The Art of Letting Go: The Journey from Separation in Love to Fulfillment in Life

This book is fantastic! I bought the book when i was still in shock from my break-up and i used it after i had gone through the hardcore mourning period. I was confused for days, forgetting things, crying all the time, and then i just decided to try out the book. I quickly gained clarity and although i'm still sad, i've moved to a new place where i'm walking MY path, and feel lie i've got some control back on my "new" life without my ex. "The Art of Letting Go" is set up like a workbook, but it is divided into Chapters, such as "feelings", "Acceptance", "Forgiveness" and has an introduction to each set of questions. I suggest you write your answers in a seperate book, because your answers can get quite long. Honesty with yourself is the key, and when you go through the questions and really try your best to answer them, you will get the most out of this book. I worked through the chapters, a few questions at a time. At the end of each 'chapter' there is a meditation on the subject just covered. I found doing the meditation in the morning would let me feel through all my emotions during the day and then doing the workbook again at night would allow me to focus on the process of letting go. I think this book would suit anyone who's just lost their love - i don't think you'd need to have been married, but if you felt true and deep love for your partner, and now they've gone... then this is the book for you... to help you find yourself and get your life back.

Comforting, December 22, 2005 Reviewer: Tina Avon - See all my reviews I am in the process of having to "let go" of something and it is difficult. I found this book and thought it would help. While it is a small book, the sections are separated such as Freedom, Strength, etc. There was alot of wisdom in this tiny book. Each section looks at how you can let go of a situation or person. The insights are not new, but they are written in such a way that it makes you think... and it also is written in a way that makes you think of the other person involved in the relationship. This was very helpful to me - as I tended to make my situation all about me and forget that there were two people involved. This book gently encourages you to let go of resentment and to consider the other person's feelings as well as your own. While there are no ground breaking revelations here, this book somehow felt.....comforting.
