Customer Reviews

Being the Best You!

I love how each daily reading helps me to focus on the positive within me. It has helped me become more confident in the person that I am becoming. Anyone who's looking to begin or improve on their journey of self discovery, self love, and learning how to be more comfortable with who they really are and who they are meant to be. Enjoy your journey!!

Everything I hoped for!!

Absolutely everything you would hope for and know about a Iyanla Vanzant. A true inspiration and great devotional to add to morning meditation.

Uplifting

I love this book, I look forward to my morning devotion and cup of tea. I've ordered quite a few just to have whenever I'm lead to I bless someone with this awesome book of wisdom.

"Until Today'' has become my favorite morning devotional

"Until Today" has been a daily inspiration for me and the substance abuse group I facilitate. Each day has the perfect topic for that day and blesses many in the group. Topic is always perfect. Anyone needing encouraging words to start their day would benefit from reading these daily affirmations

Inspirational, validating, & affirming!

This gem of a book is one of Vanzant's best works yet! The book is broken down into twelve sections that each deal with a spiritual principal. (Example: January deals with Life, July deals with Understanding, September with Trust, etc.) The readings for each day are truly inspirational, validating, and affirming for all of God's children! At the end of the reading is an affirmation or thought/Meditation that you can focus on throughout the day!! (I usually write about it in my own personal spiritual journal, once in the morning and once at night....to see how I fared!)If you are interested in growing as a person and a spiritual being, then this is the book for you! An excellent read that I have and will continue to recommend.

Speaks Directly To You

Vanzant's latest book is in a day-to-day devotional format. Having devoured everything else she has written, I didn't hesitate to pick this up. Well, get ready to be smacked hard upside your head every single day.The author seems to have the view of a seer, and every single piece is directly related to what's happening in life at exactly that moment. Each devotion ends with the phrase, "Until today..." and a statement like "you may have been feeling as if you were about to break down. Just for today, call forth the strength, courage, wisdom, insight, power and love of the spirit of life. Ask that you be guided through the next minute, hour or day to a place of peace." (January 31)Each month has a focus - life, love, awareness, acknowledgment, acceptance forgiveness, etc. Each day's reading focuses on internal personal and spiritual growth, self-acceptance, change and producing peace in your life.It is an excellent book for those who have thrown out all the other daily devotional books including those for "Women Who Do Too Much." I expect to wear the pages of this book out over the next years.

Until Today! I didn't know how much I needed this book!

Iyanla did it again! I don't even get out of bed in the morning without saying my daily affirmations and reading today's excerpt from Until Today!: Daily Dovotions for Spiritual Growth and Peace of Mind. I love this book, it help put into perspective a multitude of negative thinking and speaking and teaches us how to re-language ourselves so that we can manifest in our lives all the joy, abundance, happiness that we desire. Everything we need or want we already have within, we just need to tap into our inner abundance. Thanks to Iyanla, and her inspirational books, I have tapped into my inner light and let it shine for all to see.I would recommend this book to everyone.

Until Today, I forgot a lot of this wisdom!

A book to shine "light upon our memory and our soul". Each day a reminder of "Who You Are and What You Need To Remember". This lattest success from Ilyanla is; positive, focused, spiritual, wise, abundant with wisdom and keys to open our soul. I truly adore the writing that come from Iyanla's soul. Keep writing to inspire our soul!

Healing the mind, body and soul!

This was so moving for me. I am just recently out of a bad relationship, one of many. A friend shared with me a copy of this book before I bought it myself. Iyanla touches on the deepest parts of my heart, and shows me that I am not alone. Coming from a not so good childhood...and thinking as I grew up that men were always going to hurt me in the end, therefore never allowing myself to honestly open up and trust one, I have just been going through the motions of a relationship for years. Never understanding why it is that I just cant seem to find "happiness". And she, very vividly, explains that we all have a past but we can't allow it to ruin our future! And only now in retrospect, with the aid of this book showing me and allowing me to really understand, can I see that I was doing just that. If you are not sure about where to go for help, or unsure of how you can get beyond your "skeletons in the closet", like many of us, than this is definitely for you! She is helping me to find myself all over again from the inside out....Healing the mind, body and soul.
