I picked this book up in the library and was surprised to find a wonderful resource. Every few pages, I stopped to write down a quote - there would be a tidbit of wisdom shining a light on another emotional snag from my past. Robert Holden nails it! It's like having a 6-month psychotherapy session with a gifted and insightful therapist. If you read self-help books, this is a must-read! Although the themes are familiar, the perspective is fresh and life-changing.
