Awakened something in Me

I have never taken the time to write a review about anything, but I felt compelled to write a review regarding this book. I have literally not been able to put this book down. I have highlighted so many different passages and refer back to them daily. I have read the book many times, yet something new jumps out at me each time. I LOVE how this book focuses on the spiritual side of weight loss. I think that this is what has been missing for me. I lost almost 100 pounds only to gain almost half of it back. I believe that I can successfully lose the weight again and maintain it after reading this book. I have never turned to the Lord regarding my problems with food. Now I talk to him daily. THANK YOU Lysa for writing such a fabulous book!

I loved it. Almost everything rang true. I did pray while reading it. Maybe the parts that seemed foreign were only because I have yet to learn for myself. Either way, I feel more ready and eager to move forward in my own journey to Zion. Now I have visual aids. My faith has been strengthened. Thank you, "Spencer"

Awake in the middle of the night. Searching for direction and came across this book. Divine intervention perhaps? I think it was.

My last relationship was the most beautiful gift I have ever received.  It scared me to death and turned me into a little child.  I got dumped, and started reading.

I just finished this book, and I must say that I have identified so much about myself that contributed to the demise of this relationship.  I am taking steps to heal my cracked identities and reconnect with my essential self.

I am even starting to detach from the outcome of my relationship status.  I was dumped with the possibility of reconnecting at a later time.  This possibility was the initial spark to my journey inward, but it is that journey that is becoming it's own reward.

Read it and internalize it!  I also recommend anything by Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks (authors of the foreword).  I did a training with Katie, and she is amazing!

I am writing you this review to thank you for all the work
that you are doing to help me awaken to who I am.

The process that I am going through PMWIAW has awakened me
to admit who I am and come to the another doorway of expanding awareness.

PMWIAW  is an essential part of my growing and expanding process .

The process helped me get in touch with many different facets of myself.

I am less stressed , I am happier  I am more creative, I am more in touch with who I am. I have more balance in my life.

 In this process I have gained  tools and insight's to grow and expand my perspectives in life. Which in turn is creating a more fulfilling life for me and my family.

Their are no words that can express my gratitude for what you do.

Thank you
Dr. Rik Rodriguez

Sometimes you just don't realize how lonely and hurt you have been for way too long. I'm shocking myself by posting this review. I'm one that reads reviews and keeps mine to myself. This book moved me in a way that requires me to share. Thanks to the author for writing this. It's scary and exciting to consider new beginnings. I was brave and strong and hopeful before hurt piled up. I realize that this is fiction. The beautiful story forced me to consider my life with love and happiness again. Who knows how things can change? I'm deciding to start allowing new possibilities to enter my life again. As long as I am breathing, I have a chance to be happy again. Maybe this is over the top to post about a book. If you could see inside my past and present then you could understand what a blessing it is to even ponder a happily ever after. I believe this book can reach hurting people who need it most because it certainly did me. Read it and maybe you will get some magic back in your life. That's my new hope and for now that's more than enough.

I liked this book because it allowed me to see the fallacy of our beliefs and the struggles that many of us go through looking for fulfillment believing that  sexual ecstasy is the answer. Reading this book I had many awakening thoughts and surprised that I was tearful as I read the last paragraph of the Afterwards section. Two years ago I lost my husband in a fatal accident and have not been able to paint or work on a book that I started writing in the late 80s about a love affair but now I feel the desire to do both again .

My mind was really opened up to a new way of thinking about money.

There was an immediate shift in my way of thinking when I learned about the physical aspects of the body! That was just the beginning! I

The Lovely Knowing was an emotional awakening for me. Once I picked it up I couldn't lay it down. While reading Mishi's story it actually brought to light many of my own feelings I had avoided dealing with. The relationships she had, and her ability to share with the world of her experiences was very brave. Mishi McCoy caught me by surprise, and I can't wait for her next book.

After a recommendation from a friend, I recently read Soul Sessions.  I truly enjoyed it, and found myself very wrapped up in Nick's journey and awakening.  By half way through, I couldn't wait to see what he learned about his past lives, as well as his challenges in his current life.  I viscerally felt some of his awakenings/lessons as I was reading them, and I found myself quickly trying to carve out a few more moments to see what would happen next.

