Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In There's a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem, bestselling author Wayne W. Dyer offers compelling testimony on the power of love, harmony, and service. When confronted with a problem, be it ill health, financial worries, or relationship difficulties, we often depend on intellect to solve it. But in this inspiring book, Dyer shows us that there is an omnipotent spiritual force at our fingertips that contains the solution to our problems. Drawing from the various spiritual traditions, especially from the prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi, Dyer helps us unplug from the material world and awaken to the divine within.

The first part of the book provides the essential foundation for spiritual problem solving, drawing from the wisdom of Patanjali, a Yogi mystic; the second half focuses on the legacy of Saint Francis. Dyer offers specific practical applications for applying the teachings of these wise men to everyday problems, including affirmations, writing exercises, and guided meditations.

Review:

"These aren't breathtakingly original suggestions, but Dyer, returning again and again to the words of St. Francis, presents such familiar lessons in a fresh and loving way." Publishers Weekly

Review:

"[E]ngaging and easily lends itself to rereading. An enticing and challenging work." Library Journal

This book changed my life.

I live with a perpetual arguer, as well as 3 teenage boys. One of the most insightful messages in this book is simply this. Arguers want to win. Period. If you don't feel like arguing - just let them win and the argument will cease.

I perform this magic trick on my husband all the time, restoring peace to my beautiful home.

Another insightful message in this book is that you can protect yourself from mean, resentful, angry people. Just envision a sacred space of about 8 inches from your body. As you are becoming attacked imagine yourself protecting that spot. make a choice to keep them away from your sacred area and CHOOSE not to argue or get angry back.

These small tips and others have reduced my anxiety and restored my health and increased my joy!
