    Now, in MIRROR WORK: 21 DAYS TO HEAL YOUR LIFE, the popular teacher and author offers the first book dedicated to her signature practice for personal transformation. The Mirror Principle, one of Louise’s core teachings, holds that our experience of life mirrors our relationship with ourselves; unless we see ourselves as loveable, the world can be a dark and lonely place. Mirror work—looking at oneself in a mirror and repeating positive affirmations—is Louise’s powerful method for learning to love oneself and experience the world as a safe and loving place. Like her successful video course, Loving Yourself, MIRROR WORK lays out a 21-day program of teachings and exercises to help readers deepen their relationship with themselves and live a joyous and fulfilling life. “Doing mirror work,” Louise tells readers, “is one of the most loving gifts you can give yourself.” Each of the 21 days is organized around a theme, such as monitoring self-talk, overcoming fear, releasing anger, healing relationships, forgiving self and others, receiving prosperity, and living stress-free. The daily program involves an exercise in front of the mirror, affirmations, journaling, an inspiring Heart Thought to ponder, and a guided meditation. Packed with practical guidance and support, presented in Louise’s warmly personal words, MIRROR WORK—or Mirror Play, as she likes to call it—is designed to help readers:·         Learn a deeper level of self-care ·         Gain confidence in their own inner guidance system ·         Develop awareness of their soul gifts ·         Overcome resistance to change ·         Boost self-esteem ·         Cultivate love and compassion in their relationships with self and others In just three weeks, the reader can firmly establish the practice of Mirror Work as an ongoing vehicle for positive growth and self-care, and a path to a full, rich life.

    All that we call thinking is the habitual association of finished, dead thoughts. But these thoughts were alive once and every new moment of understanding is a breath from the level of the living present.Stages of Consciousness proposes that we train ourselves in the stage of consciousness that we occasionally glimpse as intuition. Beginning with the intuition of the true self in the living thinking--"the fundamental experience of the spirit"--the author goes on to describe practical exercise in concentration and contemplation. Georg Kuhlewind describes his purpose in his foreword: "Modern humanity's most difficult task is to become aware of, to see and to overcome the threshold of mirrored consciousness. The first essay attempts to show how Rudolf Steiner proposes reaching this goal in his Philosophy of Freedom. Consideration of the threshold lying between thinking and what has been thought leads the one making this experiment to 'the fundamental experience of the spirit.' The third essay attempts to develop a methodology for the first steps in the realm of concentration and contemplation. The last essays set forth the outcome: how, in the observation of the soul's boundaries, these boundaries become transparent and permeable. The form of the communication is such that the reader, tracing the lines of the movements of thinking, steps into its fabric."

    Ward challenges us to discover our uniqueness and to enjoy who we are. She encourages us to discover our God-designed temperament type in order to arrive at healthy self-esteem and self-worth. This self-acceptance automatically raises our level of understanding and lowers tension in every arena and age of life, making it “fun” to celebrate differences rather than feel obligated to think and function according to another's rules. Self-Esteem—Gift from God answers our questions regarding the differences in people by using quizzes and real-life examples sprinkled with humor. Readers will painlessly and proudly discover that their personal preferences, though perhaps very different, are normal and “ok.” Encouragement to join hands with God by using our special gifts to improve our spiritual confidences forms the foundation of self-esteem.
