Rating:  Summary: A daily reminder of life's most important lessons. Review: I LOVE THIS BOOK!!! I have made a commitment to myself to read each daily reading BEFORE I get out of bed in the morning. I can't tell you how much of a positive mindset this puts me in for the day ahead--an unconscious mindset, but a positive mindset still the same. Most of the underlying messages are things that I already know in my heart to be true, but to see them in black and white and be reminded of them daily is so very inspirational. I purchased this book for myself in June 1998 and have already given it as a gift to three of my closest friends--all of them have loved it. I would highly recommend this book for anyone seeking inner peace and a deeper connection within themselves. Thank you, Melody, for a wonderful start to my day.
Rating:  Summary: Take a journey with Melody Review: I really enjoyed this book. I like the idea of taking a trip alone - a "vision quest" - to mystically themed places. I also like the fact that Melody visited the area I live in and mentions it in this book, the Willamette Valley in Oregon - it makes me feel like I live in an exciting and intetersting place (yes, I find the idea of going to a forest to be exciting). Wouldn't you love to see the vortexes in Sadona, the Willamette National Forest, the Grand Canyon? I first became aware of Melody Beattie because of her book CODEPENDENT NO MORE, and I have liked her writing ever since. She is very compassionate and does not let the tragedies of her life (such as the loss of her son when he was only a teen, written about in THE LESSONS OF LOVE) get in the way of her enjoyment of life. Rather than let tragedy harden her view of life, she allows it to increase her compassion for others. I think it must've been wonderful to have traveled to these places alone, all the while recording one's thoughts and knowing that some day others would read them.
Rating:  Summary: Lovely Review: Lovely book : I read it every night before going to sleep and it takes all my cares away. It also gived me sweet dreams. Buy it. And get one for your best friend who is going through a bad time.
Rating:  Summary: Inner Peace Review: This book is a wonderful way to begin your own Journey to your Heart. It has literally changed my life. It talks of feeling all your feelings, good or bad and helped me to realize that pain as well as happiness are all part of life. I want to thank Melody Beattie for writing this book and sharing her experience of her spiritual travels and her own Journey to the Heart. Each day that I read from these pages, I am inspired. I see the world in a different light and am able to find an inner peace that is hard to find in this tough world.
Rating:  Summary: wonderful help for the journey to my heart Review: This book really has changed my life. I've read it cover-to-cover at least five times and each time I read it I am inspired. Melody's words truly are a "melody to the soul." I've shared quotes from the book with friends and family and they have all said they just had to purchase a copy for themselves. Today I'm buying one for my 19-year old niece who is just discovering "who she is" and has said she wants to grow spirituality. I'm sure this book will give her spiritual concepts to consider throughout the day and will help her to develop an open mind and a loving heart.
