By Christiane Beerlandt - The Key to Self-liberation: 1000 Diseases and Their Psychological Origins (8)

I bought this book on a friends recommendation and I have to say that I was very impressed at first glance with the book. Then after continuing with my reading I noticed how the author said more or less the same thing to all the health conditions. Also the translation of this book is really poor which makes it difficult to understand. My friend, the who made the recommendation, read it in the original language and I bet this book reads better in the original language. I also agree with another review that the author's take on 'fat/obesity' is very superficial and she does not understand the issues of being fat to a deep level.There are other conditions on the book that feels lacking in depth as well. The way the book was translated leaves you with a feeling the publisher used google translator then copied and pasted. I felt really disappointed with the purchase and feel that I won't be using the book much.

If you are familiar with Louise Hay's work then this is way way way above that, detailed and comprehensive. Translated from the Dutch into many languages, the English translation is not necessarily the best as it has lost some of its poetry but none of its meaning. In my years of using it Christiane has never failed to give a new dimension to a health issue and suggested thoughts to consider, contemplate and get better. It feels like listening to a good friend giving sensible and to the point guidance, no dodging the issue.

This book is very informative and always accurate when you read the disease and psychological aspect.For me it is a reference book as opposed to a book i would read from cover to cover, as It can feel a bit heavy goingat the beginning but it never ceases to amaze me with it's accuracy.

......then this book is it. If you can get past the odd way of referencing, then this book is very good. The only two issues that I feel are not dealt with adequately are obesity and sex. These two issues I feel the author herself hasn't really grasped and so they are limp and not full bodied like the rest of the symptom descriptions.But a joy to read and a book certainly to delve into and work from time and again.

Used like a bible, fantastic , great insight.

This is an extraordinary book - I will be using it for the rest of my life - many is the time that I literally thank the author internally for writing it.

FULL ON BOOK! Watch out!

A great book!
