Review:

"A lively and highly practical book, full of wisdom and pragmatic solutions. I will recommend it to both my clients and my friends."
--Susan Forward, Ph.D., New York Times bestselling author of Toxic Parents and Emotional Blackmail

"An eye opening journey into the oft overlooked realm of what separates happy, successful, and fulfilled people from those who seem to struggle through life."

"Every woman I know needs the sound, simple, and satisfying advance Mira Kirshenbaum so effectively offers here. Read this life-changing book, and you'll not only release the negative emotions that are paralyzing your life-you'll also reclaim the positive energy necessary to add more joy to your days and vitality to your years. I highly recommend it!"
--Debra Waterhouse, M.P.H., R.D., author of Outsmarting Female Fatigue

"Fascinating! I think people need to grasp the premise in this book that physical energy amounts to only 30% of total energy. 70% of a person's energy must come from emotional energy. All this untapped energy and we're not even tuned in. Everyone should read this book. Thyroid patients could especially be empowered with such knowledge."
--Kelly R. Hale, President, American Foundation of Thyroid Patients

"Mira Kirshenbaum's latest book addresses the most important and least understood ingredient in maintaining high energy. This practical, easy to understand book takes cutting edge research and puts it in the hands and hearts of everyone who wants the opportunity for a high spirited life. Every patient I see asks me how to increase energy; Mira has provided the answer. Highly recommended."
--Arthur P.Ciaramicoli, Ed.D., Ph.D., author of The Power of Empathy

"Mira Kirshenbaum's book brims over with emotional energy, providing clear access to the rich resources we all carry within us....I recommend this book to all of us who tend to feel deeply depleted by the demands and stresses of our busy lives."
--Rabbi Ted Falcon, Ph.D., author of A Journey of Awakening and co-author of Judaism For Dummies

"THE EMOTIONAL ENERGY FACTOR is like a good night's sleep combined with a visit with a good friend--it reached me at a moment in need, and helped immeasurably. Who among us isn't trying to do too much? Who doesn't want and need more energy? This book is a must-read, offering the best answers I've seen anywhere. It is the true energy source for the 21st century!"
--Nicole Wise, co-author of The Over-Scheduled Child

"Reading [this book] is like sitting down with a wise, caring, high-energy friend. You come away refreshed, rejuvenated, and inspired by dozens of new ways to re-energize yourself."
--Mary J. Shomon, author of Living Well With Hypothyroidism and Living Well With Autoimmune Disease

"This book arrived at such a good time for me. I was feeling emotionally drained with family things and so utterly depleted, but just sitting down with Mira's book brought tears to my eyes. It is so filled with kindness and understanding and encourages such self-compassion. What a wonderful, life-affirming book."
--Sandi Shelton, author of Preschool Confidential

--Susan Bakos, author of Still Sexy

"This book provides millions of Americans with the opportunity to live a productive and meaningful life. By utilizing the revolutionary tools to cultivate emotional energy, Mira Kirshenbaum has provided Baby Boomers with a clear strategy to cultivate self meaning. This is one of the best books on the topic I have read in years! Bravo! An incredible and insightful resource."
