Gratitud: Dar gracias por lo que tienes transforamará tu vida

Rate this book
 Una actitud de agradecimiento tiene el poder de convertir las dificultades en oportunidades, los problemas en soluciones, las pérdidas en ganancias, y además expande nuestra visión y nos permite descubrir todo aquello que era invisible para nosotros debido a nuestra actitud limitadora. Este es un buen libro para esos momentos en que necesitamos algo que nos reconforte y nos anime. Y realmente podemos sentirnos muy agradecidos a las personas que lo han escrito. Louise L. Hay destinará el producto de la venta de este libro a su organización benéfica The Hay Foundation, que se esfuerza por mejorar la calidad de vida de numerosas personas, tales como enfermos de sida y mujeres maltratadas. En este bello libro, Louise Hay ha reunido la sabiduría de algunos de los maestros y escritores más queridos y especiales, como Joan Borysenko, Wayne Dyer, Shakti Gawain, Gerald Jampolsky, Susan Jeffers, Bernie Siegel y muchas otras personas que saben sentirse agradecidas y con sus palabras positivas quieren animarnos a hacer lo mismo. La vida es un regalo y, tal como dice la escritora, al Universo le gustan las personas agradecidas.

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.

Termino este libro con el corazón lleno. No encontré grandes teorías ni fórmulas para la felicidad, sino historias y reflexiones que me hicieron detenerme a valorar lo cotidiano.
Esta lectora me recordó que la gratitud no es agradecer solo cuando todo va bien, sino aprender a reconocer los regalos que la vida nos ofrece cada día.
Un libro para leer despacio, subrayar mucho y regresar a él una y otra vez.

Un libro lleno que muchas enseñanzas que nos permiten entender que el dar las gracias no es cuestión de respeto o de educación, yo diría mas bien un estilo de vida, dar gracias es sentir, es abrirse.
