Find the Love You Deserve and Keep it
This is a wonderful book. In it, Annie B. Lawrence describes her own relationships and gives examples from her own practice of various situations she has encountered with her clients. What I enjoyed about this book is 1) true life examples; 2) questions one may ask of oneself to get deeper into situations 3) envisioning and 4) EFT exercises you can do yourself to assist in bringing your love into reality. In this book, there is no blame. It’s about finding out where you are and how to get where you want to be.
