Her literary style is marked by clarity and fervor, seamlessly blending mystical experience with practical guidance. Composed during a period rife with theological reform and personal challenges, the text reflects the context of the Spanish Counter-Reformation, where Teresa's insights served to deepen the understanding of contemplative prayer and reinforce the importance of inner spirituality amidst external chaos. As a prominent figure in the Carmelite reform movement, St. Teresa drew upon her own experiences of spiritual desolation and ecstasy, shaping a work that is both autobiographical and instructive.
