Dissolve The Problem: by Shifting Physical Reality
Why solve a problem when you can dissolve it? In Dissolve The Problem, bestselling author and spiritual explorer Richard Dotts tackles one of the most pertinent aspects of everyday living—how to deal with the myriad of “problems” that we face in our daily lives. Be it financial, health, relationship, family or career problems, Richard puts forth the groundbreaking premise that some problems are so persistent in our lives precisely because we have attempted to “solve” and analyze them for so long. In the process, we have inevitably come to identify ourselves as inseparable from these various issues in our life. In his trademark style that has endeared him to readers worldwide, Richard masterfully weaves in spiritual principles to explain why our conventional ways of “solving” a problem have actually led to more disappointments than successes. He shows us why anytime we attempt to solve a problem by working through it or finding out the reasons for it, we unknowingly perpetuate its existence in our everyday reality. As Richard puts it, “If all your hard work could have led to a solution, you would have found it already. Perhaps there is a better way.” Richard explains that the only permanent way is to dissolve a problem completely using spiritual means. Dissolving a problem means letting it go so completely from your life that the original conditions which created the problem cannot even exist. By tapping into these powerful Universal Laws that have always been available to us, we can instantly shift into a realm where the initial problem does not even exist. When there are no problems, then there is no need for physical solutions in the first place.When dissolving longstanding problems in our lives, Richard teaches that it does not matter what the specifics of your problems are. It does not matter whether you are faced with financial, health or relationship concerns. Neither does it matter how long you’ve had these problems for. The Universe perceives none of the physical limitations of time and space that are apparent to you. The Universe is never interested in the specifics of your problem. Therefore, these steps to dissolve a problem apply equally to all issues.In this new book, Richard teaches a powerful three-step process that allows anyone to dissolve the longstanding problems in their lives. This three-step process is so different from other outward-oriented techniques because it is not about positive thinking, denial, acting “as if,” or analyzing the problem in great detail. Instead, the dissolving process sidesteps all this and directly focuses on our primary roles as powerful creators and focusers of Universal energy. When you understand your role as a director of Universal energy, you will instantly be able to redirect these creative energies from the undesired to the desired aspects of your life. What happens then, is a spontaneous dissolving of the various issues in your life without your active intervention.

The message and methods of this book struck a chord with me. I'll be trying in my own life what it suggests. Learn to let go of your problems and so much more. I felt like I was learning Universal secrets. I won't forget the simple three-step process of soften, shift, and stay.
I did a lot of highlighting and here's just one example:
"If you only take one message away from this book, let it be this: There is no separation between your physical and spiritual worlds. You are living simultaneously in both worlds at once. Your success as a creative and deliberate manifestor depends on how much influence you have over your spiritual instead of your physical dimension."

4.5 stars. A pretty interesting take on manifestation. The author is suggesting that we should first soften our insistence that an issue is a problem, shift our focus to our desired reality and stay in that desired reality. Once we shift and stay in our desired reality, things will start to manifest in ways that we desired. How fast the manifestation happens depend on how focused we are. I thought it would be better if the author could provide us with insights on how to stay in that desired reality and hence the missing 0.5 stars.

I bought this book because I heard the concept of Dissolving a Problem instead of trying to solve it in a conference and found it interesting. I ran into this book and it was exactly what I was looking for. I know this kind of spiritual book must be read more than once to get the most of it. There will be many times in our lives when we will be tempted to take matters in our own hands, but this books help remind us there's an easier, more harmonious way.

Simply stated magic:live life effortlessly in the flow by letting go.
For those interested in spiritual work, this book is a primer on letting go and letting the divine connection carry you to where you want to go. Just look toward your destination all the while...lively analysis of perceived failures and why they occur.

Excellent, but still sceptical
I have read this book several times, mainly when something negative is happening in my life. I find it really inspiring and comforting. The approach is unique in shifting your focus away from your problem, to starve it of energy. Not the same as denial, you move aside and focus on an alternative reality where there is no recognition of 'problems'.
Throughout the book, there is a regular focus on 'trusting the universe's, that the universe always wants what's best for us. I have a 'problem' with this. There are countless dreadful things that make it very hard to accept this. A psychopath walks into children's dance class and murders three little girls with a knife. How is the universe supporting the victims here? I'm working on this and think there might be an answer to it that I can accept, but this hard nugget of scepticism is hard to dissolve.

if you could choose only one self-help book in your life-choose this one!
Never have I read a book that simply meticulously explains the process of shifting from an overthinking ego mind to spiritual awareness-so concisely applicable to everyday living. Although people mention that some stuff is repetitive-it makes sense as to repeat and build upon his unique method. The mind needs repetition to absorb, digest and apply a new way of thinking.
He breaks down the applicable method in 3 steps.
And what I love is anyone can benefit, no matter your religion. It’s def. In alignment with spiritual paths all about an effortless practice.
Thank you so much Richard Dotts.

The universe will do it for you, but you have give it time
My understanding if this book is as follows. Set your intention, see yourself in that new reality and don’t worry about it. All you have to do is let the universe do it for you and only take actions that you are inspired to take. Don’t fret if your desired reality isn’t happening because if you do, the universe stops working on it and instead gives you the reality where what you want isn’t happening. Mentally stay in your desired reality as long as you can to give the universe time to make it real.

Very enjoyable
I'm eager to live in a place of full union with the universe. Trying to solve problems got exhausting and it didn't work. Time to dissolve. A nice seemingly simple but powerful technique.

Little gem of a magical book
This book is an absolute gem. We get a simple concept, that if applied well, will end all our challenges, because they are never there to begin with, at one part of our Soul Consciousness.

Another Inspiring Book from Mr. Dotts!
I've read many of Mr. Dotts books and have enjoyed all of them. Shifting Physical Reality is no exception. As I read the book, I started practicing the principles of soften, shift, stay and have already enjoyed a reduction in my usual level of anxiety over all the moving parts in my life. Looking forward to even higher levels of change and mastery.

Really enjoyed this book. It was quite different to the usual self-help books that primarily focus on positive thinking. The author explains everything in a very clear and concise manner, and repeats key factors which help to reiterate the new way of thinking that you`re trying to implement. Well worth a read for anyone genuinely interested in overcoming some of life`s more serious problems.

Excellent and Clear!
Thanks to Richard Dotts' book, "Dissolve the Problem.......", I have shifted from an emergency-focused life to one of peaceful trust that my new focus is bringing new life! Thank you, Richard!

Well worth the read.
As an early interest in Seth/Jane Roberts works I found "Dissolve" to be a current expansion on "the point of power is in the present". Well presented and inspiring.

I found this book boring
While the essential idea behind this book may have some merit I was very bored by the fact that this book is 99% padding. The idea itself could have been written on the back of a postage stamp.

Amazing
This book indeed showed me the way to completely shift into a new amazing reality. For those new to this type of work, this is one of the few examples I've seen that is spot on. This is a true gem.
