Summary: I used this book to help a friend
Review: This book delves into the conflict between the exuberance of youth and the cautiousness that comes with hard-won wisdom. Why does it happen that as one ages and learns, one becomes less enthusiastic about life? Is there a way to retain one's wisdom, but regain that youthful enthusiasm?Well, there is, and this book gives the exact processes to do just that. These processes are truly remarkable, and very simple to use. Just about anyone could be helped with these processes, but I think they are especially good for someone who has suffered some kind of trauma - the loss of a loved one, for example. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is interested in what makes us go "tick" and who wants to help others.

Summary: Are you a friend of yours?
Review: This book is really about getting to know *yourself*, which is probably the most neglected friend you have. Do you recall a time when you were younger and everything looked bright and life was cheerful? Using the techniques in this book, you can regain your positive outlook in life. Highly recommended!

Summary: Depressed? This book can help!
Review: This book was awesome. It showed me how my emotions change. And best all - it gave me an easy way to keep me happy and enthusiastic about life. The book is filled with questions that help a person recall things from their past. I don't know how just remembering the things could give me such a great outlook on life - but it certainly did. It was very easy to read, and most of the book was taken up with the memory exercises. I was actually able to recall things from my childhood that I haven't thought of since! If you want to find out what it can do for you I definitelly suggest you try it yourself. Don't just take my word for it, try it!

Summary: Worth recommending...
Review: This is one book I've recommended to many people, particularly those who are suffering from loss of some sort. These techniques can be used on oneself, and the book gives a basic, simple explanation for how and why the process works as it does. Anyone who feels a bit "run down" by life, or who has suffered losses, can be assisted by this method. I wish I had known this technique when I was a rape crisis counselor - it would have helped many women I knew enormously! The purpose of these processes are to pull a person back into the here and now. After the death of a loved one, failed relationships, serious injuries, etc., one can become "stuck in the incident" - and have a gloomy outlook thereafter. These processes gently bring a person's attention back under their own control - and out of the past incidents that have been haunting them. One can use these processes on himself, or on another. They are even good to use on children, and not necessarily just for people who have experienced trauma. They can improve a person's memory, and just brighten one's outlook in general. Even my 9 year old daughter is able to use these processes on her younger siblings and her friends. My kids consider Self Analysis to be "fun" and it is! You can just try it out and see how you like it. I think it's great!
