This book changed the way I think in profound life altering ways.  I have read a ton of self help, spiritual, and other types of books. I am constantly reading.
But here's the thing about The Four Agreements (at least from my perspective):  It was sort of a bore to read. I recognized the truth in the book at the time I first read it (over 10 years ago) but I didn't love the writing style, and felt like some of the information was obvious and became repetitive the further in I got.
However, all those years ago I wrote the four agreements on a nice piece of stationary in calligraphy. and put the paper on my fridge door.  Every day, for 10 years I saw those agreements, either consciously noticing them, or subconsciously being aware of them while I fixed my coffee.
I truly believe that the combo of reading the four agreements, and then seeing the abbreviated form of the book's messages on my fridge every morning worked on my subconscious in truly amazing ways.  As the years went by, the note written in calligraphy on my fridge held deeper and more profound meaning.
I now understand that The Four Agreements was written PERFECTLY. To get its message across, it needed to be no frills, to the point, matter-of-fact, and repetitive. This book is designed to create a fissure crack in old calcified belief systems.  With time, the message seeps into the mind, shifts your thought patterns, and sheds its old skin.

Later on in life (a couple years ago) a friend had my iPod and put a bunch of their own stuff on it.  One of the things they put on my iPod was The Four Agreements in audio.  Revisting the Four Agreements on audio was sort of an awesome experience for me, and that was when I realized how deeply they had already changed me And here they were again, validating my many years journey since I first encountered the book, and still teaching me new things as well, at an even deeper level. I highly recommend the audio OVER the physical book, actually.  That way you can play it while you are doing dishes, cleaning house, etc, and you can play it over and over, whenever you feel like it.  I put it on once while my ex-boyfriend (who is NOT into this kind of thing AT ALL) and I were separating our stuff during our break-up as he was moving out.  After it had been playing for about 20 minutes he said "this is AMAZING".  It eased our break-up and sort of helped wrap us up as friends. It helped us say goodbye in a clean,complete, and beautiful way.

Last thing I'd like to add is that I recently discovered that Don Miguel Ruiz had a classic near death experience when he was a young man.  The near death experience revealed most of this wisdom to him and inspired his life path from there on. Many old traditions, religions, and cultures have stories that match up with the wisdom gained from near death experiences. For Don Miguel, this was Toltec.  For others it will remind them of what is called the Maya (illusion) of the Hindu beliefs.  I found this information  particularly fascinating because I study NDE's extensively, and have had one myself.  I really admire Don Miguel Ruiz for not attributing this knowledge to his NDE, because I think it was a very intelligent move on his part.  NDE's are widely ridiculed, and often not believed.  This book was the perfect way of getting the message that he carries out to the widest possible audience.  If you'd like to see the interview of Don Miguel Ruiz speaking about his NDE you can google: "Bob Olsen" with "Don Miguel Ruiz" AFTERLIFETV.COM
A friend recently asked me for a book recommendation that would help her with understanding, and recognizing her EGO .  I honestly could think of no better book for this than The Four Agreements.

From the Back of the Book:

Refresh Your Soul Today
You can experience the incredible joy of hearing Gods voice and experiencing His love in a personal life-transforming wayeveryday.  These inspiring thoughts and corresponding Scriptures, accompanied by the authors spectacular photography, take only moments to read, but they will renew your mind, refocus your heart and usher you into the presence of the Almighty.

This small beautifully bound book comes jam-packed with words of peace, wisdom and Gods unconditional love.  Many times our lives cause us to not have the time we need to devote to our daily devotions.  This book will inspire you to take the few minutes you need to read the scripture provided and the accompanying thoughts that go along with it.  Before you know it, if you are like me you will be reading more than page.  You may find it addicting and even spending time just talking to God before you start your day.  The pictures MS Varela has provided are so serene and calming, it seems to project the very essence of Heaven on earth.

Caution:  Reading this book may cause a great restoring of your faith and a closer walk with the Almighty!

I can definitely see this high on my list this year as a Christmas gift for my friends.  This is a book you will read over and over again and it will have a special place on your Library shelf.

Disclosure: I was given a copy of this Book by the publisher Chosen, a Division of Baker Publishing, through Bethany House blogger program for review. I was not required to write a favorable review nor was I compensated for my review. The opinions in this review are my own.

Irene Lucas has absolutely nailed it with her inspired book and practices that will change you and the world around you forever.  This is a brilliant book filled with higher wisdom that is easy to understand, simple to use and magnificent to experience.

I have just completed my first thirty days and can attest to the fact that miracles do happen.  I'm starting back at the beginning again because the results have been so dramatic and profound.  LIfting us up to a higher state of consciousness and awareness, connecting us with the Universal guides that surround us and support us, allowing us to be more in tune with our divine nature, each chapter has an extraordinary experience to share.  On every level of my being I have felt a shift, a new resonance and a blessing that has been given.

The CD that comes with the book is transformational.  I've been listening to it every day and every evening and the peace, the confidence, the strength, the self worth, the new realities expressed are a pure joy and delight.

Thank you, Irene, for sharing this remarkable set of tools with the world.  You have made a difference in my life and I am truly grateful.

How do you review a book that is so extremely useful and enjoyable? This is an extraordinary contribution to us, and we are the lucky ones who just happen to be around to benefit from it. This book is deeply transformative; wish I would have read it years ago.

