Excellent discourse with Louise Hay

I really enjoyed this book. Basically, it is a discourse between Robert Holden (RH) and Louise Hay (LH). I think it is better when an author does the narrating themselves, as it gives more meaning and authority to the content. RH does an excellent job in interweaving quotations, his own antidotes and stories with the main transcript of time he spent with LH. At the time of writing LH was in her mid-eighties and approaching the latter stages of her life. She died of natural causes in her sleep aged 90 in 2017. Although LH had officially 'retired' when the book was written the content is a fascinating insight into her beliefs and summary of how she approached life. I didn't know just how difficult things had been for her as a child and the bit about her enduring her stepfather's sexual abuse and swallowing poisonous berries aged 9 was quite shocking. However, bad I thought my own upbringing was, this book really put things into context. Her own parent's childhoods weren't great and she states (without condoning bad behavior) that they couldn't teach her anything they didn't know. 'Resentment only eats away at the self' she points out. Her commitment to affirmations was amazing and RH tells the reader that after studying the work of Florence Scovel Shinn and Ernest Holmes (Church of Religious Science) plus others, she literally taught her self how to think and speak differently. Her message of forgiveness and understanding is an inspiration to all.

A Workbook that transforms from the inside out

In spite of being Very fond of Robert Holden and Louise Hay and how they change the world one moment big or small at a time, I admit that ' little I' initially thought it was too sweet. Then committing 100%: the inquiring exercises are amazing and are now recreating a big peaceful space in me, who habitually is pacing to do and be the best mostly.
Note: It is a workbook to revisit many times. So note timing of the listening edition where exercises start as the wording is important.
