Ratings and reviews

I've probably watched this 30 times and keep learning something new or being reminded something important. I also use this in my group settings to help my clients be more attentive to the here and now and get away from emotional thinking.. love this movie...deserves 10 stars

I'm so glad I don't pay attention to tween reviews. Everything you should be paying attention to right now. The Way of the Peaceful Warrior should be required reading in every curriculum

I remember someone telling me about this when I was in rehab and how it changed their life. It wasn’t till about two years later I finally got an opportunity to watch the movie and it changed my life!!
