It's a book to read slowly with an open mind and an open spirit.

While the concepts seem simple on the surface, I found myself reading and re-reading paragraphs and still coming away with the feeling that I wasn't fully grasping them. When this happens, there's usually one of two things going on; I'm either overthinking, or I'm resisting (and sometimes it's both!).

Ultimately, like with all of Cheri's books, I got more out of it because I had to slow down, because she challenges me to examine my conditioning, not in a negative way, but constructively, and with the intent of acheiving a greater level of peace and compassion.

Interesting and interactive book. I enjoyed reading the book and doing the activities. Direct and to the point, a must read for everyone.

I was reading an article that cited a passage from this book and touted its usefulness, so I bit.

My expectations, based on the article, were that this book woujld be a tremendous source of personal help for me. I was excited to get the book open it up, and became angry at realizing I had been taken for my money. I fully expect that the positive reviews are friends of the author.

This book was worse than useless as it was extremely aggravating, and I am out $9. The highlight of my evening will be throwing it out, in the trash can outdoors.

The one positive of the experience, was that the book itself was in excellent condition, and the shipping was very fast.
