5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Enchanting Book!, February 21, 2001
I enjoyed reading Dr. Holstein's first book, THE ENCHANTED SELF, A Positive Therapy. However, RECIPES FOR ENCHANTMENT, The Secret Ingredient is YOU! is a book that is really for everyone with a step away from more of the clinical aspects of 'enchantment'.

It was a joy to read her enchanting and motivational collection stories and the follow up exercises allowed me relate her messages to my own experiences. I actually learned how to bring more joy into my life by tapping into my hidden potential through memory exploration. It's a great concept that really works.

In a nutshell it's a book that you want to pick up when you are looking for some heart-warming inspiration. She has a great flair for story telling and weaves lots of common-sense into her beautifully structured short stories. I loved it! I think women, especially, will appreciate this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rediscover Yourself with Dr. Holstein's Enchanted Recipes, July 11, 2001
By Carla Boggess (Ocean, NJ USA) - See all my reviews
We all remember special moments in our lives but this book teaches us how to include those feelings as a more integral part of our daily lives. A magical book that leads the reader through self-discovery with practical examples to spark the "enchantment" process. Dr. Holstein's experiences and professional expertise are reflected in her writing and I strongly encourage those who wish a deeper enjoyment as they travel through life to pick up this wonderful book. Different and thought provoking!
