Editorial Reviews: Doing something for 40 days can make or break a habit.There is something sacred and profound about the number 40. Throughout history, in ancient texts and the Bible, it is revered as the length of time required for enacting lasting change. This interactive journal helps readers dedicate a manageable but inspired time and space for conscious growth. It begins with identifying and clarifying your intention for the excursion. What do you want to accomplish or discover? No matter what your intention, from ending a stagnant relationship to changing careers or finding your true life's calling, the 40 days will act as a vital container as you go about your normal life with more awareness and commitment. Each day includes simple-but-insightful activities and stories, as wells as thoughtful journaling prompts focused on specific topics to help you along your journey. The blank journaling pages are designed to record the physical part of this spiritual journey. Once the 40 days are complete you can reenter the world and make the most of what you've discovered during this special period. Segalove's accessible step-by-step framework provides an uplifting yet doable odyssey, one that will enliven the way readers connect with themselves, with others, and the rest of their lives. No matter what the challenge, this book delivers a place and a way to return to day after day.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Great gift for self and friend Comment: I purchased this book as a gift for a friend whose birthday is just a few days after my own. I bought one for myself as well, and we agreed work on it at the same time in order to inspire each other to stick to it. It's a great idea, and a nice gift for those who don't normally journal. (I do, but she doesn't.) The process of completing the book gave us something to talk about. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Stuff! Comment: I have been doing this guided journal for a little over 20 days and I love it. It has really helped me to get down with who I really am. Often, we don't have time to sit down and think about ourselves and what means most to us. This helps tremendously. I would reccommend it for anyone who feels they have something to work on in life. Customer Rating: Summary: Wonderful Journal for Self-Discovery Comment: I had this book for three years and had not used it. While in India for one month, I decided to give the book a try. It was the best journal to write in at the best time possible. It helped to change my life. I absolutely love it! The questions are thought provoking and there are a few things that you might not want to write about. You will find some of the questions a little tough to answer, but the insight you will gain from writing about "scary" topics is amazing. As you complete the journal you will find out so much about yourself and what is really important to you. Customer Rating: Summary: Great journaling book Comment: This book came to me at the best time. I love it! Segalove writes with experience, guiding you through many realizations and breakthroughs,nudging you along. I very much recommend it. Customer Rating: Summary: Explore your true self and intuition when stuck in a rut. Comment: I never liked journaling and found no use for it, except feeling stupid and having nothing that seemed significant to write about. THIS BOOK turns THE NON-JOURNALER INTO A WRITER by helping you work through your feelings with prompts and ideas that really make you think. After just 8 days into the 40 I made some major realizations and had to stop myself from rushing through it. But the main idea of the book is to help you to slow down and listen to yourself.
