Summary: what planet does this woman live on?
Review: Electromagnetic attraction? Mind vibrations? This book is not worth the ink it is printed with. It is more like someone taking our intelligence for a ride. Simply put , this author is full of it . FInd yourself another book and don't waste your money on this good for nothing wad of BS.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome - Expect a Shift in Your LIfe
Review: I recently told a reader of my e-zine about this book and their comments sum up perfectly the results it has. With her permission I'll share them with you.
"Your call the other day was an answer to a prayer! I was really having a tough week emotionally, and your call was unexpected and just what I needed. I went right out and purchased "Excuse Me Your life is Waiting" and started the 30 day program at once. I am still in the early part of the book, but am faithfully doing the 30 day program in the back as you suggested, and good stuff has begun to happen. More importantly, a shift has occurred in me! " C S
And having an actual shift in your mood, your happiness, your success in all of your life is what this book is all about. The book has a down to earth quality, because it is filled with the author's anecdotes of what happened as she began to use these ideas. I later got the CD unabridged version and the author herself reads it. You feel like you are right in her kitchen with her having tea and she is telling you the secrets of her success. And those secrets are the usual "Law of Attraction"- "what you focus on is what you get" Plus her own formula which is:
1. " -identify what we DON'T want."
2. " -clarify and state what we DO want."
3. " -get into the feeling place of those Wants."
4. "Expect it, listen, and allow the universe to bring it."

Of course she embellishes this with all of the nuances of how to do it. And the magic of her last chapter "Thirty Days to Breakout" is none other than starting by finding something to appreciate about yourself each day. When I tried this it only took a fews days and I felt like all my worries had been lifted and I'd been given a magic key. A friend even asked, "You're different, calmer, more grounded, more sure of yourself. What have you been doing?" My answer was that I was following the steps in Lynn's last chapter. After a while I stopped for a couple of weeks and the stress crept back in. I found myself worrying and life just wasn't as happy. So I started again to find just one thing each morning to appreciate about myself. Again the magic quickly took hold. THIS STUFF WORKS! And so my recommendation for "Excuse Me Your Life is Waiting" is an absolutely unqualified five stars.

Summary: What the soul yearns for
Review: This book is not for everybody. But if it's for you, you will know it instantly. The information and lessons are perfectly timed, and that is simply not a coincidence. I didn't get past the 1st few chapters before I realized this was too good to keep to myself and have started a study group using the Playbook. The lifelong spiritual path I have been on never came close to revealing so much about me until Lynn's obvious explanation. Understanding I have created my own experiences has turned me into a very aware, deliberate creator. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Lynn.

Summary: A LIFE CHANGING BOOK
Review: My good friend Kathy Wilson recommended this book to me. I'm so glad that she did. This book is an excellent resource for anyone who feels like they're just not quite making their dreams come true, and they don't know why.

This book and Conversations With God are my favorite books of all time.

I have a long waiting list of friends waiting to read my copy so I've decided to buy 10 more copies for each of them.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Use Caution!
Review: I love books that have a life-changing effect and I am open to new ideas. I just don't get this book though. I bought it based on the reviews and was sorely disappointed. I would recommend purusing this book in the bookstore first before buying it and I believe you will put it back on the shelf and move on. However, if you have a lot of time on your hands, and have time to go to the max with "touchy feely" concepts you might be able to get through it. It is in my home library, on the shelf and will probably stay there until it gets crowded out by worthwhile books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excuse Me Your Life is Waiting....
Review: If I had seen this book a year earlier than I did,I would have jeered at the contents because the concepts were so far outside my frame of reference. As it was, I picked it up at a time in my life when I really wanted my life to be different and was willing to set aside what I thought I knew and listen to a different perspective.This book suggested that I focus on what I wanted instead of focusing on what I don't want. That simple shift alone was the spring board to an amazing series of changes in my life. This book is a five star book for me, yet I know that its message isn't for everyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Easy and fun reading....
Review: I loved this book. Several reviews spoke of how the information is repetitive. For me, that was not a bother at all. I laughed out loud MANY times.

I have purchased a second copy to lend to friends. If you know anyone who leans toward a 'victim mentality,' ask them to read this book! I also bought a copy for my teenage daughter.

If you're familiar with Abraham-Hicks, you know the language may be a little high level for some who are new to this type of information. Lynn simplifies it so that everyone can make easy sense of it.

Thank you Lynn!

Summary: Modern Age [poo]
Review: Although this book does give some good ideas, for the most part it is absolute [poo]. The very idea that I can control what happens to me, such as someone hitting my car, whether or not I'm approved for a loan, or getting a new car, simply by vibrating positively is ludacris. I wish I'd never have spent money on this one. It isn't worth the shipping cost, which was free in my case. I'll admit I'm new to self help books but I have purchased ones much better than this one. Save your money.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: easily digestible, except where it's not
Review: This book offers one premise, and does not veer from that premise or expand far beyond it. The premise is simple: like attracts like, good energy attracts goodness, so if you generate positive energy through "feeeeeeling" positive, good things will come to you. Now that you know that, the rest of the information in this book will be mostly anecdotal.

The power of positive thinking is extremely potent, and this book is an easily digestible introduction to this premise. However, I found this message to be compromised by its flip side, which contains a "blame the victim" mentality. For instance, Grabhorn sites the story of a woman who was killed by a rock randomly thrown into her car from an overpass as a demonstration of how a victim's negativity can cause her own demise.

I think this book can potentially have great value in kick-starting a discipline in positive thinking, but like many self-help books, it's important while reading it to separate the pearls of wisdom from the chaff.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great "Pick Me Up-Change Your Attitude" Audio Cassettes
Review: Very positive. I'm going to order 2 more for friends. Lynn narrates it herself. She sounds very "off the cuff and genuine". I'm ready to play it again. It has really changed my life.
