I greatly appreciate Emanuel Dagher. He is a highly evolved being with a “deep compassion and love for humanity”.
As a small child, Emanuel and his mother lived in a convent for seven years during the Lebanese Civil War.
He and his family emigrated to the USA from Lebanon when he was 11.
He tells us “life is in feeling and appreciating the Now moment, not our To-Do List”. Our purpose in life and the meaning of life is to be happy.
At the beginning of the book Emanuel provides us with three sacred mantras in Sanskrit, which he tells us have given him amazing results when he has worked with them.
We can find videos on YouTube providing us with their correct pronunciation, which is important.
Om gum Ganapataye Namaha This clears obstacles to a happy, healthy, prosperous life.
Om shreem maha l’akshmye namaha. This attracts prosperity in all areas of life.
Om brzee namaha. This attracts good fortune and abundance.
Each mantra should be said 108 times, using a mala mantra necklace with 108 beads to help you keep count. I found one in a sort of alternative shop a few years ago.
He explains the significance of the number 108.
Emanuel describes his own process from lacking abundance to achieving it.
He tells us that money’s only purpose is to bless all those it meets. We should ask money what we can do for it and not just what it can do for us.
“Money is the physical embodiment of the energies of giving and receiving: the embodiment of circulation.”
One way to change the energy of lack is to be of service to others.
We should remember that receiving is just as important as giving.
Emanuel found that one of the most powerful ingredients that prosperous people had in common was generosity.
He gives the examples of Richard Branson and Oprah Winfrey.
Generosity is “a key component to creating a happy, fulfilling, and abundant life”.
It is useful for us to begin to carry cash in our pockets. It should be an amount that’s slightly uncomfortable for us to carry around.
There are sections on the importance of rest, believing in yourself, investing in your desires, aligning your business with your personal beliefs and creating balance.
We need to make time for ourselves every day, including making time to play. (I do that.)
We should be on time for appointments and show up organized. We should also simplify and declutter our life, including letting go of activities which no longer interest us.
Emanuel gives us a chapter on building a support network and one on practising gratitude and kindness.
He encourages us to “say our morning gratitudes” and even to do a gratitude dance.
Smiling releases “feel good” chemicals in the brain that activate a sense of well-being and joy.
It has been proven that both smiling and seeing smiling faces actually makes us happier.
We re given a 28-day prosperity plan. This includes saying the prosperity mantras mentioned previously.
Anytime Emanuel is dealing with money, he does the quick 2-step Money-Relationship Healing Process. For example, he holds the receipt of a purchase over his chest and repeats “Feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, bless those you come in contact with, and return to me manyfold.”
This allows him to remember that when he allows money to circulate in and out of his life, he is in the flow and is opened up to many more blessings.
The Prosperity Plan includes many valuable suggestions which help to increase one’s prosperity.
Emanuel advises us to share things on social media that reflect who we are and also inspire others.
This is an inspiring book which I can highly recommend that you purchase.

What a great book! I thought I was getting just a business book when I got this, but it's way more than that. After reading it, I have shifted my way of seeing the prosperity in my life, especially my finances. Within 2 weeks of reading this book, I sold my house that was on the market for over 1 1/2 years, and oh by the way it was about to go into foreclosure, because I couldn't pay for 2 mortgages anymore. We are closing in 1 week and I can now use the money from the house to take care of my family without worrying. I do believe that the teachings in this book helped turn things around for me quickly. Highly recommended.

This book is an inspiration! It has changed the way I feel and experience prosperity in my life. Super easy to read and follow with a fun and super effective 28 day prosperity that's fun and easy to follow. Highly recommended.

I received this book from Good Reads.
Fast read, holds one's interest. I have been reading "self help" books for over 30 years and admit that they DO help keep myself centered and on track.
Particularly, this book is well organized, step by step process. I highly recommend.

Emmanuel writings are understandable, simple yet rich of knowledges inside. I love the way he shares about prosperity in the essence, from higher perspective based on his own experiences and his touching with his clients, in which others may see it only from the "outside".
Recommended, especially for those who have struggle with money, abundant life & happiness, also wish to be healed. This book will guide you to see from higher perspective with simple guidances to put in daily basis.

This book emphasizes that prosperity is much more than just money. It is an attitude towards life. The book is organized and has many good insights. The outline of the book makes it sound easy breezy, as in follow the instructions. Yes, that part is easy breezy. However, the commitment to the ideas in this book also entail work. You have to work on these ideas to make them stick.

Goodreads win. Will review once received.
This was an inspirational read. It was sweet and had some interesting things written in this book. It was a quick read with some good advice. I will admit I have never been a big fan of self help books, but this one was decent. The book was fun and easy to follow along with.

An amazing upbringing the author lived through to bring him to a place of service. He exudes magic. An easy read with simple, practical, and inspiring methods to creating prosperity and living an abundant life. The mantras and morning gratitude exercises will be a new ritual in my life.

