At first when I received this book for review I thought I was going to learn about getting out and being more active. Once I began to read it, I was pleasantly surprise when instead Gabrielle Bernstein, the author of Add More ~ing to Your Life had written about tapping into your inner guidance and living a happier, more fulfilling life.
Those of you who are familiar with A Course in Miracles will take right to this book. Gabrielle heavily refers to the teachings and explores them with a young, modern approach. It seems the priorities among the younger generations have shifted as 93% of women ages 23-34 say they would rather have happiness than wealth. This is really exciting when you think about it. Especially when you consider when you’re doing something you love, wealth will follow. Even though we consciously know this, actually feeling happy and wealthy seems to be the farthest thing from what we experience.
I really enjoyed her perspective on dealing with the negative ego, otherwise known as your inner critic. She reminds her readers over and over of the importance of being and living in this moment. Life can become so easy when we use that seemingly simple practice in our day to day life.
With the easy to follow steps in her ‘hip’ guide to happiness, you will take a 30 day journey of physical activity, positive affirmations and creative visualization. Her ~ing Equation include: Rethinking, Moving, and Receiving for 30 days. Not only will you have fun reconnecting to yourself, you will experience yourself in a whole new way. If you’re ready to bulldoze your negative thought patterns and move forward in your life, check out her book Add More ~ing to Your Life.
