A mind bending book. The way Segal perceived the world is a fascinating glimpse into the complexity of human consciousness.

From the description, this might turn you away from leaning too much into esoteric and meta-physics. But the actual truth is surprisingly nuanced. Segal has strong backgrounds both in spiritual movements and psychology and she doesn't shy away from using or critizising either lens. I found her descriptions mostly compatible with my own atheist world view. She doesn't seem to try to indoctrinate the reader. So I recommend approaching her story with an open mind.
