Product Description
Product Description
The need for love begins with your need to love yourself.
Consciously or unconsciously, everyone is trying to enrich and improve their relationships in some way. Enriching our relationships is an art and a science. For this enrichment to happen'even before we can find and accept love'we have to love ourselves.
Through his experience in working with others to heal their pain, Dr. Gray has found patterns and messages that many of us received while growing up. These messages can keep us from loving ourselves'and from loving and receiving love from others. By exploring how these messages became ingrained in us while we were young and how we are using them today, we can change old patterns and thoughts about ourselves and others as well as create long-lasting, fulfilling relationships.
John Gray tells us that "Loving yourself in the presence of others means being able to express your inner gifts and talents without fear. When you don't love yourself and mask your real self, the cycle works in the opposite direction'decreasing love and true self expression."

The importance of expressing our emotions,
By Isabelle (Sunderland, Tyne & Wear United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: What You Feel You Can Heal (Paperback)
Repressing emotions is a tendency that many people have in order to find some kind of protection thinking they will avoid being hurt. But, in actual fact, it doesn't and spoil relationships.This book stresses the importance of expressing our emotions so we can be free from them. As long as we keep our emotions inside we are prisonners of them but when we learn to express them in the right way, free of shame and guilt, then we take control of our life. A good book to read even though I wasn't impressed by the childish drawings and the yellow thick pages.

Before John Gray became an idiot,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: What You Feel You Can Heal (Paperback)
This book shows real insight into human emotion and interpersonal dynamics, presented in a very gentle, simple way. Why he gave up and became the gender stereotyper from hell, I don't know. I guess because it sold better. Too bad, because this is the better approach. He discusses the dynamics of emotional connection without resorting to "men do this, women do that" by showing that when one partner, regardless of gender, behaves a certain way, the other will respond accordingly.The tone of this book, again, is simple, almost childish, but gets the points across. "The Two Step", is the grown-up version. 13 of 15 people found the following review helpful:

Very Very Good,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: What You Feel You Can Heal (Paperback)
This book is very helpful in understanding yourself and your partner. It is a very easy read and could be mistaken as too "simple" - but the beauty of this book is that it has taken some of the most complex feelings and reduced it to bite size ideas and adorable cartoons. I am a highly educated person and thought the cartoons were brilliant (BS, MS, JD) - some reviewers did not like them? Read this book more than once and learn a lot about relationships. I am really hoping to (educationally smart - relationship dummy).

Navigating Negative Emotions,
By Rebecca Johnson "The Rebecca Review" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: What You Feel You Can Heal (Paperback)
"The major cause of human dissatisfaction and frustration is the absence of love." ~ pg. 2
"What You Feel You Can Heal" is an uncomplicated guide to emotions we all experience. John Gray encourages the reader to express their negative emotions in order to create an environment in which love can flourish and grow. The main premise is that repressed emotions block the flow of love. Each page is illustrated with an amusing cartoon, which makes this book a quick read. In a matter of hours you can learn a few useful techniques that allow you to feel more positive about life. John Gray encourages the idea of writing love letters although I still think the section of the letter with all the negative issues (I hate...) might be a bad idea. There is also a strange section on "duplication" where you repeat what someone says in order to become more empathetic. I found the following to be very true: "The people who make you the most angry are the people you care about the most." ~ pg. 2 ~The Rebecca Review |
