You Can Heal Your Life

Louise Hay

This was a pivotal book for me when I was a young adult. Someone gifted it to me and I didn’t understand why. Until it was my time. And when it was the right moment, this book changed my life.

Since then I have cherished and held the wisdom from this one close to my heart. I’ve dipped in and out of this one many times and loved soaking up the wonderful words she so delicately delivers to help people like us.

“Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.”

It’s a self help book that is all about how the power of our thoughts can change our emotional, mental and physical health. Louise Hay has a story to tell and she shares her own experiences from the outset, in a succinct and humble way. She then guides you through the ways in which we can learn to love ourselves. It includes ideas on how to have kind thoughts, self compassion and life changing affirmations.

“I say “Out” to every negative thought that comes to my mind. No person, place, or thing has any power over me, for I am the only thinker in my mind. I create my own reality and everyone in it.”

I would not be here in the ‘lighthouse’ kind of way if it wasn’t for this book. It really changed my world and I continue to use the lessons learnt for myself, with my little humans and with clients. I believe that we can re-train our subconscious by using positive statements of love and affection. Once we see this, truly see it, there is no turning back.
