Customer Reviews

Good read

I enjoyed this book. A great read indeed. Only one chapter leaped out at me...............and just the one paragraph in that chapter..............BUT..........it made all the difference in the world and was a true epiphony (sp) for me. For others, a different part might be your life saver, but keep reading til you find it. Another great but VERY DEEP book to consider is 'The Seat of the Soul'. I'm labouring through it, but I know it will be very revealing. bfn Liz

Janice Berger's "Emotional Fitness"

Excellent book. Easy to read, but filled with much useful, hands-on information for those ready to heal their lives.

A Clear and Inspirational Guide Towards a Sense of Self

"Emotional Fitness: Discovering Our Natural Healing Power" goes beyond where other self-help writing leaves off - challenging much of what we have been told to be true and offering a sound alternative to healing. For the past twenty-five years as a psychotherapist, I have wanted to be able to use and recommend a resource that makes sense and offers wisdom and encouragement for increasing our capacity to live with vibrancy. Emotional Fitness does just that. In its pages, we easily recognize ourselves in our efforts to cope with the lingering impact of our past. We are shown how to move through emotional blocks by allowing our feelings and connecting them back to the time when we were not supported in expressing ourselves. Confusion and self-condemnation disappear as we become more aware and appreciative of our search for wellness. Increasingly, we can trust that by opening to our pain, we are freer to take the necessary risks to move forward in our lives. In describing how to create opportunities for healing, Emotional Fitness provides a clear road map back to ourselves and to the riches we will discover within.

This Book Changed My Life!

"Emotional Fitness" changed my life...I hope it will change my children's lives, too. For anyone needing a roadmap on the journey to healing, self-discovery, insight and emotional awareness, this book is a "must-have". I have loaned it to friends, who are now buying their own copies. It is easy to read and profoundly helpful.

A Timeless Work That Delivers

Growth, healing and change are often related to one another and for those of us who are interested in making real and lasting change in our lives, Emotional Fitness offers a tremendous amount of help. Down to earth, clear and straightforward, the book has become a cornerstone in my library. It was first released in Canada in a relatively quiet way and slowly but steadily has become a Canadian bestseller. I have read its contents many times over, each time getting something more. It has been especially helpful to me as a parent and a husband. Emotional Fitness focuses on the roots of our emotional make-up and how to engage our natural healing process to help us grow and move forward in our lives. I highly recommend this book!!!
