Wow, really great reading! This book is a really powerful self-coaching resource. As a wellness coach with a holistic background I totally agree with the Author: even though many natural therapies can alleviate the problem, it’s never the ultimate solution. This is why I got interested in NLP and Life Coaching and it’s something that I am now studying and investigating with passion, these disciplines help people change their mindset and just burn down the ‘ problem-making factory’, instead of just temporarily closing it!As a holistic health practitioner I have seen many people doing 2 hours of yoga per day + 3 hours meditation + popping some natural remedies like homeopathy and Bach flower remedies and sniffing aromatherapy oils(/ of course these are all healthier options than doing drugs but I agree with this Author that the mechanism remains the same!) + of course getting a massage every other day and they were still stressed out. At the same time I have seen people that were not exaggerating that much about their healthy lifestyle and still managed to keep calm and on track. They just trained their minds! Plus..it’s FREE!The exercises that Cyrus recommends really got me interested in the rest of his work that I am surely going to check out. As a regular Amazon reader I must admit that there are way too many self-proclaimed coaches that have no idea what they’re talking about and I am glad I found an author that is serious about the whole thing.I am also glad to see that he does not reject natural therapies( otherwise I wouldn’t be giving him 5 stars, after all I am a holistic spa girl!) but he recognizes that more powerful strategies exist. I will be recommending this book to my clients and I also recommend it to You!I also loved the way it was written- not too scientific but at the same time not too simplistic. Add to it- some great life examples and great sense of humor! Great book, serious author!
