Fulfils the subtitle's promise, 9 Nov 1998
By A Customer
The book takes nothing about the reader for granted and offers even the most cynical or jaded person some inspiring and really practical suggestions for making themselves happier. It made a big difference to me when my life was in crisis and has permanently (I hope) changed my outlook.

Great book!, 16 Sep 2001
It's been a few months since i read Feel the Fear and that changed my life, but after a while i sank back to old negative habits and anxiety, panic attacks etc. this book has been a new boost and encouragement that it is all happening for a reason, everything is ok and life is a gift. even with all the bad stuff that's going on in the world, we can still make our contribution loving and good. susan jeffers is a friend to us all! i am sure that she is busy right now helping people in the USA to cope with their sadness after the recent happenings. there are so many friends i know who would benefit from reading this book, it helps not only those with depression and problems (uh - so that's everyone then at one time or another..?), but even those who are 'sorted'. so don't worry about some of the way it's written and just enjoy the good helpful ideas.

If you only read one self help book read this one!, 8 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This is a beautiful book. Susan Jeffer's concepts are explained in a way that never fail to touch me however many times I come back to this book. There are quotes in the book which provide 'hooks' on which you can hang on to the way of approaching life that Susan Jeffer's is exploring. I have found that these quotes really help me to think again about the way in which I react to events in my life.
The power to change is within and Susan places the tools to do so at your feet, all you have to do is have the courage to pick them up and use them. From my own journey, which is nowhere near complete, I know it is not easy, but I believe that I am nearer to reaching a place of inner peace, calm and acceptance than I was before I read the book.
There is also some of Susan's own writing that is magical, the chapter that starts with 'Listen to the silence' ends with 'As we turn off the sound and move into silence, the dancing can begin. We finally hear the music of our soul, and it is this that gives us peace. As we listen to the music of our soul, we mysteriously and wondrously hear the music of everyone elses as well...and we are at one with the world.'
Read the book, listen to the tape, take the opportunity that Susan Jeffers places before you.
