Ratings and reviews

Amazing! Thank you so much to the author of this book. So very true and on point. I have been through many if not most of the thought processes she describes in the first 2 or 3 chapters. However as I have grown in maturity and in age I to came to the same conclusions as described and have been able to move on and continue in a mindful and beneficial way of responding to what life throws at us. I feel balanced within and it shows by my external expression of positivity. I've just come out of a relationship with someone who was "stuck" and held captive by his own thinking patterns and ultimately destroyed our relationship of ten plus years. I look forward to completing the book and gaining the knowledge and tools I've yet to discover. To the author: May this wonderful gift you have been given continue to reach inside the human spirit to bring clarity, relief and resolve to those who suffer within themselves. Thank you.

Found this author on YouTube. I started watching the videos. The more I watched the videos. The more I watched the more she described me and how I feel everyday. so I decided to read her book.
