Editorial Reviews

Review

Brilliant! This is inspired writing. Given the sensitivity of the questions and issues people will bring to the book, it is completely respectful. People can identify with the case studies and see themselves in the stories. The exercises are profound. Anyone who seriously wants to intervene in patterns of thinking they have in their life will find this to be a remarkable way to come to high ground, find new understanding and different perspective. --Barry Heerman author of Noble Purpose

Cynthia James has written a compassionate and practical book that speaks to us all with wisdom, clarity, and encouragement about healing emotional wounds of the past and living our life s vision with confidence, creativity and triumph. --Michael Bernard Beckwith author of A Manifesto of Peace

"What Will Set You Free" is an amazing journey of the soul. While reading it, I felt as if Cynthia took me by the hand and gently, yet powerfully, led me down the corridors of my past. Using a variety of tools and activities - reading, art, music, movement, writing, meditation, prayer, and deep listening - my previous fears, defenses and blocks revealed themselves. I began seeing them in a new light of understanding and, surprisingly, gratitude. With the guidance and prayerful work offered in this book, I slipped into another realm: the realm of freedom. --Erica Teel

5.0 out of 5 stars abuse recovery with spiritual healing, November 1, 2007

This review is from: What Will Set You Free (Perfect Paperback)

In any abuse situation (physical, emotional, substance) we tend to divorce ourselves from our bodies and our feelings and walk through our lives disconnected from our essence. "What will set you Free" companions the reader every day of their journey to healing. At the beginning of the book the question is asked "If there were no blocks how would you live your life?" What follows is a workbook that is much more than just another self-help book. It is a workbook for life change which will transform the reader from abuse to wholeness. Cynthia James has written an easy to follow road map to reconnection with your true self.

5.0 out of 5 stars If violence in your past is affecting your life today - get this book!, April 24, 2008

Chica "Go BSU Broncos!!!" (Boise, Idaho) - See all my reviews

This review is from: What Will Set You Free (Perfect Paperback)

The author lived with a violent upbringing too - being hurt and worse quite frequently. It affected everything in her life until she decided that "yesterday" wasn't going to affect "tomorrow" anymore!

She wrote this book as a gift back to the world to help others accept and transcend the pain that brought them this far. The program and meditations are a safe path through facing the past and releasing their hold on your future. You owe this to yourself! You're worth it!
