Review
"I am now walking with a smile on my lips. A year ago I wouldn't have thought it possible." Kent Arne, Stockholm.
"What an inspiring, wonderful book you have written. It has opened up a whole new direction for me." Mavis U. Johannesburg, S.A.
"Having just read your book for the second time, I am again overwhelmed by its power and love. You really have 'carried the message' for me." Bob G. Waterside, Scotland
"I have read lots of self-help books since coming into recovery, but none has spoken so clearly and directly to an alcoholic as yours. I now have such a sense of direction." Jacqueline K. Glosture, U.K.
"I have always felt there was something missing in my growth on the program, and now your words have brought tears to my eyes, probably becauase another human being has heard my cries." Deborah D. Ontario, Canada.
"Though I have never been to a 12-step study program, I can't begin to tell you how much your book has helped me. You have presented material that so many writers make complicated, into such an easy approach. I plan on using your book as I would the Bible." Barbara C. Upland, California -- LETTERS FROM READERS
"In a departure from the traditional approach to the 'spiritual side' of twelve step recovery, Lynn Grabhorn's book BEYOND THE TWELVE STEPS; ROADMAP TO A NEW LIFE invites the reader to move beyond structured thinking and gain contact with Who and What they truly are. She expertly brings together the concept of Higher Power in control, and that that control comes from within. BEYOND THE TWELVE STEPS is not only for those in recovery, but for anyone searching for meaning and direction in life." -- CONCEPTS MAGAZINE
"Truly, this is an important new book which stands out from the plethora of recovery literature. Acknowledging the debt she owes to Alcoholics Anonymous, the author encourages the reader to move beyond self-imposed limitations and answer the 'call to Home,' the longing for the connection with the God within." -- SMALL PRESS MAGAZINE
--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

A wonderful book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beyond the Twelve Steps: Roadmap to a New Life (Paperback)
If you have done the 12 Steps and find yourself asking yourself "okay, now what?" then this book will help you. All we are ever looking for in sex, drugs, alcohol, food, etc, is God -- our own inner Beingness which is always whole, complete and perfect. The step after the twelve steps (call it the thirteenth step, perhaps) is to wake up to who and what we are. The twelve steps are a ladder we use to raise our awareness to the point where we can realize that what we have been seeking "out there" and trying to fulfill through our addiction, was really just a running away from the tremendously beautiful and loving being that we are. Use this book as an opportunity to stop running away -- to stop telling yourself the lie that you are something other than perfection in your very being. We are not our minds, nor our bodies, nor our feelings. How can we be sure? Because we can witness them. If we can witness something, how can it be us? It can't be. So, the question becomes, "Who am I?" The answer is what you have been looking for all along. A note to the person who left the not so nice comments (the reader from Longmeadow, MA USA): Your comment was rude, not loving, and not supportive. If you want to help her (which you seem to proclaim), then simply love her -- which means accept her exactly as she is -- 100% without trying to change or control her. Try not to be so hard on yourself because you are taking it out on others. If you slipped up, would you really want others to treat you in such a judgemental and demeaning way or would you want them to be loving and truthful with you? Character bashing is never necessary nor helpful -- that only helps grow our own ego. Anyway, a great book, which I highly recommend. If you've done the twelve steps and have managed to remain sober, then now make the decision to be who you were always destined to be -- your perfect, Divine Self. You are beautiful. If you don't feel like it, then drop the "disapproval stick" that you walk around with whacking yourself with all the time -- and start approving of yourself, completely. That's all you need to do. If you approved of yourself 100%, you'd be There, with a capital "T". What's there not to love?

truly one of the best books I have EVER read!!!,
By "swtldyjn" (NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beyond the Twelve Steps: Roadmap to a New Life (Paperback)
Lynn has a very down to earth way of explaining expanded thought processes. If you follow what she teaches in her books and tapes you will FEEL the energy buzzing through you, see things in a new way, and be on your way to becoming a master instead of a victim of life. Her books are so powerful that I gave both of them as gifts this year for the holidays to many of my friends and family. Because I Love them, I wanted to give them a chance to develop that awesome sense of power that comes from creating your own reality.(excuse me, your life is waiting is also incredible!jane

The Author's Latest Book Negates This One,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beyond the Twelve Steps: Roadmap to a New Life (Paperback)
How unfortunate that Grabhorn's latest book, Dear God! What's Happening To Us? negates any positive messages or information from THIS book.In her latest, she admits to "drinking again after four decades of sobriety" and, worse, she blames it all on a group she calls "The Others". Where's the Self-Responsibility? Where's the Trust in the HIGHER Power? Too bad. It's a shame she's choosing to self-destruct her writing career. Hopefully, enough bad reviews of her newest book will get her to (once again) seek the help she needs with her alcoholism.
