Femei puternice - un ghid pentru femeile care doresc să trăiască o viață de succes
Women have struggled for a long time to have more dominion over their own lives. Louise L. Hay shows you how to become a strong and powerful being. She emphasizes that no matter what your past was like, you can learn to empower yourself and rise to the top. Some of the points Louise makes are: Developing self-worth and self-esteem are the most powerful tools women can have, a modern woman has the whole world in front of her-she can rise as high as her belief in herself; joy and happiness are always within you; you do not have to feel incomplete without a man by your side; and your most important relationship is with yourself.

About the author
Louise L. Hay
622 books2,867 followersLouise 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.

Jednostavno i jasno, za svaku ženu ponešto! Volim kada u knjizi pronađem nešto za sebe, kada je realna u svojoj pozitivi, kada je ono što prenosi iz iskustva. Jedna od onih knjiga koje te ostavljaju zadovoljnom osobom nakon što ju pročitaš.
„Ako želimo da naše sutra bude pozitivno, tada svoje mišljenje moramo promijeniti danas. Današnje misli stvaraju sutrašnje iskustvo.“

This is very much a guide book to getting a woman moving on her journey. A stepping stone to inspire us to be all we can be. she addresses issues when we are young and as we age. How much control we have over our lives and gives personal examples and great inspiration for change. She even gives the science for the skeptics who need that in order to move on and embrace ourselves.
Some highlights that touched me -
. Trust that place in me where there is infinite wisdom and holds all the answers I seek
. Think new thoughts, do the same old thing in a new way
. Trust life, it is here to take care of us and support us
. Be grateful when things work our way
. We have guardian angels -- I am going to read more about this to grasp what this means for me
. release our negative beliefs. I am planning on writing down my belief system about work, men, money, marriage, love, health, aging, death, myself, etc. and any negative beliefs that are holding me back will be reversed into positive affirmations so I can move beyond my story, my past.
. I empower myself in turn empowers other women
. Middle age is whenever you decide it to be. I have not reached my middle age yet. What you truly believe in your heart, your body will follow.
a great inspiration, as are her other books.

ذات مساء تابعت بث مباشر للدكتور في الاستشارات الزوجية حارث المزيدي وتطرق بالحديث عن تلك السيدة وتجربتها في التشافي من مرض السرطان من دون الخضوع لأي علاج كيميائي مكتفيةً على الإيحاء والنظام الصحي ، قد يحسب البعض الأمر مبالغ فيه ، لكن لو تمعنا لطريقة حياتنا وتفكيرنا سندرك جيداً لماذا لا نتحرك خطوة للأمام ، ولماذا هذا العام يشبه العام الماضي ؟!
هذا يتوقف على ما تحمله من أفكار وتجارب ماضيه وكيف فسرتها فتخزن في عقلك الباطن ليكون تفسيرك لمجريات الحياة مبنيه على تلك الأفكار إن كانت سلبية أم إيجابية ، وهذا مايفسر تقدم زملائك في العمل أو نجاح أو فشل علاقتك الزوجية فحتى لو كان الخلل من الطرف الآخر فقد تكون أنت العنصر المساعد لحدوث ذلك الشيء !
الكتاب يضم مجموعة من الأسئلة تطلب صاحبته من القارئ الإجابة عليها فهى كفيل بتغيير اتجاه تفكيرك لكل تجارب ومواقف الحياة التى مررت بها ، فلو اعتبرت تلك الحوادث أن بواطنها في صالحك ستكون أكثر قدرة على المضي والتطور بدلاً من عيش دور الضحية والنظرة السوداوية للحياة وللآخرين ، اضافة إلى تقدير الذات حتى لو نشأت في منزل يحط من قيمة المرأة وبأنها لا تستطيع القيام بأي شيء دون وجود الرجل بجانبها .
لويز هاي لا تعلن من وراء كتابها الحرب على الرجال أو حتى إلقاء اللوم عليهم بجعل النساء في المرتبة الثانية ، بل بالعكس هى تلقي اللوم على المجتمع العنصري وعلى المرأة أيضاً التى آثرت أن تكون تابع بدلاً من أن تكون قائد لنفسها ولأبنائها .

