"Letting Go" by Dr David R Hawkins

The core message in this book changed my life forever. It helped me learn to feel uncomfortable feelings in my body so that my innate abilities to process and integrate them allowed me to move from a place of avoidance and/or suppression to a place of peace. The technique allowed me to recover fully from several chronic physical health conditions and decades of dysfunctional coping strategies.

"Loving What Is" by Byron Katie

Learn "The Work" which involves asking 4 simple questions to interrogate specific problems that show up repeatedly in your life. It's a fabulously simple but life changing approach.

"Tell Yourself a Better Lie" by Marisa Peer

This book was my first introduction to Marisa Peer and swiftly led me to a career changing decision. I am now a certified RTT® Hypnotherapist and helping clients to overcome lifelong emotional and physical issues because of the astonishing power of this book.

"The Untethered Soul" by Michael J Singer

I was profoundly resistant to the concept of soul until I read this seminal work by Michael Singer. I had previously read his biography, "The Surrender Experiment" and was convinced of his veracity as a spiritual teacher born of direct experience. His podcast is now a regular listen for me as I find peace and courage in listening to Michael Singer's compassionate, uncompromising, simple message. Feel your feelings, relax and let them play out before you react in any given situation, the resulting change in your whole being will change everything.

"You Are The Placebo" by Dr Joe Dispenza

In reality, I could have picked any book by Dr Joe Dispenza, but this was my first. He has a compelling narrative of his own journey to healing and presents the science to explain the apparent miraculous healing from physical and emotional problems. He dispels the "woo woo" and provides a concrete base to launch into your healing journey. Highly recommended if you need science based proof.
