Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Every problem, Dyer asserts, has a solution in the "sacred self." Our sacred, or spiritual, selves, he explains, represent our true natures. But we lose touch with the sacred self through the interference of ego, which produces anxieties and leads us to feel frustration, strife and pain and to inflict these on others. Here Dyer (Your Erroneous Zones) offers strategies for freeing oneself from the tyranny of ego and getting back in touch with the sacred self. He suggests that it is only through this reformation of individual consciousness that global problems such as war and poverty can be overcome. Peppered with inspirational quotes from sources as diverse as Emily Dickinson and Janis Joplin, his manual is noteworthy for its encouragement of tolerance and self-acceptance. But his reliance on New Age rhetoric will probably leave skeptical readers unconvinced. Author tour.

LOOKING INWARD,
By A Customer
This review is from: Your Sacred Self (Mass Market Paperback)
I am going through major life changes...divorce, left my job, changing my behaviors...this book helped me to look inward at my self and the potentially hazardous ways I live (emotionally, physically, spiritually). This books helps to identify personality traits that you may be using that is keeping you from being your higher self..the book doesn't force or expect you to believe in God (if you don't believe) but it does make you look for a deeper connection with you and "your higher power". If you need direction, want change, want answers to why we do what we do, want to be joyful, content, and happy--GET THIS BOOK and follow its direction!! I thank my friend for lending it to me!

This Book Changed My Life,
By Jim Dufour (Kingsville, Ontario, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Your Sacred Self: Making the Decision to Be Free (Paperback)
I purchased this book originally back when it was first published. I decided I needed the paperback copy to bring to work with me so I can keep it fresh in my mind. I may have been at the right place at the right time but back when I first read this book it changed my life like nothing else ever has. So many of the teachings and subtle truths really are monumental when I stop to consider their weight.I remember being so focused and so fulfilled when I was putting the things this book teaches into daily practice. That's why I just bought it again. I have gotten away from the practical things in this book and I know I need to take inventory of what I am thinking and doing before I act. The biggest help I got out of this book is how the ego is described and how to be in control of it, rather than it of you. I'm not real keen on the current day Wayne Dyer, but I would recommend this book to anyone who really wants to change who they see themselves becoming.
