Amazon.com TV personality Suzanne Somers offers a book of 365 daily affirmations， designed to create a "shift in thinking." "Holding onto old hurts and programmed ideals creates blockages that prevent change and growth，" she writes. "Do you really desire happiness， peace of mind， and serenity? You can have it.... But you have to surrender the old hurts and self-serving thinking." By reading her day-by-day essays， readers will find support in being more honest with oneself， healing relationships， creating tranquility， committing to soul dreams， and listening to intuition. So often people put off bliss and peace， assuming they are gifts for the future， notes Somers. But why wait for our birthrights， when the present is here， right now， just waiting to be appreciated? Somers's heart is in the right place， and although she is more accurately described as a caring celebrity than a disciplined spiritual guru， her legion of fans will find this a tender and meaningful companion to guide them through years ahead. --Gail Hudson From Library Journal Day-by-day practical advice from the actress on improving one's life.
