A life and spirtiual awakening book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I read this book some 20 years ago and I still go back and reread it once in a while. It is an excellent book that has made my life more enjoyable and less stressful. I recommended it to my daughter and soon to my son. John Powell writes with such spiritual conviction that one can't help but to focus on the path of a new begining; the path of enjoyment of life as it was meant to be enjoyed. I also read two other books by John Powell, both were as spiritually dynamic and enlightening.
Life Saver!

This book is a life saver for me. Powell's style is scholarly, inspirational and readable - all at the same time! I've been reading and re-reading this book for a year. It woke me up to the subtle baggage I've been carrying around forever and has helped me start to unload it. I do indeed feel that I am becoming more "Alive".
Good Reading; Good Advice!

I read this book some years ago. I have loaned it to friends who enjoyed it almost as much as I did. I say "almost" because I made sure it was returned to me. It is like an old friend you like to visit with often!
