Product Description
The Book of Comforts is a compelling, inspirational and practical guide to putting real comfort into our highly stressed lives. Using cloud- and sunset-evoking full color original art as a background, the book offers meaningful substance in a strikingly attractive form. Each powerful six-page chapter starts with an inspirational quote, followed by two pages of bulleted tips, two pages of anecdotes from the personable authors – a man and a woman, each with their own challenges – and closes with a page of fascinating survey responses. This timeless and truly comforting self-help guide flows with beauty, warmth, humor and helpful ideas – all in attainable doses.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comfort for the Spirit, April 9, 2007
This lovely book by Patricia Alexander and Michael Burgos gives the reader exactly what the title promises, comfort for your spirit, body and soul. The stories and vignettes seem so real that they bring you to a special place where readers can just be, and get in touch with their inner spirit and desires. I have taken the Book of Comforts with me to doctor's appointments where I know I will have to sit and wait. Reading the lovely prose and gentle messages makes the time pass quickly and pleasurably. I have even had others ask me about the book and then copy down the title so they can find their own "Comfort". I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking for peace and acceptance in their life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Life Enhancing Reading , March 12, 2007
This book is truly life enhancing in that it is very helpful in the practicality and ease with which we can comfort our spirit, body, and soul through the examples, affirmations, and IDEAS given. Other words to describe the work of the authors and artist are inspirational, insightful, healing, creative, uplifting, and fun! A definite read and a wonderful book for you, family, friends, co-workers, etc.
