Louise Hay was born to a poor mother who married Hay's violent stepfather. When she was about five, she was raped by a neighbor. At fifteen she dropped out of high school without a diploma, became pregnant, and on her sixteenth birthday gave up her newborn baby girl for adoption.

She moved to Chicago, where she worked in menial jobs, before moving in 1950 to New York. At this point she changed her name and began a career as a fashion model. She was successful at this, working for Bill Blass, Oleg Cassini, and Pauline Trigere.

In 1954, she married Andrew Hay, but after fourteen years of marriage Louise was devastated when Andrew left her for another woman.

Hay said that she found the First Church of Religious Science on 48th Street, which taught the transformative power of thought. Hay revealed that here she studied the metaphysical works of authors like Florence Scovel Shinn and the Religious Science founder Ernest Holmes.

In the early 1970's Hay became a Religious Science practitioner. In this role she led people in spoken affirmations meant to cure their illnesses. She also became popular as a workshop leader.

She studied transcendental meditation with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi at his university in Fairfield, Iowa.

In 1977 or 1978 she found she had cervical cancer, and she concluded that its cause was her unwillingness to let go of resentment over her childhood abuse and rape. She refused medical treatment, and began a regimen of forgiveness, therapy, reflexology, nutrition, and occasional enemas, and claims she rid herself of the cancer. She declared that there is no doctor left who can confirm this story, but swore that it is true.

In 1976 Hay wrote a small pamphlet, which came to be called "Heal Your Body." This pamphlet was enlarged and extended into her book You Can Heal Your Life, which was published in 1984. As of February 2008, it is still on the New York Times best sellers list.

Around the same time she began leading support groups for people living with H.I.V. or AIDS that she called Hay Rides. These grew from a few people in her living room to hundreds in a large hall in West Hollywood. Her work with AIDS patients drew fame and she was invited to appear on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" and "Donahue" in the same week in March, 1988.

You Can Heal Your Life immediately landed on the New York Times Best Sellers List. More than 35 million copies are now in print around the world in more than 30 languages and has been made into a movie.

Louise Hay established Hay House Publishing. It is the primary publisher of books and audio books by Deepak Chopra and Doreen Virtue, as well as many books by Wayne Dyer.

In addition to running her publishing company, Hay runs a charitable organization called Hay Foundation that was established in 1985.

I found this little book in a bookstore called The Higher Self Bookstore while traveling this week in Traverse City, Michigan. I love discovering bookstores on my travels. What drew me to it were the words, "I CAN DO IT." It reminded me of the storybook I read to my children, "The Little Engine That Could," when the little blue engine keeps saying, "I think I can," as she tries to climb the mountain. Words are very powerful, especially the words we tell ourselves. I found this book to be transformative. I began saying these affirmations and I did feel a shift in myself. The author Louise Hay is a pioneer in empowerment and self development. She also offers I CAN DO IT empowerment cards as well. Those four little words, just say them and feel their push!

My aunt sent this book to me because I was sick and was having trouble being patient with healing. It is very simple and has lists of affirmations you can use to change the way you are thinking about things. One day I was in the kitchen worrying about not feeling well and my 4 year old son ran and got the book and handed it to me. So, if he thinks it helps, there must be something to it.

I won this book in a drawing at the gym, and it was a bizarre experience, because I somehow KNEW I needed to read it and KNEW I was going to win it.

It deals with affirmations, in all areas of life, and similar to The Secret, how changing our worldview can chane actual circumstances.

I put it to the test and saw an immediate turnaround.

Este es un librito muy cortito pero poderoso. Hace muchos años descubrí el poder de las afirmaciones y trato de practicarlo la mayor parte del tiempo y no dejan de sorprenderme los maravillosos resultados. Toda acción proviene de un pensamiento, si llegamos a educar nuestra mente para vibran en positivo y atraer lo que si queremos podremos disfrutar de este mágico regalo. Un libro para tener de cabecera y amoldarlo a tus necesidades.

I can do it

Sách giấy 160 trang, mình nghe bản audio book 1h10p.

Một cuốn sách giúp bạn sử dụng nhiều lời khẳng định trong cuộc sống của mình để tác động tiềm thức & thu hút luật hấp dẫn, tự tin, tích cực hơn.

Sách phù hợp với những bạn mới đọc sách, hoặc những bạn đang tiêu cực, tự ti, stress muốn được sống chậm lại & thêm động lực.

Với những bạn đã đọc được kha khá sách rồi thì thấy cuốn này không đủ đô hihi

Titel: "Je kunt het: Hoe je affirmaties kunt gebruiken om gelukkiger te worden" - boekrecensie
Auteur: Louise Hay

- In "Je kunt het: Hoe je affirmaties kunt gebruiken om gelukkiger te worden" neemt auteur Louise Hay lezers mee op een reis naar zelfontdekking en innerlijke zelf-groei. Het boek is een inspirerende gids die de kracht van affirmaties reflecteert en hoe ze ons leven kunnen transformeren. Met haar jarenlange evaring als spiritueel leraar en auteur, biedt mevr.Hay praktische tips en inzichten om positieve veranderingen in ons leven te leven te brengen . Door haar eigen spirituele weerkaatsingen in het leven komt ze haar zelf soms tegen en deelt ze nuttige informatie hoe je als eigen individu gelukkig kan zijn .

