More About the Author

In the late 1970's I retired from the advertising world and began a one year search to see if there was a God or more to the point a set of principles which could bring me a happy life. My basic question was "is life just random or does it have a pattern". I expected the answer to be random but much to my surprise I was introduced to an inner voice which lead me to various unique places and amazing experiences. I was so intrigued I have continued to go deeper and deeper into this adventure. I never intended to write books or even share my experiences because many were very personal. Quite by accident a book was born which I call Listening. Three more books have followed. These books are mainly about my experiences and what I have learned. I do not seek to tell others how to live or what to do. The only advice I have for others is to seek within yourself for answers to your questions and to follow your inner urgings. Life can be a wonderful adventure. Love is the only power. Lee Coit

4.0 out of 5 stars Actually Relying on Your Inner Guidance System, October 3, 2002

By 

Terri J. Cornish "Intuition & Business Coach ... (Reno NV United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Listening: How to Increase Awareness of Your Inner Guide (Paperback)

This book, and sequels "Accepting" and "Being", as well as corresponding audio tapes by Lee Coit have been the main keys to unlocking the secrets of using my own Inner Guidance system. I have been on a path of self-discovery for over thirty years and have developed a true connection with my inner wisdom to a point of total trust and confidence in the guidance I am given. What Coit does is explain how to do this in a simple and easily useable manner. Applying his material I went from using my inner guidance as a curiosity, to knowing that I could totally rely on it. Sometimes this is in feelings that something I am just starting to do doesn't feel right, or it feels oh so good. Sometimes the answers come as I ask questions in journaling and the answers flow as I write. And other times I'll ask a question in my head and I know what I am hearing is my inner guide talking to me. And absolutely every time the feelings I get are absolutely right on. If I decide to not heed the advice, every time I wish that I had listened. And that is exactly the first key- being open to LISTENING.

Lee Coit decided to take a year to prove to himself that either the universe was running by chaos and total random chance or that indeed there was a pattern, a wise intelligence, God, Spirit, Universal Knowledge, what ever your own personal word for it is, that we could tap
into for guidance. If he was leaning one way or another, it was that the Universe was run by chaos; but being an analytical thinker he wanted his own proof. His explorations during that year resulted in this book "Listening" and his conclusion that beyond a doubt that there is
a "Source of Truth" and that it is easily accessible by all of us. This is also my own personal experience.

In the early 90s I had the great good fortune to attend a seminar given by Lee and sponsored by Interfaith Fellowship in NYC. Interfaith Fellowship is sadly defunct but Lee Coit is still around. I have a great deal of respect for Lee. In 3 thin books he said all that he had to say and then stopped publishing. There are so many authors that churn out book after book that don't really say anything new. At the time of the seminar, I didn't really understand what Lee was talking about. Over the years, I've gotten better at Listening and recently I went through a sudden shift where I seem to be able to Listen most of the time. My life is changing radically for the better and it's full of fun 'coincidences' (there is no such thing as a coincidence). Read this book and apply it and you, too, may be able to radically change your life for the better.
