Best Book I’ve Read In YEARS!
I could not put it down! I have read a ton of self help books but this is not just a self help book, it’s a life changer. It taught me how to live in the present, how to find my purpose for life again, how to put that purpose into action. It reminded me why it’s valuable to live a adventurous, meaningful life and how to completely live! I feel alive and positive! I was tempted to just read through it and not do the writing but do it! I’d forgotten how valuable it is to grab a pen and physically write in a book. There is a ton of self reflection, just be totally honest with yourself and this book will absolutely help you overcome the hurdles that are holding you back.
Compelling me to become the Gypsy that I have inside!
I love how the author holds my hand step by step through the process and tells me her stories. I am captured. She seems to be writing to women but as a man who needs to break out of my own shy tendencies, I found the book to be very helpful in grabbing my attention, and transforming my thoughts from those that are unworthy and negative to a bright positive vision that I can trust in. I began to resonate with the values of gratitude and self love and making her practices my own. Thank you Andrea Riggs, from the bottom of my heart.
Not Bad; Just Not for Me
Not badly written or anything. I personally don’t like it; just not for me. It’s a self help book with exercises which is nice if you’re looking for self help. (I did half of them) Not a bad book I’ve just read better books about getting connected with their Gypsy self by a real Gypsy. I’ve read more than half way through and just couldn’t read anymore. Nothing against the author; just not for me.
You mean it's okay to be have a gypsy soul?
I'm only halfway through, but I love it! I often avoid doing exercises that are within books, but the author has a way of drawing me in and creates the desire to do them. I highly recommend doing the exercises and they enhance the reader experience, which is the whole point, right? I've always felt like I had a Gypsy soul and the author helps me discover that part of me and know that it's okay to be that way. Apparently a whole tribe of gypsies exists out there :-)
A real masterpiece! You realize no matter where you are, you are never alone.
The book is well written and laid out in such a way that it was like speaking with and working with someone in person. I felt a sense of belonging, and that I wasn't alone with my own personal struggles. I really got present that this is a daily process and that at any given moment I don’t need to be somewhere more than right here and now. I am grateful that this book was written and a friend shared it with me. It is a tool that I will use daily and share with others. The feelings of being alive and truly liking my own company on my journey is remarkable. I recommend this book to anyone who is ready for change and willing to shed the chains that bind you. I will carry this book in my studio and private practice to share with students and clients. Peace be with, Brent S
Looking for a book to change your life?
Gypsy Living, by Andrea Riggs is a life-changing book. Inspired by the heart and written with pure intent, this book provided me with the tools, concepts, self-understanding and love required to reshape and change my life. I now understand what it means to truly live free, authentically, and follow my heart. I've embraced my own "Gypsy Spirit", leaving the things that matter not and allowing in those that really do. This is living powerfully, simply, and beautifully. Thank you Andrea Riggs for an exceptional guide, diverse and distinctive from many other self-help books I've read.
I have had the good fortune to meet Andrea personally
I have had the good fortune to meet Andrea personally. The powerful thoughts and words in her book are a true expression of her Gypsy Heart. I am only partway through the book but continue to find gems of wisdom which can help me let my spirit soar. Andrea invites you into your own heart and encourages you to become the joyful being you were meant to be. I highly recommend it!
A life-changing book!
I am thoroughly impressed with the author's ability to share her story in a unique and compelling format. Unlike many books where people tell their stories to simply offer entertainment, Ms. Riggs provides the reader the inspiration and prompting to grab hold of life and make our own dreams come true! It's akin to hearing a story around a campfire combined with all of the tools to begin creating a magical life. I'm definitely inspired! Well done!
A workbook guide to truly living the life you want
Great read for those looking to find meaning in their life and those making big decisions about the life they want to live. It lead to introspection of how I am living my life at such a pace that sometimes I forget to breath and live in the moment in a way I can enjoy my surroundings, pause and truly live, giving what ever I do more meaning and value. With a big family I mostly do for them and not for me, this made me feel ok about doing for me and taking time to be alone with my thoughts and feelings, getting to know myself as an individual and evaluating the kind of life I really want. Like that I got to write about my thoughts on what I was reading, when you see your response on the work pages provided you truly understand Andrea Riggs objective.

Gypsy Living Review Andrea’s passion & spice for life is infectious!!! She graciously reminds us in “Gypsy Living”, not to wait to live our most daring adventure; and instead, to NOW, unleash our spirit, our hunger for life; so we can bless ourselves and the lives of others!! Andrea takes us through this process with a sacred understanding of the human spirit that lives inside each and everyone one of us. I highly recommend this reading and am truly grateful for the tools and gifts she has given us; so that we may wake up to live passionately and not just survive!! Pilar Caso

An Empowering and Nourishing Read
Nourishing to both mind and spirit, this book is part inspiration and part workbook. The author uses a conversation tone, great insights and tons of encouragement to start her readers firmly on the gypsy path.
Captures the essence of living life to the fullest!
Amazing! Andrea has a way of writing that speaks directly to me and seemingly to everyone else who reads this book. She captures the essence of life and living it to the fullest, regardless of where we are right now. I love the exercises in the book and inspires me to write!
Self love is critical
Great read!! The words regarding self-love jumped off the pages and resonated with me. I’ve struggled in this area and the action exercises allowed me to create a practice which allows me to connect to myself which in turn gives me the opportunity to connect and love others. Working through and overcoming negative emotions and developing self love will put us on the path to healing and living the life your meant to live-full of love and abundance! Very inspiring!!💜
Empowering and beautifully written book!
LOVE this book and the focus on finding your inner gypsy spirit. I resonated with the author's empowering approach to dig deep and search within. Very beautiful book that I'd highly recommend to anyone who wants to live a life of inner freedom, joy and spiritual connection.
Beautiful words dancing on paper!!
This book is fun, easy to read and it grabbed my attention from page one! That is hard for me. I love how her words flowed from page to page and sort of danced along in almost a poetic manner. I am usin this book as a tool to help me in certain areas of my life.

I am so grateful that Andrea spent the time to write out the stories that helped her unleash her own GYPSY spirit, while giving us the wisdom and the space for us to find our OWN inner GYPSY and let it run wild and free (as it always wanted)! Love that it was a workbook so we could write directly inside. There were so many personal breakthroughs for me while reading through it. I will be rereading it happily to experience more breakthroughs the second time around!!

What a wonderful tool this book has been on my journey of healing. I felt lost, questioning what I truly wanted out of life. The words spoke to my inner self that wanted so desperately to escape fear and trauma.

Useful and valuable life affirming info in this book!
I had the honor of reading a copy in advance of its release and full disclosure I am mentioned in the book. The story Andrea tells of how me met serves as a testimonial to how amazing Andrea is. I got a lot of great insight by reading this book and the #1 thing that I have used time and again and that has transformed my relationships with using Affirmations is on page 116. Andrea says to take your affirmations and put a "Why" in front of them. In the past I've struggled with Affirmation as saying them triggered self-doubt. When forming it as a Why question however my brain goes to work to come up with all the reasons. Incredibly powerful and extremely valuable for me. Thanks Andrea!
