5.0 out of 5 stars Empowering Women : Every Woman's Guide to Successful Living., April 28, 2000

By	Gina Hinds (Marina, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This is a quick easy read, but very motivational. She has some great quotes geared towards promoting women's self esteem and in the back of the book gives reference to other books that she recommends. A book worth reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great motivation!, February 27, 2007

By	Free Spirit - See all my reviews

In Empowering Women, Louise Hay highlights attitudes which women and girls have been socially conditioned to have, but which can interfere with our ability to love, honor and respect ourselves. She also teaches us how to break free of these attitudes. I especially love her Eleven Commandments For Women given in this book. I have these 'commandments' hanging on my wall and just by following them I have made great strides in positively changing my life. I'm grateful for this book and I highly recommend it to every woman. Peace and love!

3.0 out of 5 stars Old-lady attitude - but heck, she's an old lady!, January 28, 2001

By	B. Doro "Doro" (Mt. Bethel, PA United States) - See all my reviews

Louise Hay is starting to sound her age here - while there's some useful and motivating thoughts and information, such as the chapter on Choosing Positive Thoughts and Beliefs, and the chapter on Good Health, overall the tone is kind of "ancient". How many American women under 55 struggle with the self-esteem issues highlighted in this book? Not many, I'd wager! No one of my generation (Baby Boomer) has any trouble determining their self-worth REGARDLESS of their relationship with a man!? For my money, this book isn't up to Louise's usual par and comes off as almost patronizingly dull at points.