To say this was a quick and easy read seems to not give it the appropriate weight it deserves... I read it quickly, and it isn't a "dense" read, but it was because I couldn't put it down.  But the insights and the introspection lingered.  I found myself thinking about the content and the message quite a bit.  It brought me peace and a sense of... hope.  Hope around what my purpose is; as well as those around me and those I've lost.

Some of the lessons and insights in this book reminded me a lot of Celestine Prophecy and Illusions.  I suspect I will read this book again in my lifetime, when I need those messages, as I have the other two.

Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down.  Reading it is an awakening in to another realm of existence.  Cheryl's questions became mine and the book pulled me in and about a quarter of the way into it, I felt like I was there asking my own questions.  The thrill of how the answers came with clarity and depth beyond my experience was astonishing.  This book is a must read, it will awaken and intrigue you in so many ways that you will want to know more.

This book made me think. I realized and had an awakening. I use it all the time. I keep notes.  I journal.  I love it!  it inspires me.

This book opened my eyes in ways that are inexplainable.  I was finally able to let go of a man that I once thought was the best thing that ever happened to me only to find out that he obviously was the main character in this book.  I only wish I had read it two years ago; perhaps I could have recognized the signs and saved myself the absolute worse hurt I have ever experienced.  The book went beyond my expectations and hopefully will help me to recognize these behaviors in the future.

This book opened my eyes to the ego.  I never knew the power it could have over our actions.  Now I realize that complaining, anger, frustration stem from the ego.  A New Earth has changed the way I look at how I see things and how I interpret life circumstances.  I am a better person for reading this.

My being felt rocked Gary! I was even caught off guard a little, as my being started to shake when reading, especially parts 3, 4 and 5; shaking in the sense of existence racing through and spontaneous thawing. There was an immediate resonance. Acosmic synchronicity as your pages mirror my situation here, allowing the absolute to dissolve any unconscious darkness had at grabbing at life and weaving stories about death and dying. A beautiful gift Gary Tzu. I am deeply touched by your mirroring in these pages; your effortless mirroring of eternalness here and now.

As I read your book, I had spontaneous tears in my eyes; tears of opening to the truth of the moment, here and now... something personally impersonal happening here, there is a direct felt sense of writing as a total cosmic hollow bamboo, as if the book was already written in eternity and you were the conduit that downloaded it. Something is dramatically different about your writing compared to first book! The arrow hit its mark! The mystery and beauty of paradox is weaved throughout the pages, warmly inviting transformation now.

You started from total Freedom in your book and ended with total Freedom. Everything in-between was a total invitation. One thing that really stood out was the way you communicated from the Heart of darkness without the desire that "anyone" should "get it" or take up the invitation; paradoxically, that allowed for the arrow to hit its mark - the writing tone, style seemed to disarm/dissolve the mind before and after an insight has been made... i found this quite amazing! There is the black-blue Love of existence carried throughout, beyond that loving kindness crap that dilutes hellish experiences.

The intensity was laced throughout the book, as I was reading it there was a sense of spontaneous melting and relaxation - it even felt strange as reading the intense case examples as I felt like i was in each case study - as if though through the i melting there was an interconnectedness of consciousness through case studies that it felt like I was experiencing the traumas. I hope this makes sense. This was very real and carried through when sharing the case of Myrna and total madness of people running for their lives from Nazi camps and past life experiences. Part 3, 4 and 5 exploded for me! Waking up in the dark gutters of existence. You have provided such detail into these experiences, captured the nuances and subtleties in how the mind will attempt to escape from nothingness or manipulate the darker realms; there is so much detail here that it speaks directly to how you have travelled these realms and uncovered the keys of resolution through complete surrender and choicelssness and the non-interferring mind. There is so much here that I continue to process but I wanted to share my initial thoughts and experiences.

I feel blown away by your book Gary! It is such a huge gift to life, to existence and to all the apparent beings running around trying to avoid the cosmic gelatine. Such a beautiful, transformational book!