الكتاب عبارة عن مجموعة مقالات عن نظرة المراة لنفسها وكيف انه من المهم تحسينها وتنمية حبها لذاتها.. اعجبني كثييييرا فصل حب الذات وكذلك فصل التقدم في العمر.. مجتمعاتنا اصبحت مثلها مثل المجتمعات الغربية بل ربما اسوأ في مسألة تمجيد الشباب في العمر والشكل مما يؤثر على نظرة المرأة الناضجة وشعورها تجاه نفسها واهميتها في المجتمع ولمن حولها.. والكتاب يقدم افكار لكيفية تجاوز هذه العقبات.. انصح بقرائته لكل امرأة..

O carte care îți reamintește cat de important este sa trăim in armonie cu noi înșine, putem mai mult decât credem😉iar gândurile noastre devin realitate❤️

خوبیش این بود که بیشتر از اینکه بخواد در برابر مردها گارد بگیره(مثل برخی از مطالب فمینیستی)، بیشتر در جستجوی توانایی های زنانه و یادآوری این توانایی ها به زنان بود.و کاملا بدون حاشیه و با هدف نوشته شده بود.
من خوندنش رو به آقایون هم توصیه میکنم/ بخصوص قسمتهایی که درباره ی چگونگی ورود به دوران پیری انسانها صحبت کرده.
خانمها بخونید:) ارزش خوندن رو داره

I downloaded this onto my kindle about 10 years ago and recently discovered it.
A lot of this book is very dated and comes across as condescending.

A bit oldfashioned in some manner and references, but it must have been mindblowing when published. Really a good read to value yourself more, because well, you should

I love to read positive and inspiring books like this, it helps to keep me focused and headed in the right direction. The main message of this book was to love yourself and love your life. A pretty darn good message I would say! It then goes chapter by chapter in how to do that in all areas of your life. I enjoyed the positive affirmations it lists for you to use and practice (yes it seems a bit silly, but it really does work for me). Some of the chapter focus points drove me nuts (because I felt I already knew it) or didn't seem applicable to me, but I really enjoyed the overall message and found bits of treasure throughout. She has another book I would like to read called, "You Can Heal Your Life," but I have a feeling it would just be more of the same because really, how many ways can you possibly say these things? So, in closing...Love yourself! Love life!

Those who follow me here on goodreads will notice soon, if not already, that I'm reading a lot of Louise Hay right now. Partly due to my bulging L5/S1 disc. Do I absolutely believe 100% that all physical illness is caused by mental blockages? In short, no, not all. I do believe that sometimes a physical ailment, is just physical. No matter how positive your thoughts are, living on earth with gravity, etc. is not easy on our bodies. But I also think that a lot of times, a lot more than we in the west tend to admit, bodily ailments do have a root cause of stress, overwork, mental fatigue, mental anguish, negativity, or other metaphysical issues. So I think it depends on the person and the issue and it's important to look (w)holistically at it.
The one thing that I can't get over when reading Louise Hay and others of similar thinking, is that it can smack of victim-blaming. So I think it's important to be aware not judge people or assume they brought illness on themselves somehow. Maybe they did, or maybe it's just a physical issue, it's not for us to judge.
This book's got some down to earth advice for women, like saving money for yourself, exercising, eating well, keeping a positive outlook on life, speaking out against sexual harassment, mixed in with some out-dated advice that didn't age so well.
The chapter on menopause was just cringe-inducing. "Traditional American Indian women do not experience menopause; they continue to menstruate until they die....They do not understand the concept of menopause... In the past, it was normal for Indian women to have children in their 60s." ... Yeah, I'm gonna need a reference on that one, Louise.
It's interesting to me, reading through the reviews, that many people say "this was printed way back when, so some issues may not be relevant anymore," because reading it in 2018, a lot of it sure seems relevant as hell. There's a chapter on speaking out against sexual harassment in which she recounts having a male employee working for her who turned out to be harassing women around her office. This is all way before #MeToo and #TimesUp.
I have some other Louise Hay books checked out from the library so we'll see if they're any better. This one was just okay.

