Kerry Armstrong (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 2003

Simple and practical, this book encourages readers to better understand the relationships with everyone in their life—from loved ones to challenging and difficult relationships—by paying attention to their feelings. Creating a spiritual journey of self-reflection, this keepsake gives readers the opportunity to ask questions such as How does this person make me feel? Do I feel comfortable with them? Do I trust them? and Do I hide my real feelings or am I open when I'm with them? Thought-provoking and beautifully illustrated, this distinctive work provides a unique exercise in personal freedom as well as the opportunity to discover and liberate feelings about friends, family, and oneself.

The Circles presents such a lovely way to look at relationships. I enjoyed turning every page and quietly contemplating the many people who have come in and out of my life. It helped me fondly remember some and it let me gently let go of others. Everyone should have a copy of this book next to their bed or readily available to share with a friend.

This is a remarkable book, with every page beautifully done.

The book's methodology for self-understanding is non-threatening and user friendly - but amazingly insightful. Clearly, Kerry Armstrong is an perceptive author as well as a successful actress. And the publisher has done a elegant job on the binding and illustrations throughout - the way books used to be made! This is a book that is a joy to hold and peruse - and at a very reasonable price.

I have given The Circles to a number of friends, and I plan to keep some copies in my "just in case" gift drawer, since it is appropriate for anyone and everyone.

I don't normally enjoy "self-help" books or find them particularly useful. But "The Circles" is wonderfully straight-forward, illuminating and gorgeous to look at, too. Its warm, familiar tone invites one in, and I found great value in the processes presented in this book.
