Summary: Big information, Little book!
Review: Don't let the size of this book fool you. It's all you need to begin affecting change in your life. So much power within the red and white cover... Setting intentions(making wishes)is nothing to take lightly and this book emphasizes this point by showing you how to set yours effectively. It also gives you key details about what to expect once you do "make your wish" and why things may happen as they happen. Laura Day breaks the whole process down into 3 sections with 3 elements within each section. This makes it easy for the reader to grasp each level. I read it straight through and then went back to each element to re-read it and complete the action at the end.I have read many books on intuition, creativity, and searching for your life's purpose. I plan to donate them all to my local library because "The Circle" is all I need to find and begin my true life path. Peace to All! Veo

Summary: An extraordinary book by an extraordinary woman.
Review: Few could have been as skeptical as I was when I first picked up a book by Laura Day. However, I have since come to believe both in the power of intuition and in Laura Day's powerful ability to teach it to others. I hope that others will avail themselves of the opportunity to learn new skills to bring themselves closer to their goals more quickly than they ever imagined. I'm not surprised to learn that I am not alone in my admiration of Laura Day, and that my high opinion is shared by others in a variety of professions, e.g. "Brilliant and practical. If you follow the suggestions in her book, it will be impossible for you to avoid unparalleled success and fulfillment."
--Deepak Chopra "Laura takes readers of this book by the hand and helps them reconnect with a lost or forgotten part of themselves. If you allow yourself the freedom to follow her guidance with an open mind, I am sure you will."
--Bruno Del Rosso, M.D. "Einstein was reported to have said that we only use 2 percent to 10 percent of our ability. With intuition it is possible to go far beyond that ... Laura lays it all out here. Intuition is a system. It is much more than a feeling, much more than an idea. And it works."
--Martin Edleston, publisher of Boardroom Reports "THE CIRCLE takes fate and puts it in the hands of anyone who has the courage to dream and the commitment to follow their own inner knowing."
--Nicole Kidman "Laura Day is a remarkable woman with remarkable abilities."
--Demi Moore "I believe in the gut and I believe in Laura Day."
--Brad Pitt "Helpful, insightful, fun to read. A must-have self-help guide."
--Lillian Vernon, founder and CEO, Lillian Vernon Corporation "Intuition isn't mystical. It's a sort of background sense of how things should work; it's facts hidden in the brain. Intuition is logic. Laura Day guides you step-by-step through a systematic approach to getting in touch with this important faculty."
--Dr. James Watson, Nobel Laureate and co-discoverer of DNA THE CIRCLE is an extraordinary book by an extraordinary woman, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for insights into how they can reach their goals more efficiently and expeditiously. --Karen Page, Chair, Harvard Business School alumnae network

Summary: A gentle, healing, and magical approach to living.
Review: I have heard, 'you create your own reality' over and over in my many new-age, and metaphysical explorations. Many offer magic without foundation or consideration of what's practical. Working in The Circle as explained by Laura Day in this book is pure practical magic with foundation. There is NO something for nothing magic in the Circle... there is real magic. The Circle is a process which is clearly outlined in this book. It is also a living, breathing process by which we can live our lives, and expect support from the universe, and our intuition. We each create our own realities. The Circle, explains the process behind that statement simply, with more detail, clarity and inclusivness than I've experienced before now. Laura Day offers a simple step by step approach, to working the gifts and abilities we each possess. Creating what you want is not magical at all working with this process, it's very practial. What's magical is the way when working through the steps, the universe aligns behind your efforts, and your intuition focuses on your goal. Whether you have a big wish, or just a small one, bringing it into The Circle by going through the steps will grow you enough to have it be. This past weekend, I was faced with an inner challenge (a little wish) with potentially large consequences. As I brought that wish into The Circle, very quickly I realized that I needed support to face the challenge, I first requested support from all of the intuitives at The Practical Intuition Forum. My intuition then revealed to me my oldest friend, whom I hadn't even seen in two years. When I called to ask her to join me & support me, I was amazed to discover we were each going through similar issues, and it seemed highly unlikely she would be able to support me... I brought all of this back into the steps of the Circle, for more intuition, clarity, whatever... well guess what!, the universe aligned behind me; although she was not working with the circle, she went into work the next morning and with clarity expressed boundaries on previously 'deaf ears', the pieces fell into place, and was available to join & support me. I put one small wish into the Circle, and both of us experienced healing, growth, and an amazing re-union. The most amazing synchronicity is that at exactly the time I first called and was leaving a message for her, she was in the location where we first met 20 years ago, and shared with her husband that this was where she met me. This is just an example of the MAGIC of The Circle. My recommendation...This book is a KEEPER, BUY IT, READ IT, COMMIT YOURSELF... ...AND WISH AWAY!

