Finding Your Soul Mate - the joy of great sex, true love and lasting intimacy [Perfect Paperback]

Sparkle Phillips (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 30, 2009

Sparkle Phillips' last boyfriend dumped her flat, and that was the greatest gift he could have ever given her. That breakup sent her life into a tailspin where she was forced to examine what had been happening with the men in her life for the past 45 years.

Sparkle went through an amazingly revealing process that helped her destroy all the 'old programming' she had about men and figure out why every relationship she'd had with men were basically carbon copies of each other. Once the culprit had been found, the false foundation of 'love' in her life was released and rebuilt. Now she is happily married to a man who can only be described as her soul mate and her partner in love, life, work and more.

Sparkle is a systems analyst. So being an observer, seeing patterns and determining solutions is what she does for a living and she does it well. When she realized her experience actually had duplicatable steps, she decided to re-live and re-analyze the steps it took her to release the past so that she could embrace the future. Her story is funny, insightful and very identifiable. If you're still having troubles in your love life, then this book will give you "Aha Moments" and help you realize some of the false foundations you've built your love life on.

Whether you're a man or woman - looking for a man or a woman, these principles apply.

It is an easy read, loaded with humor and epiphanies. Enjoy...

Review

What I really loved about your "Finding Your Soul Mate" was that it was down to earth. It was easy to read and understand. Nothing in it was difficult, and having Sparkle's experiences as examples helped provide a real-world, step-by-step process that allowed me to reach my goals too. I now have the woman of my dreams. I didn't have to 'settle for less' as my new love is everything I dreamed of (plus things that I didn't and that made her that much better)!

I highly recommend "Finding Your Soul Mate" to anyone desiring a true relationship. This is a must read book! --Roger House, the angel whisperer

About the Author

Sparkle Phillips' last boyfriend dumped her flat, and that was the greatest gift he could have ever given her. That breakup sent her life into a tailspin where she was forced to examine what had been happening with the men in her life for the past 45 years. Sparkle is a pen name, so that this author can remain anonymous and tell the WHOLE story, without having to sugar coat it - so save face or to spare someone else's feelings. She is now happily married to the person she finally made time in her life for and he was able to fulfill every desire she ever had. If she hadn't gone through this process first, however, this relationship would have never been possible. Learn from her example and duplicatable system. It is Sparkle's greatest wish (and her alter-ego's) that this book serves you well and it helps you find out what in your past is blocking your future. The answer may surprise you! Sparkle never thought Brussel Sprouts was at the core of her relationship problems, but it was... Enjoy...

More About the Author

I'm not going to use my real name - because I am well enough known - that if my name was known, all these men could be angry with me for telling my story the way it was (for me).

Anonymity will give me the freedom to tell my story completely and openly without fear of someone else's feelings. If I had to worry about someone else's feelings, I might be tempted to sugar coat, water down an interpretation or spare them a harsh criticism.

That being said, my toughest criticism will be on myself. I strive to live a completely empowered life and will never claim victim status. I am who I am because of the experiences that brought me thus far on my path.

To paraphrase Richard Bach (one of my favorite authors) - "You gave your life to become who you are today, was it worth it?" My answer is yes. I hope yours is too.

This review is from: Finding Your Soul Mate - the joy of great sex, true love and lasting intimacy (Love and Money) (Kindle Edition)

Then Finding Your Soul Mate will be a really worthwhile book for you.

This book was truly surprising in its presentation, and while Sparkle told her story, I found myself with parallel epiphanies about the men I dated. I could relate to her stories, and I laughed at some of them, however, they made me squirm a little the next time I looked myself in the mirror...

This was actually quite a fun read, with unexpected depth in a couple of places. I found it truly helpful.

So, Soul Mate, are you listening? I'm closer to finding you than I ever was before. Sincerely, Full of Hope...

Books To Believe In "Publisher of great books" (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Finding Your Soul Mate - the joy of great sex, true love and lasting intimacy (Perfect Paperback)

it was a fun read! Usually the perspective of relationship books are about the differences between the sexes and how to overcome them. This book took a completely fresh angle and let the reader into this authors private struggles and life lessons from her relationships. "It all started with the brussell sprouts" as a chapter title in a relationship book brought back so many memories for our staff, we could all relate to a little girl who had been misled about what 'love' was.

About the time you think you understand what is going on in Sparkle's life, she goes very deep and reveals inner processes that she used (and you can too) to finally release the bogus beliefs we've all been carrying around, so we can look at our love lives with renewed hope and possibility.

It is deep, meaningful, fun, entertaining and insightful. This book definitely passes our litmus test - "Do it make the world a better place?" You bet it does!

Enjoy!

I loved the new perspective this book gave me. It made me look on things in my life in a new way. It was a simple shift - amazingly simple.

I don't like to be a spoiler, but I'll tell you just one of the ways my life changed by using something in the book: Now, when I roll over in bed, I don't feel the spot beside me and think of it as empty and that I'm alone. Now I know, I'm just making space for the person I want to lay there with me. When I reach over in the middle of the night, instead of feeling sad and empty, I can smile and go back to a peaceful sleep, knowing he's real and he'll be beside me before I know it!

Amazingly simple shifts... many many valuable insights. Loved it!
