I have long taught that acknowledging and expressing our feelings is healing and empowering. This book provides a powerful road map for exactly how to do it. I highly recommend it. -- Jack Canfield, Co-author of the #1 New York Times bestselling series Chicken Soup for the Soul® and The Success Principles™: How to Get From Where You Are to Where You Want to Be

“Truth Heals” is spot-on accurate about what it takes to heal. Deborah King is a courageous and gifted healer. --Christiane Northrup, MD, author of Mother-Daughter Wisdom (Bantam, 2005), The Wisdom of Menopause (Bantam, revised 2006), and Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom (Bantam, revised 2006)

 “Truth Heals” is a must read for many reasons, not the least of which is that to speak one’s truth on any level requires personal courage and self-esteem.

This book is a must read for every seeker on the path. --Caroline Myss, author of Entering the Castle and Anatomy of the Spirit.

From the Author

They say a book is a labor of love. For me this has certainly been the case. I wrote Truth Heals: What You Hide Can Hurt You because I wanted to reach as many people as possible with the message that I teach in live events: that the truth can set you free. It was my love for people I have never met but whom I know I can help that pushed me to bring this book to print.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not enough truth in the world October 25, 2006

By Birgitte

Format:Hardcover

I'm a tough reader to please, particularly when it comes to self-help, healing, spiritual journeys, that sort of thing. What struck me about Truth Heals is that it is so, so open, direct, straightforward. It respects the reader like few books do. I've been very distressed with the egregious lack of truth in our society today -- in politics, in business, in the media, in religion, in our personal relationships and even within our own personal lives. We lie to each other and we lie to ourselves. Too often we don't see it that way, we think a white lie, or a deception, or just a bit of PR spin on a given issue is ok. It may be, but what Dr. King talks about, in such an open and honest manner, is that continuing to live with these lies or untruths, on whatever level, is ultimately harmful. We all know it, deep inside.

This book is really about making people face the truth about their own lives. To take responsibility for healing themselves instead of suing, blaming, offloading on others. That builds character, and that's what this world sorely needs. Strong, healthy, sane individuals.

Bravo Deborah.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended January 30, 2007

By G. Gendron

Format:Hardcover

So often we hear and speak about "healing" when what we are really hungry for is congruence. Deborah King does a beautiful job of demonstrating just what that means and showing us how being truly and deeply honest with yourself can open the door to a greater sense of aliveness and joy. This book will open your eyes to the many ways we steal our own peace of mind with little white, and even big gnarly green & red lies. Deborah has great compassion and insight into our human condition and writes in a way that allows the reader to apply these insights to his or her own unique situation. A quick and interesting read that will appeal both to the novice spiritual seeker and the seasoned adept.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Gifted Healer January 30, 2007

By Terri Jay

Format:Hardcover

Deborah King has written a mind and heart opening book that will appeal to all who are interested in healing themselves. Since all illness, injury and disease is caused by issues in your tissues, Deborah explains not only how we get sick but also how we can heal by living our truth. This book is enthralling as we watch Deborah go through her own awakening and then healing her childhood damage. In addition, it helps us to realize where we store negative energy in our body, how it can make us sick and then how by releasing it, we can heal. I recommend this book highly to all of my clients in addition to Deborah's workshops. Life changing material!
