Excellent Book!,

This review is from: You Are What You Say: The Proven Program that Uses the Power of Language to Combat Stress, Anger, and Depression (Paperback)
If you have found Understanding Computers and Cognition by Dr Fernando Flores or the Tree of knowledge from Dr Humberto Maturana difficult to understand, this book is for you. Dr Budd does an excellent job of articulating some of the world's greatest thinkers of our time in an easy to read format. I have been studying this work for 15 years and think that this is an excellent primer. The fact that he relates it to solving health problems such as headaches, jaw and neck pain, insomnia, stomach and bowel problems, lack of energy, high blood pressure, anxiety, and depression is a bonus. Our language is inherently related to our health.

This review is from: You Are What You Say: The Proven Program that Uses the Power of Language to Combat Stress, Anger, and Depression (Paperback)
This book will show you how your language reveals the way you see the world and how this either opens or closes possibilities for you to be successful, to love and to be loved. This book can change your life, if you read it, do the practices and watch your language.

Absolutely wonderful and a very important book.,

This review is from: You Are What You Say: The Proven Program that Uses the Power of Language to Combat Stress, Anger, and Depression (Paperback)
I wish I had read Dr. Budd's book earlier in my life. I came very close to dying once, lost a kidney, because I trusted the professional opinion of the doctor before I learned to trust my own feelings. Dr. Budd shows us how to have greater awareness and to take greater responsibility in our own healing process. The exercises in the book are important to move you from just reading to experiencing and beginning to change your life. This book should be mandatory reading at every medical school.
