Customer Reviews

Solid, Useful

The title startled me. I read this at a friend's suggestion. It hits a little close to home, but it's good, solid stuff. Good at helping delineate boundaries-especially liked how it pertained at work. While I can't change the other person, I can change my own way of handling things. Off go three copies to friends who I think are up to the challenge.

Thankful

This book is amazing! I have read a lot of self-help books and this is by far the most helpful and informative. Most important, I have been able to implement suggested actions on a daily basis. The concept of how to systematically remove emotional BS from your daily life is simple yet so profound I am amazed that no one else has thought of this before. YOU MUST READ THIS BOOK!!

Great self-help book

This book is terrific! I keep it in the car, for the times I'm waiting for my kids, and can open to any page and read for twenty minutes to learn something. It's a quick, easy read, very helpful and informative book. There have been many times when reading Emotional BS has changed or influenced how I approached a situation. It's helped me be more truthful to myself.

ife REvealing and Life Affirming

In this world of upheaval, one of the casualties of life is human relations. We don't take the time to tackle the very things that impair our ability to live satisfactorily, happily, creatively, freely and fullfilled. Dr. Alasko's book is one of the very finest published today that opens a path for anyone looking to increase the quality of his life. Understanding the life denying patterns of delusion, denial and blame opened the way to insightful understanding in my own life. I find this book incredibly helpful, very practical, hopeful and filled with the tools that I can use in daily living. In appreciation of your wisdom, D.W. Edwards D.D.
