 Great message for daily living July 21, 2006

I personally believe in the power of daily practice of meditation and focussing on the moment at hand. Being mindful of whats in front of us is the key to life. This book helps with the task of living one day at a time and growing each moment. Highly recommended. Also, would love if you checked out my book which is similar, "Your Daily Walk with the Great Minds of the Past and Present." Thanks and enjoy your daily journey.

I discovered this book years ago and have shared it with others over the years. I literally have given away my copy when a friend or acquantance could benefit more at the time. It is nice to find someone who is willing to share their knowledge with the rest of us.
An excellent reference April 11, 2006

I had been thinking about buying a book on this topic for some time to further my self improvement process.
This book is about so much more than letting go. It is also about personal power. When you let go of something, it loses its power to control you, and you move forward with your life in a more empowering way.
This book is set up with daily meditations on different issues. If you were to open any page at random, you would probably find something very useful. It is easily read, and as you read can feel the shift in your perception, as these simple to follow principles make a lot of sense.
If you are like most people, there are plenty of things you need to let go of, and you probably have no idea what some of these are. The first step is to identify that a change needs to be made.
Here are many ideas you can use to improve your life. There are too many for me to list in a review, but here are a few biggies:
Attachment, guilt, blame, seeking appoval, codependency, fear, doubt, controlling, family issues, perfection, martyrdom, denial, grief, anger, victimhood.
You replace these non serving beliefs with something more empowering, as you start to practice detachment, self approval, develop an abundance mentality, an attitude of gratitude etc.
There is a principle in psychology that if you do what you have always done, you will get what you have always gotten.
So,let go and move forward. Imagine how pleased you will be when you have made a lasting change in your life. All lasting changes in your outer reality are accompanied by changes in internal perception.
I highly recommend this book. If you were to find this review helpful, please click yes.

I was given this book by a friend who saw me going through some difficult times. This book is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! The words you find in these daily meditations apply to those of us who are "codependent" in other ways too! It applies to everyday life. You HAVE to get this book if you want some uplifting.

You don't have to know the 12 Steps to follow the daily meditations. It's a nice way to start your day, or to take a break in the day. Not "touchy-feely", so accessible to all people. Each daily topic varies in scope. Sometimes I open it up to the reading and say, "Wow. That is exactly what I need today."
