one， so I'll try to keep it short。 There was very little actionable advice in this book。 If you're looking for a pseudo-memoir of Rebecca Campbell， this is your book。 If you're looking for one that's more 'take your own life into your hands and "answer your soul's callings" [as this book claims to be]' and if you're a fan of Rebecca Campbell's style of writing （it's， um， unique）， check out Rise Sister Rise: A Guide to Unleashing the Wise， Wild Woman Within。Also of note， I found her absurdly frequent usage of the word "niggling" annoying and a clear sign of her completely unacknowledged if not outright ignored white privilege。 Speaking of privilege， it's always upsetting to see white people write books on world religions - or mix-mashed pseudo-spiritualities that sound vaguely 'wise' - in which they a） get a lot wrong， b） don't credit the source， c） don't acknowledge their privilege， and d） look to so-called "gurus" （looking at her references to "Guru" Bhajan， a cult leader whose abuse of women is well-documented） for their 'Spirituality Lite'©， which then sells more than content created by people who are actually educated on those topics and for whom Hinduism， for example， is their actual religion and not just something cherry-picked for the aesthetic bits。 Well， it looks like I couldn't keep it short， after all。 Look， I'm not a huge fan of hers for rather obvious reasons。 In Rise Sister Rise: A Guide to Unleashing the Wise， Wild Woman Within ， she writes a bit about women tearing down other women being the downfall of modern feminism。 I don't disagree entirely BUT there are legitimate concerns that intersectional feminists bring to the fore that are either ignored by TERFs/SWERFs and so-called feminists or are treated with outright hostility （transgender women and their right to a safe space within the community， for example） by them and those are things that NEED to be discussed and disseminated for the good of ALL。 Feminism that is exclusionary based on which organs a woman does or doesn't have isn't actually radical， nor is it actually feminism。 Rebecca Campbell also references the "womb" a lot。 That made me very uncomfortable， but that's my own baggage。 However， relying on organ-based stereotypes to prove a point is very TERF-y and anti-inclusive。 Most of the time， it seemed she was using the terminology in a metaphorical， Holy Grail/chalice of life sense， which is what it is， I guess it's fine， but I did pick up on a few inferred parts where she seemed to consider the "womb" （it's called a uterus） itself holy and as such worthy of worship by its own merits。 That's very thin ice she's skating on， if stated as intended， because she risks aligning herself entirely with the TERFs who believe only women born with uteruses （even though many of us would rather die than 'use' them） are women， and that everyone else is a hostile imposter。 All of this is to say that sometimes criticism is essential。 We need to be held accountable for our words and actions， especially when they are - or can be construed as - harmful to those who are already marginalized/disenfranchised， like trans women。 Inclusivity is damn important。 Call my critiques of her grammar nitpicking， that's fine， but the content of this paragraph is essential to her or any feminist's actual growth as a human and feminist。 And finally， avoid Rebecca Campbell's books altogether if you have a close working relationship with English grammar。 Her writing is extraordinarily light on punctuation， to the point where some of her statements are formatted in a way that changes the entire meaning and/or makes it sound like a nonsensical run-on sentence， due to the omission of little things like commas。 She's not a writer by trade or education， which is clear， but I've seen plenty of writers for whom this was not an intended career do much better with what they had access to than she did。 Hayhouse isn't that small of a publisher and they should have edited it better than they did。 And I suppose with that， I'll finish this because it's seeming more like a rant than a review the more I write。 I'll reiterate my point from the first paragraph: this book is more for those who want to know more about her， the other one is more useful for those of us who'd like to learn more about ourselves。 It has exercises that make sense and that might be considered helpful， especially to women new to the notion of 'shadow work' or who are struggling with issues of self-esteem， self-worth， and self-compassion。 。。。more

Very positive book， can bit a tad repetitive， but in a good way， sort of like an affirmation。If you like spiritual stuff and have a goal you’re wishing to achieve this is the book for you。

I really enjoyed this book- sometimes I found myself wanting a little bit more anecdotal content from Rebecca's life/journey but overall I loved the messages。 The format of the book was nice too with five parts of 1-2 page "chapters。" I really enjoyed this book- sometimes I found myself wanting a little bit more anecdotal content from Rebecca's life/journey but overall I loved the messages。 The format of the book was nice too with five parts of 1-2 page "chapters。" 。。。more

A bit repetitive and disconnected。 I would love to have some more insight to it instead of just “follow your light”。 But overall it was an encouraging read。

I started reading this in July 2018 and didn't finish until February 2021。 It's a little silly and too 'woo' in some places， and inspiring in others。 I don't really have strong feelings about it。 I started reading this in July 2018 and didn't finish until February 2021。 It's a little silly and too 'woo' in some places， and inspiring in others。 I don't really have strong feelings about it。 。。。more

It had some interesting stuff in it， but （to me） it was rather repetitive for how long it was。 Also （to me） it was a bit。。。much。 Much of what？ I don't know， but it was a bit much， and I spent a lot of the time almost rolling my eyes by how cheesy it sounded。 No doubt that it helps other people， but it just wasn't for me。 It had some interesting stuff in it， but （to me） it was rather repetitive for how long it was。 Also （to me） it was a bit。。。much。 Much of what？ I don't know， but it was a bit much， and I spent a lot of the time almost rolling my eyes by how cheesy it sounded。 No doubt that it helps other people， but it just wasn't for me。 。。。more
