I feel like I'm holding the secret to life.

The reason I'm so in love with this book is that Spike doesn't hide ANY of his tricks. If you want to make his food at home, he's fine with that! But, seeing all the tricks makes you much more inclined to just go over to Good Stuff rather than put in the work.

Plus, I've needed the recipe for Good Stuff Sauce since the first bite of my first farmhouse burger. It's addictive, I tell you.

I feel a sense of warmth with these, like they're alive and waiting to tell me something! I was drawn to the mystical pictures and beautiful colors of this card deck with guide book by Colette Baron-Reid, Alberto Villoldo, and Marcela Lobos with the artwork by Jena DellaGrottaglia. Colette's suggestion of picking a card or more and letting the energies sink in for a few days before picking again when I have a new thought that needs clarifying, is a good one. The four card lay-out was accurate as to what I had been experiencing, and helped to see things in a better perspective than I, at first, thought it was telling me. It helps to write everything down, then ponder it for awhile!

My coworker just let me borrow this book and in one day i have read it all. I am a recent college graduate who has held a job with that has a pretty high income for a 22 year old with law school right around the corner. I have amazing parents that helped raise me into a successful young man and I have no student loans, yet i have been feeling empty due to my life feeling like it lacks a true purpose outside of being successful and having fun. This book made me feel full on the inside again, and helped me decide what my next step is. I am sure it will reach everyone in different ways, but please give this book a read.

There is a fantastic feeling that you only get when a power greater than yourself, the universe, God, gives you a gift.  A life affirming gift.  One that ignites every essence of your being and has your blood pumping and heart throbbing.  You find yourself saying, Oh I didn't know it could be this intense, amazing, or I could never have imagined something of this magnitude yet with such detail! The timing is beyond human construction.  I am here on this planet at this time, lucky enough to experience this....  Then true humility in all it's beauty shrinks you to a speck in the DNA chain of this  Divine Nature. The enormous, loving, gift giving, universe,  made up of all that is... and there you are, feeling your own presence as a special  part of it.....  That is the present moment swallowing you whole!  That is the enormous enveloping love that you experience when the moment puts you in it's center.  I asked for this feeling and got it from using Vision Boards.  Images and expression are the language of the universe and that is the language you will learn from reading The Vision Board; The Secret to An Extraordinary Life by Joyce Schwarz.  You put your dreams up for the universe to see and then laugh and celebrate  as those dreams are far exceeded.  Have fun and a Vision Board  is  the best way to have a Happy New Year!

This book got me to reflect on my life as a father, son, husband, brother, friend, and most of all a scared human being who wonders every day "am I actually making it or faking it."

Brene,  if you read these reviews, you need to know that you have helped me in so many ways. I know that lots of what I do is already great, and I also know that when I make mistakes, or those times I look back on that I am not so happy about, I can feel guilt not shame.  That is the freedom I now have to show up and dare greatly for the rest of my life.

Thank you.

Monday I received my book, today is Satuday and my life is already changing. The power of our thoughts is AMAZING. I was at what I felt like was such a low point when I purchased this book, glad to just a few days later and between the book and MM community I feel better, and so much more confident than I have ever. Buying this book gives you abundantly more than just a paperback. It gives you the tools you need to be who you've always wanted to be. It's only been a few days like I said, but if things are turning around after just a few days of reading and working on myself, I can't even imagine what one year will bring. Me for president! Just kidding. :D Hal for president!

I absolutely LOVE The Secret! ...and I love Jesus too -- and he loves me!  And I know it to be true!

If the Secret can liven my spirits when I'm feeling low and ineffectual then why not love the Secret.  It has done that more than just a few times since I've known about the book, video, and gratitude book.  One of my friends (and basically most people from my church) is wary of the fascination over The Secret and the law of attraction because of its overemphasis on the self for pursuing self-interests and not so much concern for outward compassion and humanity.  I find this to be extremely interesting -- meanwhile still doing volunteer work and donating to the needy with genuine grace and a loving heart.

It's when I need to put "feet to my prayers" that the principles of the Secret can kick in!!

...

<whew, insert quiet time here...takin' a breather....reeeelaxin'........settling with a loving smile.......perhaps a prayer of peace.....>

Thank-you...

This book is for anyone who has reached contentment and happiness but hasn't yet connected with their true spirit.
I found helpful solutions to my mid life problems in reading many books. After reaching a new normal I was surprised to find there was further awakening ahead in, "Owning Ourselves." I now understand our thoughts are not reality. I'm now aware my viewpoint is shaped by outside influences and I know why my thoughts are not my true self. My memories and much of what I know has been skewed by spin happening in that moment. Charlie's book taught me I can reframe a past or present situation until it feels right for who I've become today. I can't know what is real for another person, but I can modify my own thoughts to support my present happiness. I've experienced a rush of positivity since reading the book and it feels really good.

A feel for real life.  I'm almost jealous.

I feel like I know these people, like I've been in this city, like I'm climbed that stairwell. Hell, I even feel like I could have said some of these things.

I am not one to write comments often, but here goes...
I was afraid to do this, to feel the sensations of my body because that is what has been causing me so much mental turmoil, grief, and worry.  Accepting the feelings as they come and go. Visualizing my thoughts outside of themselves was very effective for me. It is like watching leaves fall on a stream, then seeing them gently float away downstream, letting them go.  I have not felt this encouraged in a long time, knowing that I am more than my thoughts. I think I have been damming up a river of life that is supposed to flow freely. This was wonderful experience.  I feel better. Thank you.'

I feel so energized when I eat hemp hearts.  And it just makes me feel like I'm making great choices for fueling my body.

I love how Dr. Ali advises us to stop overthinking, have fun and enjoy the experience of being alive. I feel like he's the big brother I never had. This book has been invaluable in helping me be a more confident person.  I exude more love now and feel as if I'm actually attracting more love in my life as well.

This wonderful book has helped to bring a state of being that I never thought I'd experience so much closer.
