Product Description
Review
This book was a pleasure to read fun and very thought-provoking. Written from the heart, it is the perfect tool for students and clients starting on their healing journey: a compendium of 365 daily tasks, thoughts and deeds, that provide sound advice on how to make achievable incremental changes, without pain and without strain. I would not recommend trying to read the book in one hit as there are too many gems of wisdom, which need to be absorbed and utilised at a gentle rate to have best effect. Keep a few copies in your healing room - they will not be there for long! --Nikki Zalewski, In Touch magazine, The Healing Trust

I read a lot of self help books as part of my job. Which means that usually, I'm extra critical of 'yet another' in the field. But not this one.
This one not only comes from a 'life examined'; the author has clearly been to the dark places and that shows through in her writing. The book not only comes from her years of workshop teaching, she obviously has under her belt years of helping folk through their problems. And - unusually for the genre - the book's also well written: lovely turns of phrase and an unput-downable style.
So you may, like me, find yourself reading the whole book from cover to cover just for the joy of it. But then... the fun begins. For the way you're meant to use it is day by day, one task at a time, for the next year.
And here the book keeps its promise on two levels. First, it delivers 365 days of interesting and challenging tasks, some light, some serious, all thought-provoking. And also - I can see this despite the fact that I'm only a few days into it - it's going to deliver a year of personal change, pace by pace, baby steps to harder tasks.
I suspect that "The Best Year of Your Life" will effect a turning point in its readers... that if you trust in and follow the book, not only the next year but also the succeeding years of your life are likely to be the best ever!

I have read many self-help books and this one is different. It's like a wise friend offering a timely piece of advice every day - just enough to get you thinking or doing something that you wouldn't ordinarily do. Some days it's a big ask, on others it's a small, cute suggestion that will make you smile. Every day is different - you look forward to what Jane is going to suggest next, with her inspiring and warm tone. I found many gems of wisdom that I wanted to keep and use over and over.
I would recommend this as reading for those who are new to self-help books and those who have `done the rounds' because it really is a treasure. No fluff, no-nonsense, just doable stuff designed to help anyone change for the better and, because it's not heavy-going, it is achievable - five minutes a day - easy! But don't read it all in one go - enjoy the gentle, gradual process of transformation, then you'll have the pleasure of looking back at the end of the year and seeing what strides you've made...
I found it a thoroughly enjoy read, and now I will use it to dip into when I need a little lift or motivation...

I've read quite a few self help books and this one is by far the best. A lot of books are either cold and impersonal, or over gushy, not so this one; It feels like the author is a freind you are turning to for advice and its a book to read over and over whether you choose to actually work through the whole year or just dip in when you've had a bad day. It is also clear that the author has walked the walk as well as talking the talk.
Highly reccomended

Perfect mix
I've become a bit jaded with self help books over the years. Lots of promise and little practical delivery (lots of theorising) in many of them. Read more
