I can remember a time in my life when I felt like nothing was good. I felt completely unsuccessful, nobody liked me, I'll never find a man who will love me, you name it. All the negativity that I felt, and lived in, was horrific.

Then one day, I was in a book store with my mom, and she found a book, You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay. She had heard from a friend that it was a good book, and thought I should read it, so she bought it for me.

You Can Heal Your Life was the definitive beginning of my spiritual, emotional and physical transformation. What I mean by this, is Louise Hay was able to speak to me, through her writing, in a way that I could understand. I am responsible for my situation. I am responsible for my poor relationships. I am responsible for my own happiness and well being.

"What!", is exactly what I was thinking at first. I went through the, "Yeah, but you don't know how hard it is for me because..." stage. I think everybody feels like that at one point or another in their life. In You Can Heal Your Life, Louise Hay loving lets you know how you are creating certain situations and, more importantly, how to stop creating them!

Louise Hay also shares her personal story. Believe me, she did not write You Can Heal Your Life based on theoretical ideas, she wrote it based on how she was able to overcome her battle with cancer, and shares true methods in detail on how to create health and overall wellness in your life.

The first time I read You Can Heal Your Life, I was just getting over a nasty break-up with some jerky guy, and although I didn't exactly realize that I should never have gone out with him back then, I felt as though I would never find a good man, who will love me as much as I love him. So, that was the part of my life that I wanted to heal.

I followed Louise Hay's instructions to the letter. I wrote out my personal affirmations, and I taped them to my bathroom mirror. Every time I went into my bathroom, I looked into the mirror and recited my affirmations. I thought long and hard about the qualities that I wanted for my boyfriend/future husband. I wrote down the qualities, and kept them in my purse.

About two moths after reading You Can Heal Your Life, and doing the things Louise Hay wrote about, I found a great new job. About two months after that, I started dating the man who later became my loving husband. We have been married for 15, going on 16 years!

I love the You Can Heal Your Life book so much, and know how much it can help you to make a better life, that I bought it for a friend, Gina.

Gina always seemed to be one of those people who hardly had anything good happening in her life. Always something or someone who was making her feel miserable. I think we've all had a friend like that at some point in our lives, and we can either choose to commiserate with that person, and feel sorry for ourselves together, or we can choose to give them the tools to help themselves, and create a positive role model for them. I chose to help her find the positive side of her life, and we helped each other out during difficult times, using the methods we learned in You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay.

I just recently learned that Louise Hay has a movie out also! This is exciting to me, being a fan for so many years. It's called: You Can Heal Your Life: The Movie. So, if you're not interested in reading the book, I would recommend the movie. Now that I know about it, I'm going to go out and buy it for myself. I'll write a review in the future, or if someone has already seen it, and wants to give a shout-out about it, I encourage your comments!
