The Essential Wayne Dyer Collection

by Wayne W. Dyer

For decades, #1 New York Times best-selling author Wayne Dyer has been inspiring people to change their lives. Now three of his most fascinating books are collected in this single volume:

The Power of Intention details Wayne’s research on intention as a force in the universe that allows the act of creation to take place. He explains that it is not something we do, but rather an energy we’re a part of. This is the first book to look at intention as a field of energy that we can access to begin co-creating our lives.  

Inspiration dissects feelings of emptiness, the idea that there must be something more, and trying to determine the meaning of life . . . all evidence of a yearning to reconnect with our soul space. This book explains how we’ve chosen to enter this world of particles and form, and each chapter is filled with specifics for living an inspired life. From a very personal viewpoint, Wayne offers a blueprint through the world of Spirit to inspiration, our ultimate calling.

Excuses Begone! reveals how to change the self-defeating thinking patterns that have prevented us from living at the highest levels of success, happiness, and health. Wayne presents many of the conscious and subconscious crutches most of us employ, along with ways to cast them aside once and for all. The old, habituated ways of thinking will melt away as the absurdity of hanging on to them is exposed, and we ultimately come to realize that there are no excuses worth defending—ever.
The Essential Wayne Dyer Collection is a must-read for those wanting to explore the power and potential of the human mind, as well as anyone who is finally ready to live the best life possible!

About the author

Wayne Walter Dyer was an American self-help author and a motivational speaker. Dyer earned a Bachelor’s degree in History and Philosophy, a Master’s degree in Psychology and an Ed.D. in Guidance and Counseling at Wayne State University in 1970. Early in his career, he worked as a high school guidance counselor, and went on to run a successful private therapy practice. He became a popular professor of counselor education at St. John's University, where he was approached by a literary agent to put his ideas into book form. The result was his first book, Your Erroneous Zones (1976), one of the best-selling books of all time, with an estimated 100 million copies sold. This launched Dyer's career as a motivational speaker and self-help author, during which he published 20 more best-selling books and produced a number of popular specials for PBS. Influenced by thinkers such as Abraham H. Maslow and Albert Ellis, Dyer's early work focused on psychological themes such as motivation, self actualization and assertiveness. By the 1990s, the focus of his work had shifted to spirituality. Inspired by Swami Muktananda and New Thought, he promoted themes such as the "power of intention," collaborated with alternative medicine advocate Deepak Chopra on a number of projects, and was a frequent guest on the Oprah Winfrey Show.

Wayne Dyer is full of wisdom. I've read self help books which are either waffly or holier than thou. But Wayne writes with a pragmatic and calming voice. The collection contains 3 books which I regularly dip in and out of to centre me.

This is the kind of book I can read again and again to contemplate his messages and apply lessons in my daily situations. There were so many wonderful quotations but overall three main themes hit me this time.

~ Observation: Power of seeing and feeling with my whole body without interpretation or explanation. Sometimes, just being there and present is more than enough. Lately, my favorite way of resting is just lying down and focusing on my breathings in and out. Random thoughts come in then leave, but my focus is more into my breathing. After all, it is my breath that is with me from the beginning until the end.

~ Freedom: Free to speak and free to think; however whenever I think of freedom, I think of a road trip in my car. I just came back from a grand adventure, adding over 2000 miles to my vehicle to Ohio, Wisconsin, Indiana and Illinois. This feeling on the road (when not in traffic) accompanied by clear sky and cotton candy clouds is epitome of freedom. Sometimes, we listen to the Harry Potter books; other times, we sing along to praise music. Last night, I saw my youngest sleeping deep holding my hand, as the full moon guided our path… Yes I was in peace and full of happiness. Those precious moments, I crave for them and I live for them. We are born with wings and learn to use them to fly. In my case, my current wing is Honda CRV and later it will be a white Tesla~

~ Thoughts: Beautiful thoughts build a beautiful soul. Change my thoughts to change my life. When I am irritated with someone or situation, recognize that I am in between desire and allowing. Permit the paradox of wanting the irritant to vanish and allowing it to be what it is. Remember that Jesus is everywhere in His disguise, and I am never alone. I surround myself with His spirit and see myself the way He sees me, as his precious child or beautiful bride.

"The Essential Wayne Dyer Collection" holds a special place in my heart as it became a guiding light on my personal journey.

Wayne fue un magnifico ser humano y como escritor fue genial. Su afán fue la búsqueda del conocimiento y compartirlo con sus semejantes, eso lo hizo más grande como persona. Realmente, yo recomiendo la lectura de cualquiera y de todos sus libros. Cada uno de ellos tiene gran valor espiritual, emocional, y sabiduría cargada de consejos mesurados con los cuales se puede lograr una excelente calidad de vida.

Que lo diga yo que, lo conocí en una de sus charlas en la Universidad de St. John´s en NY.

I came across Wayne Dyer by chance, via the movie The Shift. I loved it! I did further research, etc..., and ended up subscribing to his Hay House newsletter. I had access to Waynes videos, podcasts and free books and have read meanwhile his essential titles. I find Dr. Dyer and his work honest, uplifting and inspiring.
