Rating:  Summary: Are you willing to change the rules? Review: "You change the rules or you are going under." ~Caroline MyssImagine a life where no one can intimidate you, where you have an invisible sense of knowing who you are, a life where you are no longer fighting for the right to be alive. Are you willing to change the rules? Are you playing games with people in your life who do not have your best interests at heart? Are you afraid of what you want most? Do you want to know who you really are? Do you want to feel empowered and healed spiritually? Do relationships make you feel needy? One of the most beautiful spiritual gifts anyone has given me was introducing me to the Caroline Myss Self-Esteem CDs. You will learn the details of why: 1. People with healthy self-esteem heal faster. 2. The old view of self-esteem differs from the new view. 3. Wars are started due to lack of self-esteem. 4. Meditation is not the only answer. 5. People around you won't celebrate your empowerment. 6. Knowledge is not a spiritual practice. 7. Standing up for yourself can change your entire life. 8. We destroy others to compensate for our own fears. 9. Our greatest fears are being alone and abandoned and how we smother people. Caroline's teachings are healing, beautiful gifts for your soul. Heal your life, heal your friendships, start giving love instead of always asking for love. An Empowering, healing, spiritually electrifying journey. If you want to be primarily responsible for your spiritual growth and understand how to create the empowered self, these CDs will help you in your search for understanding self-esteem on the spiritual level. ~TheRebeccaReview.com Other Gifts to Give for Healing: Yoga Zone Flexibility and Stress Release: A yoga workout which includes an interesting and healing "chakra" moment. Giving Love Away by Robert Shahidi: A healing CD to calm your mind and heal your heart. One of the most beautiful "spoken word" CDs I have ever listened to.
Rating:  Summary: New Ideas Review: Great for those who like fresh, in-depth thoughts on a topic that is infamous for being covered in a superficial way. Liked the part where she brings in the subject of men and making a living in her field. She is a ground breaker there in my opinion. Mentions that healthy self esteem is not inborn and has to be learned in her Advanced Energy Medicine tapes(wholeheartedly recommend) but inexplicably, this is not mentioned in these tapes on self esteem. Made me wonder if she is still formulating her ideas on the material... Excellent conversations about self respect, assertiveness, and self care in front of a live audience. Not the definitive work on the subject(I believe that it is still evolving and lies with the next generation of writers/teachers)but she enlightens with her unique outlook that fans are sure to love.
Rating:  Summary: This CD will have you in ACTION! Review: I have been in the practice of personal development for 20 years and this CD is one of the most powerful contributions on the nature of "self", conscious, and fulfilling ones destiny and place in the world, that I have encountered in a long time. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE LIKE THIS THAT I'VE READ OR HEARD. Buy it!

Rating:  Summary: Funny, enlightening, educational and enjoyable Myss Review: I have listened to my 4 CD set about 5 times since I bought it. It is terrific. Any fans of the Advanced Energetic Anatomy CD's, Anatomy of the Spirit CD's, Spiritual Power - Spiritual Practice CD's will love this - they will not be disappointed. Caroline is always educational, and is a brilliant teacher. We are so lucky to be alive in this era; and to be able to listen to and act upon her teachings. Even now when I listen to it I laugh out loud at the humorous anecdotes she shares with us. It has a warm and genuine dialogue and I think this will become one of the most easily listened to and cherished Caroline Myss CD sets around.
Rating:  Summary: Changed my life.. Review: I'm just on the 2nd CD in this series and already a 5 year block on a creative project has just left. Her challenge to confront the sabateour is powerful. I'm so glad I bought this CD. I learn more from Caroline when I listen to a CD several times because there is so much wisdom.
Rating:  Summary: Empowering Review: If you are familiar with Caroline's work and have enjoyed it then I can say you will enjoy Self Esteem and find this well grounded, well rounded, sensible and wholistic approach to Self Esteem to be of real value. There are so many of us (including those actively on their spiritual path) who suffer from the effects of poor self-esteem. Much of information we come across on the spiritual path (the path to wholeness) evens sets people up to have or maintain a low self-esteem. Our self-esteem equates to our willingness to BE HERE and to participate in life fully, lovingly, with power and presence, and in service to the Big Picture. With poor self esteem this is a formidable task that we are bound to sabotage time and time again. For those that are not familiar with Caroline's work... well, this is as good a place to start as any. I know you will find many treasures in this work of hers that you will treasure for years to come. You might also like to explore "Advanced Energy Anatomy", "Sacred Contracts", "Why people don't heal", "Spiritual Madness". If you are seeking wholeness and a balance understand of yourself and the ways you relate to self, the world, and life, that perhaps leave you feeling unsatisfied then please explore this audio book and enjoy the ride.
