From AudioFile

Condensed from a live seminar recording, this program allows the listener to hear the author's views on some important issues and to experience him in a more personal way. He makes his points by sharing poignant stories and by engaging intimately with the seminar participants. The live segments are interrupted periodically by studio recordings of Walsch elaborating a point or reading from one of his Conversation With God books to the sound of quiet music. The message is clear enough--that relationships work better when you give instead of receive. For many listeners, the author's comments and personal intensity will be fascinating additions to our understanding of Neale Walsch the man, as well as his message.

This review is from: Neale Donald Walsch on Relationships (Hardcover)

Walsch's little book on Relationships is amazing. This is a quick read - you will probably finish it in two hours or less, but it is packed with insight, honesty, humor, and its wisdom will touch your soul. Walsh starts out by telling the reader that: "Relationship is the most important experience in our lives. Without it, we are nothing. Literally." Since we engage in so many different kinds of relationships, Walsch gently points out that, "Being in a relationship has everything to do with what you choose to put into it, not what you can get out of it." Walsch has the reader looking at relationships from a higher perspective, and not a selfish one, and one will really stop and ponder, when reading and absorbing his words. Walsch explains how relationships are sacred, as is our experiences of being in a relationship. He says, "Love is a decision, not a reaction." After the infatuation wears off, what does one have left - A genuine relationship, or an empty example of instant gratification?

After finishing the book, I came away with saying, "Yes! - This is how it should be!" Walsch makes several references to his relationship with his wife Nancy and how their relationship, empowers, builds, and creates, and does not limit, tear down or hurt the other person. He asks the reader, " What can we empower? What can we create?" The reader has no choice, but to ask her/himself those very questions. Is your relationship empowering you and allowing you to create the whole, possible you? I really loved this quote, "Relationships that are based in real love - a love that is true - are relationships that are totally and completely free. Freedom is the essence of love. When we love another, we never seek to limit or restrict them in any why whatsoever. Love does not limit, does not own, does not hold in, but expands, lets go, and releases, the grandest part of who all of us are."

This book will open up your heart, your mind and your soul. The words are pure and simple, but they aim right for your heart. Your perspective will change, as will your desire for what your soul is seeking in a true relationship. Walsch, in a subtle way, imparts to the reader, that one does not have to settle for second or third best. The heart knows - one just has to listen, and one has to be secure in themselves, to not settle, and to only accept the highest calling of the heart. For as Walsch says, "Relationship is the only experience in life that brings you an experience of yourself in life. Not only do I know myself out of my relationship with you, but I literally define myself as well. I can only see in me what I see in you".

Pretty powerful words - pretty powerful, heart-felt book. I highly recommend this book for those who are seeking and for those that know, that there is something more powerful, sacred, and meaningful in a relationship and nothing else will do.

This review is from: Neale Donald Walsch on Relationships (Audio Cassette)

Neale is an amazing person to listen to. He speaks to the soul. I listen to the tape often and can't seem to get enough of it. I always find something new about myself, something more to love. He has a way with words that makes you accept yourself and in turn love you for who you are, unconditional love. Without relationships, you cannot define yourself. I would highly recommend this tape to anyone on a spiritual quest.

This review is from: Neale Donald Walsch on Relationships (Hardcover)

If you've ever wondered about relationships and all the shoulds our society loads a relationship down with, this is a must-read. Be prepared to think beyond concepts like submission, and to explore concepts of mutual respect, equal worth, cooperation and consideration - characteristics that can be found when reading definitions of love but so often overlooked when discussing marriage and relationships.
