"Most readers first memory of Dee Wallace is as the wonderful Mom in everyone's favorite alien movie, E.T. This book, however, is a serious 'curve' in what Dee Wallace, with her acting, has come to represent. In this spiritual autobiography, Dee Wallace actually 'draws' readers into her world, and soon the reader is hooked - as chapter after chapter becomes a self-help guide full of fun, entertainment, interesting remarks, and core truths that can help anyone to live a better, “brighter” life. With her eloquent words, Dee Wallace shows how people can find the power that they have within themselves to come back from any situation. An interesting read from an interesting and inspiring woman". ―Amy Lignor, The Feathered Quill

BRIGHT LIGHT has not only given me insight into Dee's inspirational journey, but it's the story of so many people who are choosing to walk through life consciously. I can identify with her naive trust and knowing, as this rings true in my own life; from the creation of a new career as a yoga instructor, creating a TV program, adventure and travel, it's not always in what you know, but in the letting go! "For the first time I understood CONSCIOUSLY why life had bee so good to Deanna Bowers from Kansas: she had trusted the Universe, expected good things, and believed in herself enough to trip off to New York and had fun going after her dream with passion and just said YES to what came along."

As you delve into Dee's most vulnerable moments, you're given an opportunity to turn your "heart light" on. Dee gives simple examples of what connecting and creating from the heart is and is not; " Most of us are inept at connecting up with our hearts. An example would be the waitress at your favorite coffee shop: you look at her, talk with her, ask her questions, pay her with a thank you, bit do you know the color of her eyes? That is looking at someone and not creating a heart connection, an intimate moment. You're just going through the motions."

Dee's teachings became applicable immediately this month as I'd been struggling in an area of my life where I needed to ask for help (without adding guilt.) Dee writes," People and situations show up to challenge us so we can choose, seek to rebalance, and further our knowing with these tests. It is the equivalent of stepping out whether you can see the net or not. You just have to know that it's there." As my travel schedule expands, I am learning I cannot raise a family, keep a home and continue to teach across the US if I feel guilty in asking for help or think I have to do it all on my own!! When I asked for support, opened my heart and let go, the help I needed showed up immediately. Definitely not another "how to manual" or standard, "stiff self help book," but a story of adventure, joy, laughter and tragedy, moving me to unexpected tears, thank you for helping me find my Bright Light, Dee!

I asked the Universe several months ago to send me a teacher. I am an Actor as well as a Healer and am equally passionate about both but was worried that I would have to choose one over the other. How could I make them work together, was it possible? I came upon Jennifer McLean's Healing with the Masters and bought the series. While scrolling through the different guest Masters I came across Dee Wallace. I did a double take. Dee Wallace from E.T? Yes it was her. This piqued my interest so I listened to her segment right away. All I can say is that I found my teacher. Since then I have tuned into her radio show, read The Big E, and last night finished BRIGHT LIGHT. BRIGHT LIGHT really spoke to me as an Actor and Healer. Traveling with Dee on her journeys through integrating the two helped me see the possibilities and release the fears of judgement. To stop dimming my light, it doesn't serve me, it doesn't serve others, and it doesn't serve the Greatest Good. That I can Be ALL and Have ALL. That's how it hit me on a Spiritual level. Now as an Actor...it is an amazing book to read with lots of great tips on breaking down those blocks. You can't be afraid of the work, and the work is healing. There is that synchronicity again for me! So if you are someone who is looking to add some tools to their Spiritual tool belt, BRIGHT LIGHT is a great one and if you are an Actor...BRIGHT LIGHT is a gem of information that will change your life and way of working. I cannot wait to do some privates with Dee in the near future! I am completely re-inspired.

I so enjoyed reading Bright Light and getting to know Dee! What a fun read and most entertaining ride to learn the most powerful lessons of life and love, self sabotage and hope! Awesome lessons and true gold for actors smart enough to absorb her honest life and professional experience intimately shared in this great gift of a book, but truly its for all who want genuine, authentic, creative, joyful lives as well!!

I am so grateful to have learned about Dee's healing teachings a couple years ago, which illuminates our true power and ability to consciously create our lives. Clearly when we are unaware that we DO in fact create everything we experience then we UNconsciously create our lives instead, and therefore experience many of the so called "unwanted" events we think we had no hand in. No punishment comes from anyone or God or outside forces, nor judgment of the direction or decisions we make, as there really are no "wrong" choices, they have all led us to now and are calling us towards where we want to be, joyous and creative beings of Bright Light that we truly are. We really do have a choice, we can claim and create what we desire or wander unconsciously like someone in the dark bumping into things until we get that the light IS on and with us and is US. Its always on, but we are the ones who get to choose to dim or hide or shine our unique Bright Light and clear a vibrant unlimited life path shining before us. We can do this and it truly is simple yet so deeply powerful, but we ALL can do this! I love you Dee, Thank you!!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 13, 2011
This is a great book. The chapters are well laid out and easy to read. She uses her own life to demonstrate the principles of Conscious Creation beautifully. Her honesty and vulnerability means you get a real insight into the life and thought processes of this wonderful woman.

You sense her clinging on to the A-List fame that E.T gave her as she simultaneously unfolds in her spiritual development. She's courageous-wise-funny-vulnerable and insightful in this book and I would definitely recommend it.