Summary: Shift Happens With Laura Day....
Review: I have now read The Circle three times. In addition, I have attended a 5-day intensive workship with Laura Day. Let me simply say that for ANYONE wanting to manifest their dreams, OR discover their dream, this simple and amazing book is a must read. Laura Day has purposely written The Circle so it's accessible to anyone and everyone - it's a joy to read, and if one follows her simple lead and exercises, life will CHANGE. She is the "real deal" folks, and has a wonderfully practical approach to otherwise "airy-fairy" new age modalities. Please do yourself a favor.....enter The Circle, follow her lead, and watch life change.....for the better, I might add. This book gets 5 stars.

Summary: Airy: Left me hungry for more which is a GOOD thing.....
Review: I have only read this book once... and it gives me the impression that I will probably increase my assessment (and rating) over time as I integrate Laura Day's message and wisdom into my daily practice. Her writing style is almost angelic -- I don't want to say fluffy because that sounds as if I don't value her message -- I truly do... AND I also want to recognize it may take time for some readers to have that light go on.. that Shift that one reviewer noted... to happen. Perhaps two readings through, journaling continuing (as she suggests) and continuing to being open to the Circle and the Gifts in each element. This is probably my favorite feature of the book. Day approaches Conscious Creation from making a "Wish" and she suggests creating "Reality Tales" (a la the old 'Fairy Tales'). She suggests the reader keep a Circle Journal as the initial wish manifests... and the stages... each stage, she says, includes a gift.... which is very aligned with my thinking and belief as well. I strongly encourage anyone who is intrigued by this book to get a copy and begin the process and watch what unfolds. And then read it again, continue the process and watch what unfolds. And do it again. And Again. And Again.

Summary: Divinely Inspired - An absolute MUST READ!!
Review: I have read every inspirational author that I know of for the past 20 years. Not since Og Mandino's "The Greatest Miracle in the World" have I read such a moving, encourging and wonderful book! Laura Day has given us a divine gift in this work. It is a work of love which proclaims the oneness of humankind and the importance of our realizing that seamless spirit. If you have ever wanted to have faith, if you've ever been afraid to hope or dream, then The Circle by Laura Day is your Divine appointment. Richard Michael Nesta

Summary: Everyone should have a copy of this book!
Review: I was stunned by the beauty of this book, not only by its looks but also by its message. "Take all your experiences, thoughts and emotions into the circle. Use them as creative energy to shape the world you want." When I read those words, I knew that this book would make a perfect gift for everyone I know -- those who are happy with their lives and those who are not. The author's comment that "most of us have lost touch with our innate human ability to create" rang true to me. I read every word of this book, and I rarely do that. Review by Mary Anne Thomas, author of "Ask and You Shall Receive."

Summary: A deceptively simple but powerful book -- don't miss it!
Review: I wish I could buy a copy of Laura Day's book THE CIRCLE for everyone I know. What greater gift is there to give someone other than the power to make their dreams come true? THE CIRCLE: How the Power of a Single Wish Can Change Your Life shows readers how to harness energy both within you and all around you that you never knew existed, and how one carefully crafted wish can serve as a match to ignite potent and lasting transformation in our lives. Each of the book's three sections -- Initiation (intentionality, embodiment, ritual), Apprenticeship (synchronicity, making space, coherence), and Mastery (outer roadblocks, inner roadblocks, contact) -- features exercises that lead readers to discover the hidden potential in themselves, in others, and in the surrounding universe. I have used this information to bring me closer to my goals than ever before -- and I have Laura Day to thank for that! As Laura herself writes in the opening words of THE CIRCLE: "You are the intuitive, you are the healer, you are the creator. In THE CIRCLE, all of the gifts of human being are yours. You are enough, right now, to create anything you dream for yourself and others. Open this book and enter THE CIRCLE."
