I never liked journaling and found no use for it, except feeling stupid and having nothing that seemed significant to write about. THIS BOOK turns THE NON-JOURNALER INTO A WRITER by helping you work through your feelings with prompts and ideas that really make you think. After just 8 days into the 40 I made some major realizations and had to stop myself from rushing through it. But the main idea of the book is to help you to slow down and listen to yourself.

I had this book for three years and had not used it. While in India for one month, I decided to give the book a try. It was the best journal to write in at the best time possible. It helped to change my life. I absolutely love it! The questions are thought provoking and there are a few things that you might not want to write about. You will find some of the questions a little tough to answer, but the insight you will gain from writing about "scary" topics is amazing. As you complete the journal you will find out so much about yourself and what is really important to you.

This book came to me at the best time. I love it! Segalove writes with experience, guiding you through many realizations and breakthroughs,nudging you along. I very much recommend it.

I have been doing this guided journal for a little over 20 days and I love it. It has really helped me to get down with who I really am. Often, we don't have time to sit down and think about ourselves and what means most to us. This helps tremendously. I would reccommend it for anyone who feels they have something to work on in life.

I purchased this book as a gift for a friend whose birthday is just a few days after my own. I bought one for myself as well, and we agreed work on it at the same time in order to inspire each other to stick to it. It's a great idea, and a nice gift for those who don't normally journal. (I do, but she doesn't.) The process of completing the book gave us something to talk about.
