Workbook for Self-Discovery

Now that you have read Sex and Sexuality, and in order to fully benefit from the materials presented I offer this Workbook for your own personal self-discovery. There is no greater journey in this lifetime than the inner one of knowing who you are. Even if you think you know who you are, when contemplated and explored new things are discovered upon each inquiry. Use these questions are for your own benefit. The answers are highly personal so only share the answers with those you are comfortable discussing intimate subjects with. You may decide to share them with no one. Or you may decide to share them with the author or another professional who is knowledgeable and can help you to sort out your questions and answers. It is important to be open and honest with yourself here, since this really is between you and Great Spirit/God/Universal Intelligence anyway. Skipping over these questions will not harm anyone and they are certainly not required, however this is an opportunity to know yourself better, and in the process not only improve your life, but the life of those you love. The oneness principle shows us that as we improve our own life the life of those around us improves. I talk about the oneness principle in Transitions blog and on the website, Unity in Gender Diversity. Thank you for reading Sex and Sexuality, I sincerely hope you gained some knowledge that you were not aware of before and that you can integrate this into your life for the highest and best good. Please visit the website Unity in Gender Diversity and share your thoughts and feelings about this book. May your Journey of Discovery be a Joyous one! It is recommended that you print this workbook and use it that way, or simply answer the questions in your own journal or notebook. Enjoy!

Introduction “I step forward in faith and love, knowing that goodness lay before me. I accept what I have created as being in my best interest and I ask that Great Spirit walk with me to show me the way.” “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: For thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.”
