Wayne Dyer: Understanding the Life and Teachings of Dr. Wayne Dyer by Dr. Ruth Carr

Review
"Wayne Dyer," by Dr. Ruth Carr, is a book about Dr. Wayne Dyers's teachings on self-improvement.

The book covers everything from discovering your purpose to how to remain humble.

The author, Dr. Ruth Carr, a clinical psychologist and counselor, did an excellent job of writing a book that captures both Dyer's life story and teachings.

Dyer (nicknamed The Father of Motivation) has had a singular quest to help people improve their lives, and this book is organized around that goal.

The book begins with a background on Dyer's life, starting with his time in orphanages.

The rest of the book is based primarily on Dyer's teachings, but does include some information about his life, such as the details of his trips to the East.

Carr does an excellent job of distlling Dyer's teachings into easy-to-understand chapters.

The book is organized in short chapters that each cover a topic, so the information is both comprehensive yet succinct.

Much of the teachings have to do with learning to accept yourself and then deciding how to improve yourself.

Overall, if you are looking for a book about how to become a better person through self-assessment and spirituality, then this book is for you.

Love Yourself: The Secret Key to Transforming Your Life by Embrosewyn Tazkuvel

 

Review
"Love Yourself: The Secret Key to Transforming Your Life," by Embrosewyn Tazkuvel and narrated by John Eastman, is an insightful meditation on the transformative power of self-love.

In his 39-minute audiobook, Tazkuvel encourages readers to begin with loving themselves, rather than first seeking love from another person.  

Tazkuvel believes that loving yourself is the foundational energy of life, which is not selfish or vain, but is the energy that cultivates better relationships with others, reaches the most primal part of our being, and connects us deeply with the divine. Tazkuvel says that love is "ambrosia for the soul."

The first step to experiencing the magic power of love is to sincerely affirm self-love everyday by saying, "I love you," in the mirror.  In workshops the author has led, the majority struggle with this seemingly simple task.

The book concludes with 88 compelling reasons why you should love yourself.  A few examples include: loving yourself enough to have a vision for the future, to have a passion, to have moral courage, to repent, to gain knowledge, to laugh, and to love and be loved.

The book is well written, and the audio-narration provides readers with a relaxing time for introspection and a new challenge to love oneself.

“Love Yourself: The Secret Key to Transforming Your Life” is a superb companion on one’s journey of self-love that will empower readers to lead happier, healthier, and more fulfilled lives.
