What a great self-guided journal. This book is filled with writing prompts about yourself, your body, your relationships, your solitude, your past, your world views, your nature affiliation and finally your life goals. Most of the prompts offer just enough space to write something profound without rambling on and on. A fantastic book to fill in and leave for your family should anything happen to you. So spend some time getting to know yourself and leave a trace of your existence along the way.

By 

Anne B. Jones (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Book of Self-Acquaintance (Guided Journals) (Hardcover)

This wonderful journal is a gret resource for learning about yourself. It is more detailed than most, requiring its reader to participate in focusing inward. Its extensive questions can lead to expanding self-awareness and self knowledge. I heartily recommend it.

By A Customer

This review is from: The Book of Self-Acquaintance (Guided Journals) (Hardcover)

I found this book an extremely usefull guide in discovering myself in recovery. It brings you along on a self guided journey of discovery of your true soul, enabling you to have a more satisfying and intimate relationship with both your self, and perhaps for the first time, others. For me, this book was a valuble tool towards developing and completing a searching and fearless moral inventory.
