Non-Fiction/Self Help Review

What's It Like Being You?: Living Life as Your True Self!
by John-Roger
ISBN-10: 1893020258
Review by Heather Froeschl

Are you who you are supposed to be? A mother, employee, dedicated worker, community volunteer? Or are you who you truly are? Does your soul soar free; are you happy? Or is it stuck inside under all of the costumes of those people you think you need to be? Can you find yourself in there and come to know your true self?

With the gentle guidance of John-Roger, D.S.S. and Paul Kaye,D.S.S., you certainly can. In "What's it Like Being You?" you will come to learn the difference between being you and being your true self. Read the text that addresses the topics of who you are, how many yous there are, and the sea of gratitude and follow the practices that help you focus on the silence, meditation, and exercising your soul. Read about the four spiritual laws of Acceptance, Cooperation, Understanding and Enthusiasm. Then go back through and read the quotes by John-Roger as a way to help attune to your own spirit.

Through the book you will not find strict rules or mantras to follow, but you will find a quiet guidance that can help you to understand yourself better. You will also find additional guidance in the included CD, a guided meditation that reiterates what is in the book. It will become a cherished tool and is the perfect companion to the text.

Readers will delight in the joy they find, through the pages, in themselves and their lives. It is there, you just have to accept it. Everyone is different but I would imagine that everyone who reads "What's it Like Being You?" will come away having learned something quite valuable.
