5 stars (Great resource for helping!) - This book and the accompanying workbook are great resources for the support groups I have led for the past 5 years now. There are many women whose lives have been changed as a result, including my own. 5 stars (Brought great healing) - Last year, I worked my way through the book and study guide. When I first began reading the book, I wanted to throw it across the room, and was angry that the author would even insinuate that I was sinning. Well, he was right. I was so filled with self-contempt and rage, and so chained up in the prison of abuse, that I would almost rather rail at him and run, than admit that I was existing in a state that was eating me up, inside and out. I had been holding myself separate from God, not allowing Him to bring healing for the past horrors in my life, dead from the numbness I had created to protect myself from pain. Through this study, and the pain, tears and difficult struggles that accompanied it, great healing has been taking place in my life. I am thankful for Dr. Allender's obedience in writing this study, and I am grateful to our Lord for using it to begin my journey of restoration and healing. I can highly recommend this book to someone who is tired of living a life behind the prison walls of childhood sexual abuse, someone who is willing to go through the pain of 'looking at' the abuse one last time and grieving for the child that was destroyed inside himself/herself. If you are willing to finally lay all of the pain and hurt and shame and rage down on God's altar, this book may be what you are looking for. 5 stars (Diagnosing and Treating the Wounded Heart) - "The Wounded Heart" is a classic text on the understanding and treatment of the sexual abuse victim. Dan Allender writes from a foundation of biblical insight, psychological research, and counseling experience. Allender is quick to defend abuse victims and to help them to understand that they were not guilty for their abuse....

5 stars (Magical...and advanced!!) - This book is not for everyone...it is very advanced even though there are reviews that say it's dull and repetitive...don't read with the mind...listen with the being! He is a great spiritual teacher.. One of the very best. I have read many spiritual books and feel that I'm half way there...I totally understood the book from beginning to end. It's very simple and clear...so effective..it is my bible. But don't get confused...Eckart Tolle is telling you all the things you already know, but your mind refuses to accept! Remember, you are NOT your mind, you never were. I'd like to recommend a wonderful bit of writing from Ken Wilber entitled 'From here to infinity in 3 pages...' I think that's the title. He really is advanced..very technical, but he explains also about being! Well done to a brilliant writer. He is not talking from the ego, but from his being...to your being...and it's real, when you let it be. Don't try to understand it, LIVE IT! 5 stars (Transformative Audio-Book) - I listened to the audio version of this book over a one week period, mostly as I was driving around. It had a profound effect on my life. I have practiced and taught meditation for many years, and a few times at retreats I have entered what are called ecstatic spiritual states. Listening to this recording brought me back to those states each time. If they were written the words he is speaking might or might not have that power. I have never read the typed version, so I don't know if it is the writing itself. But I cannot justify removing even one star from my rating of this item. There is simply nothing to fault it for when it delivers more than what one reasonably expects to get out of a book. The book will give you an experience of what he is talking about. What more do you want? Isn't the point of knowledge to gain access to the experience? So what if your mind can't eloquently explain advanced spiritual theories to others af...

5 stars (Tapping the Healer Within) - Excellent and easy to use. A must for people who feel that the body has the power to heal itself from inside and are tied of the medical professions inadequacies. 5 stars (A therapy that works) - I am a Medical Doctor of Ecuador and I`ve been using the method for a few months and it really works in the percentages that Dr Callahan mentions in his book. It is a self help book, I think that the reason why some of the people who mention that the method didn't work on them was that in some cases the help of a professional trained in the method is required. Most of the time you can practice in your own home, but other times you really need help, the acupressure points need to be tapped in the rigth spot, if you tapp a little far away you are not producing the effect that you need. So give a try, if it is not effective look for someone trained in the method. Fernando Camacho MD 5 stars (Caution....must have an OPEN MIND to use properly) - I find it terribly sad that so many have ego problems with using and understanding these techniques. They are simple, profound, and effective IF USED PROPERLY. Roger Callahan is the "godfather" of EFT, and Energy Medicine in general. Here he shares his exciting discoveries as a practical guide for self-help of a multitude of issues confronting the average human. One of the primary steps to using this effectively for yourself is to keep your mind steadily focused on the issue you are attempting to heal. Since most of us have trouble with this type of "one pointed" focus (our minds can bounce around at lightening speed!), we may have trouble getting results, and consider this a failure. It isn't! As a suggestion to the person with the blushing problem...a focus on the "feeling" that comes before the actual blushing would most likely work. However, it sounds like this person has a lot of trouble with embarassment in general....and may need to work on a multitude of aspects before getting relief. I find...

