Book Overview

Stardom, thanks to Woody Allen and his film Manhattan, came at an early age...but so did the problems of a broken and dysfunctional family. Yet in a life so out of kilter, Mariel Hemingway summoned the strength and inner resolve that enabled her to find -- and to keep -- her balance.
In Finding My Balance, actress Mariel Hemingway uses the lessons and practices of yoga as a starting point for her own personal reflections...

Well worth reading

Heartwarming insight into the experiences of one cool lady. I admit to following Mariel's (and Margaux') career since before "Lipstick" and I read the book in one session. Very touching, and Mariel really lays a lot of personal pain and joy bare for us to see. A great book for anyone juggling family problems, a difficult adolescence, food demons, and facing adversity. I sure hope the future is kind to Mariel and her family.

Mariel opens her heart

In this touching, informative, truthful story about Mariel's own life is a compelling story I couldn't put down. For any fans of hers, you are going to love this book and won't be ab le to put it down.

Wonderful!

I loved this book! Mariel opens her heart to her readers and lays it all on the line. I identified with her and was able to learn some new methods for handling some areas of my life that parallel hers. This is a wonderful and sincere book! I hope that in the future she writes a book on yoga and that she writes another book where this one left off.

An inspiring & candid memoir of a fine yogini.

Mariel Hemingway has done much good with her yoga work and writing.I love this type of candid writing from such a clear and peaceful soul.It may not be a profound or complex work.But memoirs are not meant to be. She is sharing intimate experiences of her ownand her families lives. This is profound enough.She does know how to share her true life adventures with us with feeling, ideas that are a light on our own paths of life. She keeps on track and there is no fluff in this book.Also recommended; Autobiography of a Yogi,by Paramahansa Yogananda.

Hemingway shares both her passion and her soul

Being a fan of Ms. Hemingway's film work for several years I was pleased to learn that she had written her memoir. Ms. Hemingway's story of survival and discovery was both a thought provoking and moving read. She openly shares the blessing and the curse of her famous family ties and the lessons gained by years of living in emotional upheaval. The yoga metaphor used throughout the book works well and ties each chapter neatly together. All in all an inspiring autobiography by a very talented and strong woman.