Fresh Take on Prosperity with Cross-Generational Appeal
I have read many prosperity books and purchased several programs from various authors and teachers over the years. At this point in my life, I think I have a pretty good grasp of prosperity principles and feel fairly confident in my knowledge of how to transform different areas of my life that I’d like to improve. I feel pretty prosperous!
However, every once in a while, a book will call to me for some reason, and this is one of those books. Reading it works on several levels, but basically, what I really enjoy about it is the combination of a simple, sound prosperity program, written in easily understandable English (non-technical, free of jargon, very well edited and formatted) and with words that are infused with a delightful, supportive energy that is palpable throughout the whole book. Just reading the words, one can feel the author’s love and positive intentions towards the reader. I hope this isn’t too “woo-woo” for you, but read it, and I think you’ll know what I mean! There is a very powerful energy contained within the pages of Easy Breezy Prosperity.
The book covers five foundations to create a life of prosperity:
(1) Finding Happiness
(2) Embracing Circulation
(3) Investing in Yourself and Creating Balance
(4) Building a Support Network
(5) Practicing Gratitude and Kindness
Each of these foundations is covered in its own chapter, with simple, well-explained exercises at the end that help you build up your own strong foundation in the five areas. Personal stories skillfully woven throughout the book provide extra support to the efficacy of the author's methods.
Following the Five Foundations is a 28-day program to, in the author’s own words “get the ball rolling” and turn the exercises into natural habits. You are encouraged to follow the 28-day program at your own pace, following your own instincts.
Although I enjoy and appreciate many of the older prosperity classics (Think and Grow Rich, etc.), because they were written in another era, the energy and the stodgy, outdated language sometimes doesn't feel quite right for NOW. And in general, the focus of these older titles tended to be on monetary success and business achievements. Easy Breezy Prosperity is about increasing prosperity in all facets of life, and gives many great examples and techniques to bring you to this “better space” for yourself. There is even solid advice on how to use Social Media to enhance your life, which is something fairly new to this genre.
With the publication of Easy Breezy Prosperity, I now have a wonderfully up-to-date high energy book that I can share with my both my nieces and nephews in their twenties, as well as with older people. When I say older, I mean…I am literally going to recommend this book to friends I have that are in their 60s, 70s and 80s! Sometimes I hear people in these older generations (and younger!) get stuck on everything “having to be a lot of work and effort in order to succeed”…and now, I can save my breath…I can just hand them this book! Beautiful! I have just saved myself time, which for me, is one area of prosperity I'm increasing.

Emmanuel is a gift. His explanations, suggestions and concepts are clear, deeply profound and wise. I so appreciate his attitude and perspective, which seems so different than most Law of Attraction/Abundance authors and “gurus”. Emmanuel does not spend hours telling you to change the way you think over and over (without any workable way to do that), interspersed with admonishment blaming you for creating the situation you’re in. Instead Emmanuel gives simple explanations on how we got to a place where we’re not happy and how to change it. He provides straight forward practices for changing your life and creating joy and prosperity.
I’m removing two stars for the audio version because the narrator was a horrible pick for this book. I decided to get the hardcover book and will provide a five star review on that. But this narrator sounded like he would be perfectly suited to reading action thrillers or drama. He was just completely unsuited to a book of this type. His style of reading actually detracted from Emmanuel’s words for me. The dissonance between the words and energy of the book and the narrator’s voice and intonation was distracting and almost grating. It was a very unfortunate choice.

Emmanuel shares his insights about prosperity with loving wisdom and relatable stories about himself and clients that show the power of the prosperity processes he suggests. This is a book for thos who actually want to increase their prosperity, rather than just read about. Like all great coaches, he provides action steps as well as fascinating perspectives on limiting beliefs held by many of us. Bravo and bless you, Emmanuel!

Really good book about appreciating prosperity in all its forms, as well as eliminating unhealthy thoughts toward money. The author starts with his time spent in an abbey with his mother surviving warn-torn Lebanon, and then adjusting to being a refugee in the mid-west, and to his current prosperity. It is a book that cultivates gratitude toward the many blessings we have, of which money is just one.

So interactive and practical too.

This book is filled with insights that I have never heard about when it comes to creating greater prosperity in one's life. My favorite chapter is titled "The Game Changer' and it offers a powerful new perspective on what money is, its purpose, and how we can shift our relationship with it so that we can experience more of it in our lives. I love how generous Emmanuel is with everything he offers to the reader in this book, and I have already started the 28 Day Prosperity Plan that is created for the reader to begin generating greater prosperity right away. 5 stars!

I received this book as a First Read. It's a quick read and offers good advice but doesn't really offer anything new in the self-improvement book genre. It offers the same tips that most books in this category do - figure out what makes you happy and do it. be grateful for what you have, slow down and enjoy the present moment, sleep more, smile more, be kinder, declutter, breathe, take time for yourself, relax, have fun, give, be generous, surround yourself would good people, etc.

I've loved the energy calls I've heard from Emmanuel Dagher so I was predisposed to like this book. I like the conversational tone and the easy exercises at the end of each chapter. I'm still working up to doing the 30 day plan at the end of the book but that's on me, not the book. He's made it very simple to work on a gratitude mindset. Definitely one of the better books of this genre.

I've read a lot of self-help and New Agey books, but even still, I wondered if this guy is actually sincere. By the end of the book, I decided he probably is. A lot of these techniques you can find in other books, but some of the approaches are new. It's a quick read.

I've read better book that offer similar ideas.

Loved it. So many insights I took notes and added to my own journal.

I had a great time with this book. It approaches prosperity as a spiritual practice. Refreshing.

A star for the life story, and the author seems like a great guy, but this book just wasn't my style. It tried to cover too much - from "think and grown rich, to "the secret," to chanting, to masterminds, to the absolute basics (ie. shower, brush teeth, eat healthy, smile) - it was all over the place.