5 stars (Pronoia) - Amazing. I was just thinking the same thoughts! Actually quite a bit of it makes a lot of sense. There is a bit of "weirdness' to it, but since I'm a bit weird myself, I kind of like it. I'm recommending it to a few select friends, folks that are as "strange and wonderful" as I am. 5 stars (Pronoia and me) - Every time I pick up this book and start to read, my mood changes. I can be a gloomy guss at times and these wise words pull me right out of the shadows. I begin to feel lighter and less worried about the state of the world. I feel hope and maybe even start to hum a ditty. That's enough for me to recommend this book to you. Love to you all, tim 5 stars (Give Me More) - This is the perfect book to give as a gift, to your friends, enemies, family, and don't forget yourself. Full of stuff to make you feel good to be you now as you read the contemporary anecdotes that are consistently smart and constantly full of surprises. Of course, anyone who knows Rob Brezsny's work doesn't need to be convinced at all. Rob Brezsny, if you're reading this, I love you. Thank you for being born. ...

5 stars (Explosive) - This book has helped me tremendously ! Have you ever felt" stuck in a rut" in your life.Stuck financially,job wise just your whole outlook on life? Well this book will literaly blow you out of that rut and set you on a whole new path.Just be ready to commit some time and positive energy and your on your way ! 5 stars (A dynamic life changing read) - One of the most impressive things about this book is that it hits home in such a way that it makes you believe and want to believe more. You want to be prosperous, you want to make life changing decision. It is written in a way that is easy reading and I found reading a chapter a day for my first read worked well. Then I went back and read a chapter and set to work on issues involved in that chapter. I have and still recommend this book to everyone, to everyone who has a dream, and just needs that extra push in the right direction. It is a wonderful spiritual and powerful book. 5 stars (Classically dynamic) - Catherine Ponder, a Unity minister, is one of the pioneers of today's "create your own reality" phenomenon. This book is one of the first I read in this genre, way back in the early 70's. The principles are still true today and provide a solid foundation for prosperous living. Anecdotal, experiential and inspirational. Open the book at random for a quick reminder of who you are and your connection to the universal Divine principles. ...

5 stars (Ask and it is Given) - Received the book in record time and in great shape 5 stars (Truth comes in many different packages) - I say thank you to the non-physical entities that came through Esther Hicks. This book has changed my life. 5 stars (Human Being's Users Manual) - This is not a religious book, - it a technical manual, the Human Being's Users Manual that was supposed to come with us when we were born. It explains how we get, what we get in life, and how to change it. This book should be taught in schools to all our children. Since reading it, I have allowed myself to experience joy, over and over again. And I know how to get it back if it slips away. Don't waste your time with other religious or spirtual books - start here with this one! Thank you Abraham, Ester and Jerry. ...

5 stars (A book for anyone searching to find themselves.) - This book will open your eyes to the things you sometimes can't see about yourself. A book that explains how God sees you and how you should view God. 3 stars (Falls Short) - McGee goes through a lot of pages to talk about various beliefs and counterpoints them well with God's solutions. However, the book is woefully short on practical instruction on how to change your false belief thinking into spiritual truths. I don't disagree with what he has to say. I just wish he had said more about how to combat the false beliefs we spend a lifetime learning. 5 stars (Awesome Book!) - Our church used this book in a class setting. I absolutely recommend this book to anyone who feel that their life is insignificant. According this book, Mr. McGee points out that God says that our lives are signigicant and that we have a purpose. Even when we fail, God still loves us. It has made an impact on my life. I have begun to trust God more and know that he loves me not based on my performance, but because he loves me for who I am. I will fail in life and so will you. Always remember that when we feel like punishing ourselves, God is there to help us up. That is what this book is all about: How significant you are to God and to others around you, even through the tough times. ...

