The Secret

if you are ready to wake up but don't have time to sit and read then it is highly recommended to get this cd. The enthusiasm of all the participants is engaging

Eat Pray Love

This was my choice for my book group - 6 great women all in our 30's. Although I am not quite finished it yet, I am really enjoying it. I know the others are too. Great true tale by a Elizabeth Gilbert and her search for peace and happiness. Like every good book, no doubt I will miss it when I'm finished. I already have a queue of people who want to read it after me!!

Not detailed enough and better reads out there

Having also read The Definitive Book of Body Language: How to Read Others' Attitudes by Their Gestures by Allan Pease and Barbara Pease I can't help but compare. Where as The Definitive Book of Body Language (TDBOBL) was detailed, witty and had real world examples this book seemed a bit like an advertisement for a retired FBI detective. <br /><br />The examples where all real world and while they illustrated the point they didn't give you the same eureka! feeling as when reading TDBOBL. <br />Also TDBOBL stated its points with confidence and without apologies where as What Everybody is Saying was almost painfully politically correct.<br />Even those in law enforcement or roles where reading the situation quickly is important would be better served with The Definitive Book of Body Language.

The dawning of the Age of Mindfulness

Eckhart writes in a very down to earth way that has a sound philosophical base. He is presenting the essential Buddhist concepts of sunnata (space consciousness) and mindfulness (sati) as the present-centered awareness that allows us to transcend object-consciousness and become the living reality of Buddha mind (bodhicitta). But the way he presents these often dry concepts is so engaging!<br />To read more about mindfulness and mindfulness meditation, I suggest you read:<br />The Path of Mindfulness Meditation: Finding Balance in the Midst of Chaos: The Application of Mindfulness and Vipassana Meditation for Personal Transf

How to Win Friends and Influence People

If you are in business and only read one book this is the one you must read. Take the Americanism with a pinch of salt but put what it teaches you into practise. I did and it worked.<br />Warren Buffet did the same but he became the second richest man in the world quite a bit better than me.

great book

I am really enjoying this book and am learning so much and this book has helped me greatly. It is a great book and was a great price.

A 'must have' for parents

I am a mother, grandmother and retired teacher. I wish I had had this book when bringing up my children, and I cannot recommend it enough to other parents. A very easy read - can be dipped into time and again, and full of simple but great ideas on handling all sorts of situations. One would think they had watched your family through the windows! Lots of humour!

Fantastic!!!

I bought this book when my 6.5 month old son started flatly refusing any and all purees, I had read a little online and BLW seemed like something worth trying.<br />This book is a fantastic help, clearly explaining the idea behind BLW and giving helpful info on how to go about it.<br />we have not looked back and now at just 8 months my little one is happily feeding himself all sorts of food, including filet steak, all sorts of veg and fruit, chicken fajitas and very occaisionally smoked salmon (small ammounts, v high in salt).<br />I couldn't have done it without this book, it gave me the confidence to trust my little boy and let him choose what he wants when he wants it, I cannon recommend this book enough, if you want to do BLW this is definately the book for you.

Inspired

This book was recommended on a leadership training event I attended. After reading this book I have shared this with 6 of my friends all who have shared my experience of inspiration. One of my comments has been if I had taken all these simple basic things into account a few years back my relationship with people would have been different. This book brings out all the basic things we know but take for granted in our everyday relationship with people.

I'm all exercised out.

Whilst I started out enjoying this book, I eventually got bogged down down with the various exercises that followed the chapters. I ended up putting the book away for some time and then made the occasional foray, till I finished.<br /><br />To be fair, the book is filled with invaluable advice and the anecdotes are inspiring but I couldn't help feeling there were too many 'end of chapter' exercises. A few of those could have been combined into something more comprehensive so there would be a lot less. The exercises are very visual in scope with very little geared towards those who would rather work with their feelings.<br /><br />No doubt the book will work for a number of people and I will keep it as a reference for some exercises but will avoid Mr. McKenna's books with a similar format in future.<br /><br /><br /><br />

Oh yeah, flipping brilliant

I bought this book just before I went on my hols and loved it, just could not put it down. Its one of those books you can keep and dip in and out off all the time. Thinking.."oooo another snippet" superb! I loved it loads, as an NLP Practitioner there is a bit of that in the book, plus some common sense, plus some magic!<br />All in all its a great read, I cannot recommend enough - this book has the potential to change your life, its fun, easy to read, cool, and magical.<br />I LOVED IT, and because I am brilliant you will believe what I write<br />

A real eye opener

The God Delusion I would like to start off by saying that Richard Dawkins is an incredible guy! His views put down in print in this book are both rational and fair. His explanatory journey through the book is impressive and full of wonderful links to other authors and there books. By my first line you would have most probably guessed I am in full compliance with Prof Dawkins views on religion. His book covers all aspects of religion and faith, and is presented in a fine manner. If people find some of his writing offensive in any way, they must be fools. This book is, as my title suggests, an eye opener. And its literal content fantastic. Whether you are faithful to a particular religion or not, this book is well worth a read. I have read this book TWICE already and find it absorbing. If you have nothing to hide or fear try this book. 'The God Delusion' is, in my humble opinion, a great view on modern moral values compared to middle ages relgious views!!

what have you got to lose

Im 45 and have been a smoker for 30 years. I have tried just about everything from will power, patches, hypnotherapy to prescribed tablets, some of these methods have been hopeless while others have worked for a while. Allen Carrs book has given me a completely fresh take on why I smoke, what happens to my body and mind when I smoke and the cycle smoking creates. Its been 4 weeks since I finished the book and whenever I think about having a cigarette the desire to not have one is stronger. so if your serious about giving up but cant imagine a future without smoking give this book a go. what have you got to lose.

My Psychic Life

An insight into what it is like to be a Psychic but also to experience the dramas of everyday life as a ordinary human being ,very inspiring and enjoyable.

Excellent service

All his books are great. A lengthier description about the book would help but since this was a recommendation I knew to buy it.<br />Service was great.

Buy it, I read it then bought copies for the entire team it's that good

Seth in fine form; the departure being that this is more about you than about your business. There are a couple of messages early on that set off my American-self-help-guru alarm however the proposition is sound.<br /><br />For me this book is not about how to make yourself essential enough not to be fired but more about how we spend a LOT of time at work and that changing your attitude and giving time, knowledge and emotion (art) has a positive effect. For everyone. <br /><br />More great sound bites in this book that you can count; currently the one imprinted on my brain is `Doesn't matter if you're always right. It matters that you're always moving'. You will learn about `ART', the `Lizard Brain', `The powerful culture of Gifts' and much more; Seth is issuing you a wake-up call and a challenge to change. <br /><br />As with most things Seth-shaped I loved it and am thinking differently after reading it (and have now bought copies for the entire team). Recommended.

controling stress

trying to do as suggested in book.some good results from some of the things Ive tried

excellent summary on Psychology & Sociology

I really liked this book a lot and heavily recommend it to anyone that in a short read want to understand something more on human behaviour. Don't expect very deep tests and the background behind but either a summary on ways to improve your live or understand better why people behave like they do.

Great book, simple message

Such an easy book to read but the message is clear and helps it to stick. A valuable guide for anyone in business no matter what level

Perfect for Dog-lovers!

Bought this as a Christmas present for my mum and she absolutely loves it. It gives excellent practical advice for dealing with dogs and where you might be going wrong with discipline etc.He also talks of his experiences with celebrities and how he worked with them.<br />A truly great read!
