Want to Know How? Ask Karen!

World-renowned spiritual teacher and healer Karen Ruimy offers a soulful guide to romantic love, healing, and inner transformation

Internationally acclaimed spiritual teacher, healer and performer Karen Ruimy announces the release of her new book, Ask Karen the Series, a powerful companion for anyone navigating the mysteries of romantic love, soulmates, twin flames, and spiritual partnership.

Drawing on years of deep spiritual work and thousands of heartfelt questions from her weekly Instagram Lives, spiritual guide Karen Ruimy reframes romantic love not as a distraction or indulgence, but as one of the most sacred and transformational experiences available to us in this lifetime.

“Romantic love can elevate us, crack us open, and mirror our deepest wounds,” says Karen. “It is here to awaken us. Love is a sacred mirror, revealing not only our current energetic vibration but the deeper desires of our own soul path.”

Love as a Sacred Mirror

Ask Karen - the Series invites readers to see romantic love as a soul call - a profound yearning not simply for “the other,” but for a return to wholeness within themselves.

Within the book Karen explores how love exposes our ego patterns, fears, and standards, illuminates where we still seek external validation or rescue and encourages us to reclaim our power through self-love and inner healing.

While many of us pour our longing into the search for a partner, Karen offers a radical reframe: true fulfilment does not come from being chosen, but from choosing yourself - again and again.

“Love is sacred, union is a mirror, and being seen in your wholeness by another is one of the most beautiful, brave human experiences we will ever know,” Karen writes. “But it must begin within.”

Redesigning the Matrix of Love

The book gently guides readers to “rewire the matrix” of their romantic life through deep, reflective inquiry. Karen invites readers to ask:

- Who am I when I’m not trying to be loved?

- What is my soul guiding me towards?

- What does my inner child still long to hear?

- Where do I ache for my own tenderness?

- What am I still waiting for someone else to fix or fill?

These questions, she explains, are not quick fixes, but lifelong gateways into authentic self-connection. When we commit to our own healing and say yes to self-love, life begins to meet us with partners, mirrors, and soul companions who honour who we truly are.

A Soul Space, Not Just a Book

Born from countless real-life questions - “How do I find love? How do I trust it? How do I heal when it ends? How do I know if someone is “the one”?” Ask Karen: The Series is both a response and a refuge.

Karen describes the book as “a conversation with you - a safe space, a soul space.”

She speaks not as a distant guru, but as a teacher and friend who has walked the path of love, loss, and transformation herself.Within its pages, readers will explore heartbreak and soulmates, twin flames and divine timing, energetic communication, karmic ties, what it means to be in a true spiritual partnership and the deeper purpose of romantic love.

At its core, the book carries one central message: Love is not a distraction from your spiritual path - love is the spiritual path.

Shakespeare, Sex and Love

In his book Shakespeare, Sex and Love noted Shakespearean expert and author Stanley Wells takes on a fairly big task.

He examines how Shakespeare dealt with the subjects of sex and romantic love in his plays and his other written works.

In doing this, Wells undertakes a detailed analysis of the works of Shakespeare, which, of course, one would expect.

But Wells does more than this. He examines the sexual morays of the times in which William Shakespeare lived. How the contemporary folk of the day viewed sex and sexual matters.

He explores the use of sexual imagery in Elizabethan poetry, how some apparently innocent phrases would have possibly had another, more titillating meaning that would have been all too clear to the groundlings who attended the performances of the plays.  

Wells also points out that some modern critics simply do not 'get' Shakespeare, failing to understand some of the points he was making, or at least, illustrating.

The text is assisted by some photographs of the plays of Shakespeare, which are most helpful.

A very interesting book from dramatical and historical viewpoints.

It is published by the Oxford University Press in paperback at £10.99 or $17.95.  However, it might well be available at a discount through the That's Books bookshop, which is powered by Amazon.
