Being in Balance: 9 Principles for Creating Habits to Match Your Desires Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 1,225 ratings

An extraordinary 9-step program that will give you the keys to perfect balance in every aspect of your life.

In this inspirational work, beloved best-selling author
Dr. Wayne W. Dyer shows you how to restore balance in your life by offering nine principles for realigning your thoughts so that they correspond to your highest desires.

Imagine a balance scale with one end weighted down to the ground, and the other end – featuring the objects of your desires – sticking up precariously in the air. This scale is a measurement of your thoughts. To restore the same balance that characterizes everything in our universe, you have to take up the weighty thoughts so that they match up to your desires.

The seasons reflect the overall harmony of life. For example, winter passes and the blossoms emerge. This is balanced by a need to have the trees rest, so autumn arrives on time and helps the trees ready themselves for another period of repose. This book is dedicated to the idea that we’re a vital component of this creative process and have within ourselves the wherewithal to create all that we want if we recognize and revise out-of-balance thoughts.

    I was gifted Wayne Dyer's "Wishes Fulfilled" book recently and tore through it. It was unbelievably good! He is so easy to read and to understand. That book changed me so much for the better and I wanted more. I researched other books he has written (of which there are many and all with great reviews!) and decided on this one. What an amazing man he was and I am so thankful that he left all his works behind for us. Both of his books that I've read now have had such a positive impact on my life. The price is more than right for this book and you will never regret buying it. Gift it when your done to spread his message around. If more people had this knowledge it would make this world beyond incredible.

    Though one of our reviewers implies these ideas are a synopsis from the "Law of Attraction", one cannot help but to be filled with hope and peace listening to the audio version of this book. We learn through repetition. I listen to this while driving, I listen as I am getting ready for work and again upon falling asleep. If we could embrace the "Balance", then it would seem there would be less fear based

    existence on the planet. Mr. Dyer persuades us to live in an atmosphere of LOVE. Our human egos have encouraged fear in the guise of anger, hatred, violence, worry, depression and sheer misery as we look at the physical state of wars and our precious polluted planet. When will we realize that "we are the only ones who can change it!" We've proven through history as our planet screems for tenderness that the way we continue is NOT the way. Thank you, Wayne, for your commitment, your gifts and wonderful messages that you share tirelessly. When we reach "critical mass", perhaps we will all share in the joy of experiencing what the original Divine plan was meant to be. Every time I go back to the mundane methods, it only serves to prove that there is no other way to live other than to BE THE PEACE!

    I was able to glean some great new ways to help balance myself, even though I do not agree with Mr.Dryer' s own spiritual beliefs. However, I very much like that about this book, while Dyer offers his own spirituality, a lot of what he brings to the table for meditation, for looking at the world, and for helping to change our thinking, all in the name of being "balanced", is very worthwhile.

    I am thankful to have started reading and studying the work of Dr. Dyer. As someone who felt they didn't stand a chance in this life, and felt like I had just kept finding ways to fall instead of rise, without meaning to, this kind of book is much needed to take steps and make changes. Though I have been trying these changes for years, there has been much internal damage, as well as external, making me think over and over again... "I can't handle this anymore." Of course, then, life would send me events that made me feel even more of that. And more. Then again. And again. Most of us do have this voice in our heads, but we all have the ability to change that. Thankfully. It isn't just a myth or a fun, hopeful dream. It's real. Anytime I have followed and practiced the methods regularly- it worked. It has to! Just keep practicing, and turn back to these words and other words of his when you feel yourself out of balance and feeling like the worst version of yourself is taking over your life. I think deep down we are all good, it's just a matter of believing that you are. It's taking that one thought, that guilt, that pain, and shifting it immediately into something good... and if it's thinking about others, this world, and the horrible shape that it seems to be in- well, read the book and his other work to learn more. I love that he doesn't deny that there are some sad things going on. He doesn't avoid what happens as much as he just tries to guide us to find a way to work with it all so that we can remain healthy. Thank you Wayne Dyer. Thank you.

    My two cents:

    1) I found that I was able to follow the flow of thoughts in this book. This came at a time when I was ready to think on a higher more profound next level. It was the right thing I needed to hear in the right time.

    2)For the negtive reviews: Maybe, People who are giving the negative reviews weren't ready to think as deep as the book can go(only one possiblity). Take what you like and leave the rest. Negative refections vs. looking at this book with the eyes of learning opportunities. Each reader should determine his/her own opinion. I say go for it it is relatively cheap to explore this book. If your truly in the flow of LOA you can take what you like and leave the rest. There is only opportunity for growth if you see opportunity for growth.

    One of the best books I've ever read. The wisdom of Wayne Dyer never fails me, and his writing style is smooth, inspirational, and easy to understand & follow. Dr Dyer was scheduled to speak at our Unity church in Phoenix in 2015. Sadly for us, he passed away before I was able to meet him. It would have been my honor. But his writings/books go on. A very wise spiritual leader we can learn much from. Very highly recommended.

    Reviewed in Germany on September 12, 2016
    Ich liebe die tiefgründige Art, wie Dr. Wayne Dyer die Dinge analysiert. Und doch macht er es einfach nachvollziehbar und anwendbar. Ganz besonders liebevoll ist das Buch optisch aufgemacht, mit floralen Mustern eher unüblich für ein Buch. Das hat etwas Meditatives. Mir gefällt es. Das Buch werde ich sicher immer wieder mal zur Hand nehmen.
