Regardless of your age, level of spirituality, or position in life, it s inevitable you ll face obstacles along life s journey that throw you for a loop. Now, envision a simple, practical,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Solid spiritual principles aren't all that complicated -- our place in this world, and making a success of it, is a simple task if only we love ourselves and accept others. But the trick is communicating this in gentle, supportive words, and with easy but thought-provoking exercises. That's where Mr. Blanchard come in awfully handy. "Triple A's for the Soul" is encouraging, graceful and enthusiastic about the opportunities that lay ahead for the enlightened. I never felt lectured to or force-fed a load of baloney. Blanchard approaches his mission like a supportive friend. Recommended as a helpful addition to any self-help/improvement/recovery program you may be engaged in.
"Cut-to-the-chase" life improvement
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
The biggest problem with most life improvement/spiritual advice books is that they tend to be so ethereal and abstract that the concepts that they attempt to teach often seem impractical or impossible to achieve. I know dozens of people who have copies of Eckart Tolle's The Power of Now, but I don't know a single person, myself included, who has actually been able to finish it! Triple A's for the Soul is the opposite: it is direct, focused, and concise. The lessons included are things that most of us know we should do, but often forget in the midst of our busy lives. It is an absolutely perfect book to pick up if you are feeling a little "stuck." Without overwhelming the reader with endless recitations of the theory of cause and effect, this book recommends actual things you can do TODAY to start changing your life NOW! The tone of the book is never preachy or superior (take note Mr. Tolle!). Mr. Blanchard simply presents wonderfully clear and refreshingly direct concepts that anyone, regardless of religion, can use to make their life a little better every day. This is definitely the kind of book that will find a permanent home on many night-stands... on my night-stand I swapped it out with my dusty, unfinished copy of a Course in Miracles. Visitors may not be as impressed with my erudition, but I don't care because I'm happier and living a better life thanks to this book!
No Woo, Woo Here. Just practical, straight-forward guidance.

This book comes from a point of view that embodies the belief that we are all perfect, whole, and divine - made in the likeness of our creator - regardless of our own beliefs of who that creator is for us as an individual. What I really like about Triple A's for the Soul: Your Pathway To Personal Freedom is it is for everyone. You don't have to be a genius, into meditation, looking for an enlightened life, etc. You just need a boost of practical wisdom to help get over the humps that life presents. Rather than just telling wonderful stories about life and getting past the bumps, the author actually provides solid activities for you to put into practice. So instead of reading and becoming inspired for the moment, you read, get inspired, and do some work to help you maintain the intentions and achieve your goals. Enjoy, it is worth the journey and time.
