If you're not a Christian believer, then caveat emptor. But if a believer, then this book is not for you. The author thoroughly espouses New Age beliefs and techniques. Her background is Church of Religious Science, Trancendental Meditation, Maharishi Yogi and a Course in Miracles. All of these are pantheistic and primarily based on Hinduism.
Christians believe that God is our healer and source and not "out of this one intelligence comes all the answers, all the solutions, all the healings. . ." This wisdom Louise talks about comes from within.
Christians believe that a personal God, revealed in Jesus Christ, created the world and its rules and operations. We do not have unlimited power. We do have some creative power and, yes, our mind does have strong influence - as the scripture teaches. By adopting new thought patterns we can certainly change our landscape to a large degree, but we are not God and unlimited.
She teaches certain statements (affirmations) can heal and protect you in all circumstances. To a believer, this is nonsense. Affirmations such as "I am the power in my world" or "All is well in my world" do not change reality automatically. We believe God grants us a certain measure of authority, but the power is His.
A large portion of the book lists diseases and conditions with their accompanying affirmations. These do provide some limited insight, but the idea that we can create our own reality is out of bounds. I am glad the author was healed and gained insight, but, I'm sorry, I can't take the whole package.

I love this book. I have to keep buying it, because I always give it away to people who seem to need it. It's a great way to take ownership of your body and the illnesses you create.

Learn to Love Yourself1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
This book is similar to the book "The Secret" and all the wonderful things that can happen in your life when you see yourself in a positive light. Louise Hay was way ahead of her time when she starting teaching her motivational classes. This book is worth reading over and over for self-help in learning to love yourself and love your life. Everyone needs to keep positive and move forward in this hectic time.

Very helpful book!1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
I love this book - so much so that I have given it to a lot of relatives and friends. Louise Hay is a wonderful teacher, and I'm very grateful for having the opportunity to read this book. I still refer back to it sometimes even though I have read it from cover to cover several times.

This is a very important book for new thought readers. Helps you to see the changes you may need to make. I have loaned this book out so much that I now just buy it and give. Everyone loves it. The last person I gave it to said it was a lot like the "Secret". I think it is much better at explaining the secret. You can't go wrong with this book!

You can Heal Your LifeVery good book about taking control of your own life and situation. I had the book in the past and gave it to a friend, but wanted a new copy. You can make significant changes in your life and health by following Ms. Hay's instructions.

Excellent book, very insightful and easy to followI really like this book, it is very interesting, thought-provoking and useful. I've read it through once, and am now starting it again (as recommended) so I can start the exercises in earnst and hopefully begin to heal my life. The book is very inspiring and encouraging and outlines a step by step process to change ways of thinking that can be very harmful and cause dis-ease, and unhappiness. Readers find out that Louise knows of what she speaks because she healed herself using these methods. I would highly recommend this book for anyone who is serious about wanting a better quality, happier and healthier life.
