Bright Light: Spiritual Lessons from a Life in Acting Paperback – April 26, 2011
Purchase options and add-ons
"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

DEE WALLACE is an internationally known actress (250 films credits, 6 series, over 400 commercials) best known for her role as the mother in Steven Spielberg’s E.T.! She has appeared on every major network and talk show, including Oprah and The Today Show. Ms. Wallace earned her teaching credentials from The University of Kansas, and has worked as a teacher in the public school system, as well as her own dance and acting studios. Ms. Wallace expanded her love of teaching, and the principles she found empowering for children, into daily sessions, a radio show and five books. Her work is based on the principles of accepting responsibility, and loving ourselves early in life to create the life we desire.
Dee is a strong advocate for accepting (at an early age) our own magnificence and power in a positive, loving way. A child’s personality is set between 0-8 years of age which has a direct impact on the creation of their life. Dee’s important message to the world is: Love yourself beyond anyone or anything else. Love yourself so much that you can’t do anything that doesn’t make you love yourself more.
Dee has authored five books on the subject of self-creation: Conscious Creation, The Big E!, Bright Light, Getting Stuff and Wake Up Now! Her new book, BORN, a complete manifestation primer, will be released in December. She conducts a live (call-in) internet radio show each Sunday morning at 9 AM Pacific, and offers monthly webinars on a variety of creation subjects. Dee conducts private sessions from her home in Woodland Hills, California via phone and in person.
As a much sought-after speaker, Dee has spoken at numerous national and international venues including the Love and Harmony Forum in Japan, The Dillon Lecture Series, Unity Temple, The Kansas Film Commission, and asked to speak in China, New Zealand, Amsterdam, Australia, England and all across the United States and Canada. Dee has appeared on every major news and talk show and has been featured on E! True Hollywood Stories, and Oprah.

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 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!!

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.
