Find your Soul Path: Discover the Magical Life Within (Book review)

To be honest, as I’m not a practicing witch, I felt a little bit daunted by Emma Griffin’s book Find your Soul Path: Discover the Magical Life Within. Despite being an earthy, spiritual person, with a deep fascination for all things metaphysical, I still felt Find your Soul Path was going to be a bit too “witchy” for my tastes.

“Just give it a chance,” said my husband, who had taken a risk on it as a Xmas gift, knowing, as he did, that I’m not a big reader.

As it turns out, I couldn’t have been more wrong about this book.. From start to finish, Find your Soul Path is a lovely, insightful, easy-to-read book that I now find myself reaching for time and again.

I love how accessible and down-to-earth this book is.. I love how Emma makes spirituality part of everyday life, focusing on sacred spaces, meditation, journaling and more. She even turns making a simple cup of cacao into a meaningful ritual!

Find your Soul Path doesn’t tell you what to believe or how to practice, but promotes instead a more eclectic, nature-based path, involving personal spirituality, inner wisdom and intuition. Self love, positive thinking and dealing with anxiety are just some of the themes that Emma addresses in this book, with simple encouragement to find what works for you.

From the start, Find your Soul Path emphasises the importance of ritual. And here again, Emma encourages a personal approach, whether it’s simple daily practices or deeper seasonal rites. It’s all about finding something that feels right for you.

Find Your Soul Path by celebrated Cornish witch, Emma Griffin is an insightful guide that blends spirituality with practical self-help. In this, her first book, Emma leads us on a journey of self-discovery, helping us align with our soul’s purpose. Beginning in the home, she expands outward with intuition and empowerment as core principles. Written in an easy-to-read style, Find Your Soul Path makes complex spiritual concepts accessible, offering practical tools for living authentically.

The Wheel of the Year, which focuses on the elements and natural cycles is another significant part of Find Your Soul Path, with each season having its own ritual, meticulously demonstrated and explained by Emma. This really resonated with me, as it ties in with my own more practical approach to the seasons—gardening, tending our bees and chickens and living in rhythm with nature.

Since reading Find Your Soul Path, I now find myself adding small personal rituals to my own Wheel of the Year, alongside the practical tasks, to honour each seasonal change in a more personal and meaningful way.

Finally, listening to Find your Soul Path on Audible has been a real treat for me. I struggle with reading due to ADHD, so audiobooks make it much easier for me to absorb information. Emma herself has mentioned in interviews that she struggles with dyslexia, so I can only imagine how challenging writing a book must have been for her. But hearing her narrate her own work adds something special to the experience (in fact, I quite often listen to Emma’s narration while I’m reading her book at the same time!). You can really hear the passion in her voice, making it feel even more personal, engaging and genuine.

There’s a real warmth to Emma’s writing that makes Find your Soul Path such a comforting read. It’s insightful, practical and full of encouragement. So, if you’re looking for something that nurtures your spiritual side without being preachy, I’d definitely recommend it!
