5.0 out of 5 stars Life Skills opens doors of communication..., November 8, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Life Skills: Keys to Effective Living (Paperback)

I bought this book for myself and found my 21 year-old daughter had picked it up and was participating in the excercises. That was the beginning of a whole new line of communication between us. We have both been affected by the divorce between me and her father years ago and this book was a key to opening the lines of communication between us after all these years. We were able to deal with some important issues at a level we have never reached before. The life skills exercises are so helpful in providing the element of "action" with learning that was so critical to us.

I urge anyone with unresolved issues to try read this book. I think it would be an excellent resource for teens on up.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Emotional Support Book Written For Victims of Abuse, September 1, 2000

By 

KATHLEEN HUDSON (PEORIA, AZ USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Life Skills: Keys to Effective Living (Paperback)

My life has been one of grose alcohol abuse from all sides, both parents were alcoholics, both spouses and numerous friends in between. I attracted to me those that would hurt me. Jill's book helped me identify patterns in my life and understand how I was worthy of having a very different life. After reading the book and applying the principles and seeing who I am, my life has soared. My confidence in who I am has been elevated to new levels.... I am complete with me, and it is wonderful.....

I would recommend Jill's book to anyone who has had any verbal or physical abuse from twisted alcholic thinkers. You do not have to stay a victim nor do you need to remain in situations that corrupt your life. Read this book apply the insights to your life and become free to be who you are....You're worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Life Skills: Keys to Effective Living" is a winner!, August 16, 2000

This review is from: Life Skills: Keys to Effective Living (Paperback)

Jill Raiguel's book, Life Skills: Keys to Effective Living is a comprehensive workbook for developing the skills necessary to create a happy, healthy life. Raiguel has developed a unique quiz that will show the reader exactly how many of the 20 identified life skills are missing. She then goes on to identify specific strategies that can be used to develop that particular skill. I thought this book was great. It's not only for those who have suffered from abuse, Life Skills: Keys to Effective Living is for anyone who wants to create a better life.
