About this title

Review:

‘Unlike the pious drivel and boring platitudes of many self-help or inspirational books, THE TRANSFORMATIVE POWER OF CRISIS is hard-hitting, peeling back the layers of illusion and rationalization by which most of us live... Every reader will be enriched by the authors’
wisdom’. – Harville Hendrix, author of Getting the Love You Want

From the Back Cover:

Like all journeys, getting the soul right takes a while. Our lives are like an emotional roller coaster – there are ups and downs, the negative and the positive – but we can learn from our past mistakes to create the life we want. Getting the soul right is an intrepid inner journey where we look at the negative parts of our lives, understand where they came from and ultimately go about freeing ourselves from them. Once free, we are able to embrace the positive aspects of ourselves. Getting the soul right is learning to be who we already are. With uplifting and engaging real life-life stories, psychotherapists Robert and Jane Alter reveal how we can unlock our own true nature and use it to achieve our goals and desires:
· Overcome painful experiences from the past, to help you thrive now and in the future.
· Create more fulfilling and passionate bonds with your spouse or partner.
· Develop a deep and empowering sense of self-confidence.
· Raise children with strong minds and hearts
· Conquer the patterns of behaviour that hold you back from the life of your dreams

"A wonderful journey of experience, wisdom and reflection, which if you take it seriously will change your life."
HARVILLE HENDRIX, Ph.D. author of 'Getting the Love You Wannt'

"Humour, wisdom and vision enlighten every page of this honest guide to the journey of life."
JOAN BORYENSKO, author of 'Minding the Body, Mending the Mind'
