A Guide to Loving Yourself and Living Your Dreams

Review:This book is neither radical nor especially original. It is divided into three sections: Loving Yourself, Loving Others (friends, romance and sex) and Daily Magic (manifesting, style and manners for the "modern minx".

Lessons Learned about Self-Healing from a Surgeon's Experience with Exceptional Patients

Review:This book got me through a total hysterectomy and years later bought it for my friend's cancer. I am not religious and this book does not profess to be as such.
