5.0 out of 5 stars This book has changed my life., September 18, 1999

By A Customer

Being ACOA I first got this book about 12 or so years ago and have been reading it daily with my morning meditation. It has helped me shake a lot the baggage I brought out of my alcoholic home and to be the person I want to be playing by MY rules.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's Not Just for ACOA Any More, June 26, 2000

By A Customer

I am not the adult child of an alcoholic. I am, however, the product of a dysfunctional family, and recommend daily use of this book for all who struggle with the self-image issues born of family (or non-family!) histories that are fraught with obsessive or abusive behavior.

This is a wonderful work; a work to USE, not just to read. Each time through, these affirmations grow in meaning. Take the time to feel these truths each time you work with one: Imagine yourself owning -- actually believing and feeling -- that which graces these pages. Regardless of the origin of your pain, these affirmations are a true and helping gift.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best "Affirmation Format" book I have used., July 19, 2005

By	M. Brown (Florida, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This order represented my 2nd copy of this book. My first was purchased approximately 15 years ago--I wore it out. As an ACOA, I have owned and routinely used several day-to-day, affirmation/devotional type books. All have been very helpful; however, I find this one so much more healing for me as it speaks so directly to the problems I have experienced with periodic depression, hopelessness, fear and anxiety. Rokelle Lerner obviously knows this "syndrome" thoroughly and how to help one reach for and attain the positive thoughts and attitudes that lead to healing.
