From a childhood in the cultural wasteland of American suburbia to rebellion against the Vietnam War, going underground, fleeing to Europe, Canada, Mexico and then to Scandinavia where Barbara and her husband got political asylum and where Barbara became a leading voice in the youth rebellion of the late 60s, this book tells the story of those tumultuous times. From runaway hippie to vanguard author and leader, to a new marriage and children, then head of a thriving Macrobiotic health center in Copenhagen, followed by breakdown, divorce and the struggle to become a free and independent woman. Until today, where Barbara is the author of 15 self-help books, two of which are international bestsellers.
But MY ROAD TO POWER is much more than Barbara’s own, personal story — it is also a historical journey through the major collective movements and experiments arising since the Second World War — the Beat Generation, the Hippies, mind-altering drugs, travelling to the East (for enlightenment), organic foods, collective living and more. The saga ends as Barbara’s focus changes to a growing awareness of the power of mind and consciousness in shaping our lives and societies. Discoveries which are of major importance in today’s very troubled world.
