Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Businessman and philanthropist Ellis admits that this workbook "sounds like a late-night television advertisement for an expensive self-help program." He'd like people who are already successful to become more so and shows how readers can create their ideal life. One will find ample material here, loosely organized into 12 "success strategies" (e.g., No. 3, "Move Toward Love," gives readers five reasons to celebrate mistakes). These strategies touch on many topics that are dealt with more clearly and completely in other books. Like Winnie the Pooh, Ellis loves to ponder rather than present concrete advice. He also encourages readers to keep a journal and complete fill-in-the-blank exercises. An optional purchase, especially for public libraries that own Ellis's similar Creating Your Future: 5 Steps to the Life of Your Dreams.

Review
Immediately after finishing Falling Awake, I ordered one copy for each of my staff so that they can read it before our next retreat. I expect to make reading this book part of every new employee's orientation. --Alex Counts, President, Grameen Foundation USA
Falling Awake is a detailed, comprehensive invitation to the sweetness of possibility, so credible and compelling that you read it at your own risk. You simply will not be the same person nor lead the same life if you read and complete this book. --Paul G. Hawken, Founder of Smith & Hawken, Author of The Ecology of Commerce and Growing a Business
After reading Falling Awake, I feel cleaner about almost everything. Even truths I thought I already knew, seem more natural and easily attainable. This book is a beautiful presentation of some wondrous thoughts about the things that matter most. --Marianne Williamson, Author of Illuminate and The Healing of America

A must-read - and must-live book!,

This review is from: Falling Awake: Creating the Life of Your Dreams (Paperback)
CAUTION: Don't read this book if you're content with your current way of being. Following the techniques and ideas from this book will virtually assure you of a fuller, richer appreciation for life!
This book is not only transformational for the soul but beautiful to the sight. The breathtaking photos add to an already amazing publication. The book is broken down into lessons and exercises which cause you to rethink your entire life, and guide you lovingly through uncharted soul territory. Following the 12 Success Strategies promises you a great new start in your life, free from the constraints of your past. I've used the meditations and exercises with groups and individually and they have been equally successful. I'm transformed ... and a huge Dave Ellis fan!

Both visually and mentally stimulating book,

This review is from: Falling Awake: Creating the Life of Your Dreams (Paperback)
Just finished reading this book because it's required material for the David Ellis Falling Awake Workshop that I will attend in a few days.
Although it's not a hard cover edition, it has been designed to be visually stimulating in its imagery and tactically stimulating in the quality of the paper. Needless to say the content by David Ellis is mentally stimulating and challenging. You can just read it and not do the exercises and journalling in each chapter, but that would be cheating yourself of a life changing process. Get the book. Do the work. Be transformed.

There are no words to describe this book! It is a thought provoking, life changing workbook that does not show up like homework but like creating your dreams and stretching your imagination beyond your grown up dogmatic adult self! If you are looking to move ahead and remember who you are and/or be the best you can be purchase it and let the fun begin!