5 stars (My favorite bible.) - This bible is a must for anyone in recovery. My favorite bible, helps me to remember where I came from. 5 stars (Outstanding Bible) - I own many good Bibles, but this one is in a class by itself. It's directly relevant to day-to-day life. It's outstanding! This Bible deserves more thatn a five-star rating. 5 stars (Nothing Short of God's Miracle (INFINITY STARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!)) - This Bible gives the Word of God to those going through recovery in a translation that is easily applicable to today's readers' lifes and is easily read and understood by those who read it. It also supplies readers with all the footnotes used in the translation. But what makes this Bible stand out from any others is the amount of devotional material it contains. Each of the 66 books has reflections on recovery at the beginning and then end of the book. Also, it contains footnotes with recovery reflections on almost every passage of scripture imaginable! The Bible gives readers 84 12 step devotionals, as well as numerous devotionals on the 8 principles of recovery (the beattitudes) and the serenity prayer. It has an abundant index of topical references that anyone could use. I have only been in recovery for about a month, but this Bible has given me profound insight to the 12 steps and has been a key tool in aiding my recovery. I am thoroughly convinced that the Bible is anyone's key to recovery, and this Bible is an almost necessary item to complete that faith-based recovery. I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY reccommend this Bible, and if I could give it an infinite number of stars, I would!!!!! ...

5 stars (Power of Joy) - Like attracts Like. The Universe models this law of physics. Sandy and this book, Wildly Wealthy Fast, offer an option of being joyful and grateful in our daily life. These attributes attract quality LIFE. Learning to have a joyful and grateful relationship with money in today's world where so much harm is generated by the misuse of money, creates this work as a gift for PEACE and a contribution for a safe world for our children. 4 stars (Wildly Wealthy) - In what I have read from this book so far it has changed me for the better. Up until I began reading the book I was very negative without realising and so when something good did happen I was so wrapped up in the bad cycle I was in that I didn't notice. Now since reading the book I have changed my way of seeing things and a lot of good has been happening it really changed my mindset to how I think, I will read it over and over and recommend it for anyone wanting to be rich (don't we all) or even for people who feel very low, as it really retrains you mind to look for the good in every situation. 5 stars (Never Never Quit!!) - I have over 200 personal development books and this is the one that I have read and reread and am totally devoted to. I aim to read from it every day. I shall continue to reread it and follow the steps on pages 216 to 220 until I achieve prosperity in health, wealth, happiness and love with abundance. This is a book that I would wholeheartedly reccommend to every single person. Joy Keillor, Teacher S.A. ...

5 stars (Enlightenment / Liberation Made Easy) - Dr. Chopra has expressed, in a patient, loving way, how the mystic's path is becoming available to everyone ... through quantum physics, many ancient understandings of the sacredness of life are validated ... and it seems that here and now, for probably the first time in recorded history ... all of us can know ... all of us can become totally free of the fear of death ... all of us can become totally free of the negativities that entertain our mistaken identification with the mortal ego ... all of us can liberate the consciousness of our true identity ... that part of us who belongs totally to and lives totally in the timeless ... and, from time to time, manifests a life story for our learning and loving ... I recommend this book highly to anyone like me who has had difficulty in understanding the true meaning of liberation or enlightenment ... or who, like me, has had a battle royal between the ego needs and the soul's wisdom ... What Chopra has done could be called Enlightenment for Dummies but he has done this instead with patience, with love, and with gentle method. Good reading and practice for the paradigms now becoming universal to all peoples. 5 stars (One of the Best Books Ever Written) - The author of more than 41 books, 100 tapes, CDs and videos, Dr. Chopra is one of the world's greatest leaders in the field of mind body medicine. Through his latest book, Dr. Chopra continues to challenge the perception of the meaning of the mindbody health in our society by offering new and more empowering tools to access our innate healing powers in all areas of life including the physical, emotional and spiritual. In the words of Ken Wilber, one of the endorsers of this book (back cover), "The Book of Secrets is the finest and most profound of Deepak Chopra's books to date.

