Recenzii
"Capacchione doesn't just preach the importance of visualizing goals to see them come true, something we've all heard before. … Her book tells you to get out the scissors and glue and magazine pictures to create collages of the life you want. That becomes the vision, and you will look at it each morning and night."
—Cleveland Plain Dealer
"[Capacchione] not only helps to bring out the best—but helps to discover that there is a best that is worth bringing out."
—Norman Cousins, author of Anatomy of an Illness
"Capacchione's workshop was a powerful tool on my healing jouney. She shares her insights and gives you the opportunity to heal your relationship with your inner child. Go for it!"
—Louise Hay, author of You Can Heal Your Life