Pirmąją šios autorės knygą ,,Mylėdamas save tu būsi laimingas", visai atsitiktinai užtikau bibliotekoje. Man ji labai patiko ir prieš kelis metus nusipirkau dar vieną jos knygą.
Louise L. Hay yra garsi saviugdos lektorė ir daugybės knygų autorė. Ji kalba apie meilę sau, pozityvų mąstymą ir vidinius pokyčius. Savo mokymuose ji naudojasi įvairiomis afirmacijomis, veidrodžiu ir gydančiomis meditacijomis.
Knyga "Moters galia tapti laiminga" yra skirta būtent moterims ir joje trumpai paliestos įvairios temos: moters išnaudojimas, savigarba, fizinė ir dvasinė sveikata, finansai, seksualumas, senatvė ir moteriškas solidarumas. Kadangi temų daug, visos jos aptartos tik paviršutiniškai, tad man pritrūko gilumo.
Kaip ir pati autorė sako, šioje knygoje yra daug pasikartojančių minčių iš ankstesnių jos knygų. Bet, pasikartoti ir prisiminti gerus dalykus yra naudinga. Ir manau, kad pradedančioms domėtis saviugda, minčių galia, sąmoningumu – ši knyga pats tas, nes informacija pateikta labai paprastai, aiškiai ir glaustai.
Anglų kalba ši knyga pasirodė 1997 m., ir kai kuri informacija man pasirodė jau pasenusi. Įdomu tai, jog rašydama šią knygą Louise L. Hay buvo septyniasdešimties metų amžiaus. Apie savo mirtį ji pasakė, kad norėtų sukviesti visus draugus į vakarėlį ir snūstelėjus nebeatsibusti. Jei internete rasta informacija patikima, iš tikrųjų ji sulaukė 91 metų ir mirė savo namuose miegodama. Argi ne minčių galios įrodymas?

هذا ثاني كتاب أقرأه للويز هاي الرائعة وأسعى أن أقتني كتبها الأخرى.
ساعدت لويز هاي ملايين الأشخاص حول العالم في اكتشاف إمكاناتهم الكامنة لقواهم الإبداعية الخاصة للنمو الشخصي والشفاء الذاتي.
في هذا الكتاب خاطبت المرأة خصيصًا عن علاقتها بنفسها أولًا ثم مع الآخرين والبيئة المحيطة بها. ثم تحدثت عن كيف يمكننا خلق النجاحات،الصحة الجيدة، مستقبل مالي آمن وتحسين جودة الحياة بشكل عام. توجد بعض الأفكار في الكتاب من الثقافة الغريبة التي لا يمكننا تقبلها والإيمان بها ولكنها تناسب نسائهم في تلك المجتمعات.
كتاب رائع وسلس، يمكنكِ قراءته في بضع أيام

Empowing book for Women!
December 7, 2009
This is the first of Louise Hay's books that I have read. (Her work was recommended to me by a fellow person who is interested in alternative medicine). Like some of the other reviewers of the book I appreciated the purpose of this book, which was to provide inspiration, uplift, and encourage women to be more aware of how emotions, even subconscious, affect their life from financial success to physical health. The premise of Hay’s philosophy seems to be that the thoughts we think, the words we speak, and the beliefs we hold shape our experiences and our lives. We have power over our words and more than 60,000 per day thoughts; as we change our thinking and our words, our experiences also change.
Things I liked: this book is a quick read (about 2 1/2 hours). I liked learning more about Hay's philosophy, and I agree that there is definitely in how we view our physical health and emotional/spiritual health. I really enjoyed Hay's uplifting attitude and was inspired by the vitality for life she shared through her writing. I plan on reading some of her other work.
Things I could have done without: (1) The first two chapters are much of a rah-rah-go-women type of chapter. (2) I do not agree with Hay’s conception of the Universe, incarnation, etc. but I still believe that her overall philosophy synchronizes with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and my understanding of Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, the Holy Ghost and the purpose of life. (3) Chapter seven is about “exploring sexuality” – I do not agree with her condoning of lesbianism, although I do agree that we need not judge others or condemn them based only on what they have identified as their sexuality. I do not agree with Hay’s beliefs because of my own beliefs in eternal laws of morality.