Rating:  Summary: RICH + FAMOUS + NEVER-BEEN-MARRIED = DAZZLING ENLIGHTENMENT Review: SAVE YOUR MONEY AND BUY EXERCISE TAPES...THAT WILL IMPROVE YOUR SELF ESTEEM. Eh...a load of New Age Chakra twaddle mixed with lots of spiritual threats and ultimatums. Her "process" is far too long and rambling for my taste. Boil it down to a principle...I don't have time to go to my "crystal space" when I'm talking to my boss. Although I appreciate her down-to-earth tone most of the time, I had the sense of some hidden agenda. Maybe Miss Myss has something to prove that she's not telling us. I walked away feeling like I had NO TOOLS and not much insight. I could have said many of the same things she did without spending the money AND SO COULD MOST OF YOU. It's all been said before. Most of all, Miss Myss admits to never having been married. Okay, right off I find that strange for a woman of her advanced years. But she really has no place talking about self esteem and marriage unless she's been there, anymore than the Pope should be giving marital advice. LET'S FACE IT, it's easy to be enlightened when you are single and have lots of money and fame. That's not exactly a spiritual road test. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND BUY EXERCISE TAPES...THAT WILL IMPROVE YOUR SELF ESTEEM.
Rating:  Summary: Great primer on self-esteem in a new light Review: She brings her unique insights and refreshing no-bull approach to the topic of self-esteem. Very useful stuff, especially when she turns the tables on the listener (i.e. examine your motivation). If you like her work (as I do) you may find this an interesting and helpful application of her principles.
Rating:  Summary: Classic Caroline Review: Wow, Having read the review by Clark I feel compelled to offer a somewhat more temperate opinion on this audio series by Caroline Myss. First, I must confess, I am an avid fan of Caroline's work and have read and/or listened to most of her books and audio recordings. This particular series starts with the somewhat surprising revelation that self-esteem, contrary to the average book in the self-help section, is a spiritual concept. Therefore the lack of self-esteem is not just a psychological problem but a spiritual crisis. The rest of the series goes on in some depth developing a working definition of self-esteem, discussing how to develop self esteem, and interspered through out, giving examples of how the lack of self-esteem is at the root of many of life's problems. Couple of things I found particularly interesting. - Her recommendation that you should start with something physical (losing weight, new hairstyle, clothes, etc) to build self-esteem is interesting, particularly given that many "new age" types tend to emphasize "spiritual" techniques like meditation or affirmation, and ignore the role of physical movement and change in creating spiritual health - Her argument that you build self-esteem by honoring the commitments you make to yourself really spoke to me, as I can vividly recall many failed New Year's resolutions because I did not honor my commitments to myself. However she doesn't recommend beating yourself up if this happens, but rather asks that you recognize that this is self-sabotaging behavior and explore what part of yourself fears your own empowerment and why. Great stuff here! - Finally she discusses self-esteem within the context of relationships, finances, and health. - For those who have followed Caroline's work I found this series more personal than the others, as she shares more about herself and her own struggles with self-esteem than in previous series. I also love the fact that she takes some of the more narrow notions of "new age" philosophy to task. Sure meditation, affirmation, and "oms" have their place, but as Caroline notes they're not the end all and be all of living a spiritual life. You've got to live the principles, and when you don't, you need to be conscious of that choice and take responsiblity for it. This isn't "feel good" spirituality. The path she recommends requires thoughtful, continuous self-examination, trust in a higher power, and the courage to follow through on your intution with action. Personally, I find her approach the best blending of spritual principles with common-sense living out there. - I gave this series 4 stars for two main reasons. First, even though it's 4 cassette/CD's I didn't find it as meaty as her other series. Sometimes the material seemed thin and stretched out to cover the alloted time. Second, she does use words like "always", "never", and "only" a bit much for my taste. Personally, I find absolutes like this rarely useful and they made me feel like I was being lectured at by a parent Hope this is helpful and more balanced
