Reviews

&quot;Following the principles put forth in this book will help us all to become the universal humans we were born to be. It's a step towards the conscious evolution of our planet. I endorse this work fully.&quot;<div>-Barbara Marx Hubbard, president, Foundation for Conscious Evolution<br /></div><br /><br /><div>February 16, 2009: Toni Lamotta's book is a delightful reminder of the truths we learn and relearn from wonderful and respected teachers brought together in a fresh new format.It is a welcome journey into the heart of Truth without disregarding the human factor. It's all well and good to remind me that thoughts are things, but please remember I have an ego at work simultaneously urging me to stub my toe and tumble downward into amnesia. Toni acknowledges the human tendency while guiding us ever toward the light of Peace and well being. It is a joy and I have recommeded it to my friends who remind me to focus on peace, abundance and joy and watch the wonderful way the Universe can work.<br /></div>
