First off, let me first say it's not every day that you read a self-help book that is also a fun and exciting read. And honestly, many of these kinds of books are written by professionals that bandy about all kinds of terms and psychological concepts that do more to confuse the reader than enlighten them. But not so here. For everyone that has read a psychobabble book and screamed at the pages, "For Christ's sake, get to the point!", this book is for you. Vanderzyden cuts through the confusion and gives us clear direct instructions so we may reclaim ourselves and our lives.As a licensed professional counselor and international presenter on grief and trauma, I honestly I have been around the block a few times presenting with the folks on the best-selling self-help book list for over 20 years. And yes, some of them them are the real deal, but if you were so cynical as to think that a lot of them talk a good game but having trouble practicing what they preach, you'd be right.But with Vanderzyden, it's different. She has learned these powerful techniques not in the lab, or an insense-filled room clutching crystals, but in the REAL WORLD. That is why when you read a story about her or her clients in her book, it will ring true to you. That is why when you find a magical mind game that is a particular jewel for you, you will dare to put it into practice because you know she has and has gotten those results.Get this book and read it, but most importantly try out the ideas here and you will find your life changes!
