    Great book and very insightful. I definitely learned a good deal about how our emotions work. I always thought our emotions were all independent of each other. That is not the case, emotions are layered. After reading the book I took time to evaluate how I respond to different emotional situations and the info the book gives is spot on. If you want to become more mindful and truly live and be YOU (Your Authentic Self) this is the perfect read! I have also used it to take a step back and evaluate the relationships in my life to try to better them. So much valuable info that can change your life.I have found it so helpful I am going to go back and read it again.

    Finally, a refreshing, readable, psychological book with helpful insights into personal and family behaviors. Dr. Van S tells many relevant stories and summaries that allow the reader to think about their own life and family influences and how to cope or seek help. This book is a treasure without the crazy, psychological jargon that is difficult to understand by the average person. Multiple copies were purchased for family members and has provided excellent, thoughtful discussions among us. Thank you and kudos to Dr. Van S! Linda and Shelley

    Dr VS and the thoughts and stories he puts forth in this book saved my life. I saw myself in so many of the scenarios that in almost all of them, I thought - oh surely he's talking about me! Once we're able to learn that we are who we are for so many reasons much deeper and often more elusive than the clearly obvious.. only then can we begin to heal and grow. Are we ultimately responsible for our actions and thoughts and how our lives play out? Yes. But sometimes it takes a lot of thought provoking, and sometimes painful self-honesty and reflection to see that our past relationships move us to where we are are, and are just as significant and powerful. This doc knows what he's talking about. DrVS - I owe you my life. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

    Reading Dr. Van Schoyck’s book has helped me better understand how my past influences my decisions, and how I can listen to my Authentic Self. I think everyone can benefit from reading this and I’m seriously considering gifting it to a few family members and close friends. Dr. Van Schoyck uses specific examples from patients he has helped (anonymously) and specific examples from his own personal life to illustrate and drive home the concepts he discusses.
