Amazon.com (ISBN 0937611018, Paperback)If you haven't seen Hay House's Lifestyles series of gorgeous gift books, there is no better way to acquaint yourself than with publisher/author Louise Hay's You Can Heal Your Life. A bestseller for many years, You Can Heal Your Life has been republished with bright, beautiful illustrations in full, living color and exquisite typography--each and every page is a work of art by artist Joan Perrin Falquet. The timeless message of the book is that we are each responsible for our own reality and "dis-ease." Hay believes we make ourselves ill by having thoughts of self-hatred. She includes a directory of ailments and emotional causes for each with a corresponding affirmation to help overcome the illness. For example, the probable cause of multiple sclerosis is "mental hardness, hard-heartedness, iron will, and inflexibility." The healing "thought pattern" would be: "By choosing loving, joyous thoughts, I created a loving joyous world. I am safe and free." --P.

This has become a classic book based on the author's metaphysical work as a therapist. She came into her own in the early 1980's with the HayRide workshops for people diagnosed with HIV-AIDS. Her foundation and start-up publishing company, HayHouse, began from this era.
I also recommend watching the 2-DVD version of this book, You Can Heal Your Life The Movie, with accompanying interviews of several authors we are already familiar with: Wayne W. Dyer, Gregg Braden, Cheryl Richardson, Esther Hicks, Jerry Hicks, Doreen Virtue, Ph.D., Candace B. Pert, Ph.D., Mona Lisa Schulz, M.D., Ph.D., Christiane Northrup, M.D., Gay Hendricks, Leon Nacson. Music by Jim Brickman.
Her work centers around affirmations, or making positive statements concerning the way you want your life to be. For people unfamiliar with this concept it may seem to be a stretch at first because there is a certain amount of letting go of old ways of thinking that must be done. It is difficult at first to even believe that creating what you want could be as easy as changing your thoughts. But I've seen it happen in my own life, and I've read many books around this area over a period of years, and it really does come down to your thoughts, attitudes, and general feelings controlling what your life becomes.
As the scientists on the DVD attest to, these ideas are scientifically valid and becoming more widespread and accepted by people in all walks of life. (