-Een van de waardevolste aspecten vn dit boek is de nadruk op de kracht van onze gedachten en de rol die ze spelen bij het vormgeven van onze realiteit. Hay legt uit hoe onze overtuigingen en gedachten patronen invloed hebben op alle aspecten van ons leven, inclusief ons geluk en welzijn. Ze introduceert affirmaties als een krachtig instrument om negatieve gedachten te vervangen door positieve en ondersteunende gedachten. Met daarbij nadruk heeft de auteur ook aantal factoren aangebracht wat geluk bij elk individu kan van afhangen . Hay leert ons hoe we onze affirmaties kunnen formuleren en hoe we ze effectief kunnen gebruiken en dat vond ik prachtig . Ze benadrukt het belang van herhaling en consistentie bij het versterken van positieve overtuigingen. Ze geeft de lezers de tools om zelf aan het werk te gaan, en jezelf beter af te lezen .

Ik som enkele aspecten, waarrond ze heeft gewerkt .
- zelf acceptatie
- zelfliefde
- creativiteit
Bij deze 3 aspecten heeft Louise hay een uitgebreid " samenvatting "en eigen reflectie over geschreven .
Ze somt enkele sterke motieven wat wij als mens kunnen doen om deze "vaardigheid" onder controle te krijgen en vanwaar het komt . Veel mensen staan niet centraal dat deze vaardigheden ons maken tot wie we zijn vandaag . Dit wilt dat ook zeggen dat we deze "affirmaties" kunnen trainen en onder controle krijgen om ons welzijn en geluk te BOOSTEN . En dit juist wat "Lousie hay " zo fantastisch heeft gedaan.


//Mijn mening over dit boek //.
Dit boek heeft me op een dergelijke zelf-avontuur gebracht . Het heeft mij dieper naar mijzelf getrokken en aangeleerd wat affirmaties zijn . Dit boek sprak me al direct aan, omdat ik veel bezig ben met welzijn van mijn eigen lichaam . Ik hou van het verdiepen in boeken waar ik mentale energie kan van leren en dit ook onder controle kan krijgen . "Hay" heeft me geleerd dat moeilijk ook gaat en dat het gewoon een vorm is van aanpassen en zelf aan te leren . Ik bedank "Louise hay " voor dit prachtig boek uit te brengen , en raad iedereen aan om dit ook te lezen " voor de mensen die hun zelf beter willen aflezen" .
Dank

A book about self-affirmations. A way to have a better mindset & to shun negativity away.

It can be a bit tedious to read at first but after I finished reading it, i realized that it did give me some beneficial affirmations and insights that i would like to use in real life like believing that each of us is creative on their own way & that we have to establish our creativity and develop self-confidence to unleash our creativity instead of leashing it with fear.

It even told us to do what we truly want to do instead of solely "having an intention" to do it but not doing it.

It ppromotes consistent positive thinking which can also feel wrong because it kinds of promotes toxic positivity & unauthenticity of human emotions. Sometimes we have to discover the dark in order to see the light and appreciate it genuinely. So, i can't agree with all of the affirmations & I'm pretty sure that others won't either.

Some of my favourite excerpts from the book:


• I love myself exactly as I am, I no longer want to be perfect just to love myself.

• Dwelling on lack creates more lack. Thinking of poverty brings more poverty, thinking of gratitude, brings abundance.

Thank you.

I can't guarantee that this stuff works but I can't see why it wouldn't. The advice inside here is sound and I'd say this book is a good overview of what various other spiritual-type books would tell you, e.g. think positively; if you want something, think as if you already have it and not about wanting it; have an attitude of gratitude; don't think you'll 'never' do or get something you want; give yourself love, especially the bits of you you don't like, and don't look for the love you need in others before you can give it to yourself. That kind of thing. It all makes sense. I do think this book is quite expensive for what it is - recycled knowledge - but it does have some really good examples of positive affirmations for people looking to make their own. I really liked "that may be true for other people but it isn't true for me". You can make your own affirmations - it's probably better that way - but there are some good ones here for inspiration.

3 positive stars!

I am not a fan of self help books, but I got this one for my 18th birthday, so I gave it a try.
And I must admit, it was much more inspirational than I thought it could ever be.
I don't like when people are telling me how to live my life. Luckily this is not one of those cases.
'I Can Do It' represent a way how to make your life better, if you want to, by using positive thoughts.
After I read it, I realized some things, which I already knew, but never really thought about them.

Um livro pequeno e extremamente fácil de ler que nos mostra a força dos pensamentos positivos e o quanto estes podem provocar alterações nas nossas vidas. Infelizmente já li outro livro que abordava o mesmo tema e tal acabou por afectar esta leitura, daí as 3 estrelas (like it) da minha parte. Certamente que teria apreciado mais os seus ensinamentos se o tema me fosse completamente novo.

En general he huido de este tipo de literatura. Decidí darle una oportunidad ya que era cortito, y bueno, tampoco me iba a hacer daño. Ha habido cosas que ciertamente me han ayudado o mas bien necesitaba que me dijeran.
