Best daily reading I know

My wife and I have read "The Garland of Love" every day for the past 10 years over breakfast. We are both clinical psychologists (Imago Relationship Therapy) that specialize in couples and read from it before each therapy session with a couple to get ourselves centered. All our three copies are falling apart from so much handling. We recommend it to all couples and give it as gifts at all our friends weddings. We have sold or given away at least 100 copies.

Immerse Yourself into a World of Contemplations on Love!

How would you receive a daily inspiration on Love for a lifetime and beyond? As refreshing as a Spring-time breeze, the author has compiled a beautiful book with daily reflections on the many facets of love in our lives. I have used her sections on a daily basis, by lightly contemplating on the current day's theme. Inner silence and focus on her poetic descriptions has often revealed to me, some amazing and incandescent insights! It has a remarkable healing effect that goes deep into our very essence as Soul. The diverse and meticulous nature of the prose spanning a whole year of entries is a tribute to the loving heart this writer has. Thank you Daphne, for bringing the passion and meaning of love's many guises to a warm reality and profound practicality in my life. I highly recommend it as a graceful contemplation to open your heart to love in your life.

I was taught so many good pieces of wisdom from this book.

This book was published in 1992, when I was in my early 20s. I read it from cover to cover repeatedly. It taught me so many good pieces of wisdom. I had forgotten about if for a long time, when I discovered it a few days ago. I love it all over again. Daphne Rose Kingma did a wonderful job of saying alot in a few words. Thank you so much Mrs. Kingma. I will relearn your wisdom from a perspective of being 11 years older. This book is very worth the cost and effort of getting it. I am sure it will teach you new wisdom to.

Focusing Each Day

As a single mother, it is sometimes hard for me to remember to love those who are most important to me, including myself. I use this book to give each day a theme, to remind myself what is important, and to not forget the little things along the way. Daphne Rose Kingma has written a book that is as much a collection of affirmations as it is a daily hug, and who doesn't need a hug each and every day?