4 stars (Excellent!) - Although I have not tried the CD version, I have the downloaded version. You just download it and you can work it without using any cd roms or anything. Its such a GREAT program. You get to pick and create your ringtones from any song and at ANYPOINT! Instead of paying $2 for every ringtone and they dont even start it at the point you like it. (IE Cingular and T-Mobile) I found this item the best ringtone maker Ive ever used. But one thing that would make this product better is if we could use a USB cable to import the songs instead of thru text messages and then you wouldnt be using up those. But others wise get this product if you want to customize your own ringtones. UNLIMITED RINGTONES FOR ONLY A ONE TIME PAYMENT OF $20! 1 stars (No support, doesn't work) - The software will load on your PC, however does not connect to their network. No phone or online support. Sent e-mail with no response. SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!! 1 stars (Program cannot be OPENED!!!) - This software sucks. After I installed it, and I tried to open it a thousand times... Nothing happened. Then I uninstalled and re-installed this thing, nothing changed. I still cannot open the program. Don't even know how this program looks like. Slow down my computer. This is a must return software.

5 stars (Great bunch of apps at the right price) - I was pretty excited as soon as I heard about this product and got it right away. Audio Hijack - works perfectly as advertised. I've been using this to record music from VH1.com to fill my library and I figured out also how to use it to record the soundtrack from music DVDs and from iTunes. It's brain dead easy to use and the quality is good. MusicMixer - after a pretty lengthy amount of time it had scanned my library. I have about 5000 songs and it took over 4 days. But it was worth the wait - it definitely makes some smart choices and groups songs that sound good together. Spin Doctor - I haven't tried this one yet - but my father has a bunch of stuff he's hounding me to try it out with. Seems like a good addition. iPodder - I like this one. Fits really well with iTunes and there's a ton of interesting stuff to fill my commute time now. Speech software - I don't really have a need for this one and the voices are a bit corny - although there's a coupon on the disc for better voices from another company. All in all I'm happy with this purchase. Unlike the previous reviewer who seems to have a personal vendetta against the music industry I'll focus on this product. Roxio certainly does not hide that these are products that have been available for a while from other developers - what Roxio brings together is 5 great apps for the right price. The Mixer is $30 by itself. AudioHijack is $16. iPodder is $24. Speech is $16. None of them are free - contrary to what the previous reviewer says. If you bought them all separetly you'd spend alot more - so even if you only use a few of the apps you're coming out ahead. Ignore the crazies and focus on the software and you won't be disappointed. It really does make your iPod better. 2 stars (Software is available elsewhere for free, Music Magic Mixer is disabled.) - When I heard that Roxio was making this software suite, I was thrilled and the reviews were gr...

5 stars (Great Fun and Helpful Product) - I thought this was a really solid piece of software. It taught me alot of things that I needed to know about singing. I am not a professional and could not afford vocal lessons so this really was a HUGE help. The ability to sing a wide range of songs made it even more useful. Being able to see my pitch helped teach me what types of songs are good for me to sing. From what I have seen so far the music library is growing every week with better and better songs. If they keep adding songs like this there really is no limit what I can do with the software. 3 stars (Good for the beginner, but not much more.) - This program has quirky characters that teach you the basics of singing, such as breathing, posture and warm ups. Being able to see what pitch you are hitting helps a lot to strengthen the beginning singer. The reason I gave this only 3 stars, however, is that once you are done with the basics, the only thing that the program can give you is you pitch history while singing one of the songs. While this is a useful information, there isn't a wide enough varity in songs to make using this feature terribly fun and there aren't lessons to encourage you to work through the songs in a specific order. I was also quite disappointed with their online song library. This version comes with 4 free songs to down load from their song library, and I only found two that I was even willing to sing and have a vague liking for. None of my favorite songs were there. The lists of songs were quite small. They also, beyond the 4 free songs, want to charge what I think is an outragous charge per song. Get this if you are a rank beginner or need help with your pitch and are happy practicing on public domain folk songs. It's a fine piece of software if that's what you are looking for. 4 stars (Great Product) - bought this program for my daughter who loves watching American Idol and now all she wants to do is sing. We bought her this ...