I backed this on Kickstarter and I own the paperback version. I truly love it. Each essay moved me and made me feel more and more empowered. I found rituals and beauty in so much, especially within our communities. This is an amazing book and I totally suggest it.

Dr. Wayne Dyer's I Am meditation CD is amazing. I enjoy meditation CD's so I expected that I would enjoy it, but I wasn't fully prepared for the experience that I had when I listened the first time. I felt my heart swell and vibrate... and I immediately relaxed. And I just felt so good... words can't really do the experience justice but I am trying:) I didn't have to focus at all, I felt like I was just carried along and at the end I felt deeply relaxed, connected, yet refreshed at the same time- I felt like I could handle anything. I am looking forward to making it a regular part of my evening ritual.<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Be-the-Inspiration-7-Ways-to-Inspire-Your-World/dp/1469998963/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Be the Inspiration: 7 Ways to Inspire Your World</a>

The fact that you have looked up this book and are reading the reviews is an excellent sign that you are ready for this book. My challenge is to share my feeling that this is a "wonderful" and "you must read this" book without sounding like another boring cliche. So how can I say this without saying it?
  For me, this book came into my life at just the right time and the right place. It is not a book that just tells you what you already know i.e. that kindness is a good thing and can be fun. However it does remind you of what you already know, but it is written in a way that you feel you are with the author in person and engaged in a deeply meaningful and heart-warming  conversation. The feeling is one of peace  and a sense of naturalness that "of course this way is so obvious" - no effort, no pushing anything, but just allowing what is within us all to gently emerge from under the layers of life that strangle us all.
  If I am not explaining  myself well, ignore the above and just go and buy the book - it's wonderful and a "must read."

This incredible book by Nathan Townley is not just a break-through in the comprehension of where we are right now, it is a love letter from the Universe to let us know what and why we are experiencing what we are.

It is said that we can handle any "what" that is happening in our lives, when we know the "how" that is available to us to enable us to move forward.  The fear, craziness, and dark-energy that seems to surround us, is in its own way  providing the energy to step out and offer up more of ourselves from the place of Light. It offers us the opportunity to Be the change we want to see in the world.

This is the time of the Great Awakening, with all of its insanity, thrills, expansion, confusion and inner sense of chaos and excitement at the same time.  Learning to allow yourself to calm the inner waters and allow life to surround you with the knowledge of who you truly are, is what this beautiful book is all about.

Thank you Nathan for a loving journey through our new life.

This book is transformational! I sat down and read it all at one time, because I couldn't get enough. I could feel Father's heart, and the authors, the whole time I read this book. The author has helped me understand God as a father, and unlocked a part of my heart through her teachings. Even if you think you know God as a Father, you can get something out of this book! There is so much substance on Father God, spiritual mothers and fathers, and healing from past hurts and abuse. The examples in the book do a good job of giving everyone something to learn. I feel I have received more healing in my own life from this book and I can't wait to read more of Leanne Goff's writings!

I just aired a beautiful interview with Paul Selig that was quite humbling and profound. His words, or the words of his guides, if they're embodied are truly transformative.

This book has an incredibly special energy to it. I read nearly a book a day for this show and haven't found any other book that feels quite the same. Our home is filled with books, and yet, I have two copies of this, one for me, AND a second for my wife. I want to refer to it over and over again, or to just read even a page a day over and over again to remind me of its teachings and who we truly are.

This is such a special book...carry it with you, keep it by your bed, give a copy to all you love, who may be ready for something profound, and work to grasp these words. I know I am.

I am here. I am here. I am here.

Thank you Paul, and thank you to your guides!!!

The perspective and guidance that this book offers is unlike any food and eating approach that I have encountered before, and unlike any food and eating method I have tried, this actually works, so I welcome the new perspectives!  It really goes deep and is quite transformative if you can be open enough to hear it.  I spent an entire month eating by the principles in this book and i felt absolutely incredible.  So peaceful and grounded and purely happy.  I steadily dropped weight and felt confident and energized.  The next month I decided I felt so good that I didn't need to follow Myra's principles.  The result was that I felt bloated, ugly, sad, anxious, I had increased joint pain (especially in my knees) and ended up needing to stay home from work for 2 days because of illness.  Needless to say, I am a true believer!!  I'm learning that freedom isn't eating whatever you want, but feeling worthy of having the health and body that I deserve and making the right choices to get me there.

Speaking as one who was physically present for these sessions, I can truthfully say that reading them is a revelation.  The printed word penetrates my consciousness in ways that the audible experience did not, reinforcing and refining Eloheim and the Council's teachings.  These texts create an opportunity to study the teachings in depth and at one's own pace.  This is a pleasurable and deeply transformative experience.  The amount of information imparted by the Council  during each meeting is truly amazing.  These sessions are a rich treasury and a tribute to the amazing and tireless gifts Eloheim and the Council give us each week.

Every morning I randomly open up to a page of Embracing Your Life to be uplifted by its synergistic blend of wise spiritual musings and evocative heart opening illustrations. It has become my daily boost and the best way to start my day. Everyone should have a copy--it would make for a much calmer, kinder, and heart-centered existence. Kudos to Ms. Vainisi for successfully blending art with words in a seamless and timeless creation.