• الكتاب ممتاز بالنسبه لي في تلك المرحله كان نقله واستفدت منه كثيرا حيث يحتوي على توكيدات مدعمه للثقه بالنفس وأيضا هناك تمرين :
1- احضار العديد من الأوراق والكتابة على كل صفحه ما تعتقدينه في الرجال العمل المال الزواج.. والخ وكل موضوع مهم في حياتك وبعد كتابه كل ماترغبين بكتابته
2- اقرئيها كلها ثم ضعي علامه بقلم على الأفكار التي تخدمك ولون مختلف للأفكار التي لا تخدمك وتقف بينك وبين اهدافك في الحياه
3- تأملي كل رأي سلبي وقولي لنفسك " هل أريد ان يستمر هذا الرأي في إدارة حياتي ؟ أم ارغب في التخلص منه ؟" اذا اردتي اجراء تغيير في حياتك قومي بعمل قائمة جديد وحولي كل الآراء السلبية وقومي بإعادة صياغتها ، مثال " لا أستطيع الحصول على عمل" حوليها " أن الحياة تعطيني أفضل عمل".
وسيأخذ هذا التمرين وقت ولكن تأثيره فعال وكان بداية معرفتي للأفكار المعيقة بداخلي تجاه أي شيء مهم في حياتي وأول طريقه قمت بتطبيقها .. وبعدها انطلقت لطرق كثيره ، و بالنسبة لي يستحق الكتاب 5 نجوم وخفيف ولطيف وخصوصا للمبتدئين في القراءه

The version I "read" was an audio book. Louise Hay is a best-selling author, founder of Hay House, Inc., and the international leader in inspirational and self-help publishing. At times her views can be seen as radical and definately unorthodox.
This (audio) book was interesting and had some really "empowering" advice, thoughts and antedotes but I didn't enjoy it as much as I have her other work.
As with any "self-help" book, I would recommend keeping an open mind and retaining only those things that resonate with you.

I recommend this book to women AND men. This isn't your bog standard "women are great, men are cr*p" kind of book. This is about challenging some of the stereotypical ways women are brought up in and challenging some of the inherently backwards behaviours that have been instilled in them by others (men and women). If you appreciate the power of affirmations on outcomes, you'll appreciate this book. Alot of self work is required to truly gain the benefit of Louise Hay's Empowering Women and it's one that you, and I, will no doubt return to time and time again throughout life.

Sometimes when my mood is very low for a while, I start searching for some inspiration in popular psychology books. Most of the time I flip through them rather quickly, sometimes inspired, sometimes annoyed by the dull reading material.
This book did not give me any new ideas. It lacks depth and feels like just rushing through the chapter titles

مناسب للخارجات من ازمات،او للمبتدئات بإكتشاف ذواتهن،كلامه لطيف وناعم وداعم،مااستفدت منه حقيقة شيء،بالنسبة لي مكرر،خفيف انهيته بجلستين

كتاب خفيف لطيف يوجه رسائل ايجابية للمرأة،
يختصر الكلام المطول الذي يذكر في كتب اخرى.

"علينا ألا نولي اهتماما للمفهوم القديم القائل إن المرأة لا تستطيع أن تدرك أي شيء. دائما مانظن أننا لانعرف شيئا، ولكننا أكثر ذكاء مما نعتقد، لذا نستطيع أن نتعلم ما نريد."
أنصح كل النساء بقرأته ..
