If you are a fan of Colette Baron-Reid, you will probably enjoy this book even if you don't have weight issues. If you are not familiar with her, she is a gifted intuitive counselor (she does not like the term medium) who has appeared on Dr. Phil and written other books on intuition. I am probably a bit biased, having attended her live workshops. I was expecting this to be good because I enjoyed The Map and Remembering the Future: The Path to Recovering Intuition.Her knowledge of this subject is first hand, having gained 70 pounds in 3 months when her mother died. I could relate to her experience, having done the same thing when my son died. Over the years she tried everything from dieting to overeaters anonymous, but it was only when she linked clairsentience, or "feeling too much" with food and weight that she was able to drop the extra pounds, stop dieting, and find peace with this.So, what exactly does it mean to "feel too much"? Some people are very empathic, and they tend to pick up the feelings of others around them. When the other people are carrying negative feelings, you can pick up the negative energy and become emotionally (and physically) overloaded. I think everyone has experienced how a negative person can bring you down.The book is based on her highly successful program that she has conducted live and online. The book, like her program is very interactive with questionnaires, visualizations, and suggestions for understanding your emotions.
First of all, I was skeptical of this book since most of the "five star" reviews were done on the same day (January 1st has ten reviews!), and the following days have several "five star reviews" each day. Most of the reviewers only reviewed this authors books.This reeks of "paid reviews", but I also know some publishers give advance copies so I gave her the benefit of the doubt (I really wanted to appreciate this book). I felt like it was about time a book dealt with the emotional side of weight loss. However, this book fell short by miles.First of all, the title of the book creates tension and stress itself. Saying people "feel too much" is just putting more pressure on people, implying they are doing something wrong. You can never "feel too much". We are humans, we are on this earth to feel, because this is how we learn and grow. If everything felt the same, we would stay stagnant. So, I think a better title would have created a differnt direction for this book. I believe those who "feel too much" are simply people who have suffered a lot in childhood, and haven't released those emotions - so those emotions continue to present themselves. This is not a bad thing, as these are often the people who learn the most from life, and often go on to do great things. It is not simply a case of "feeling too much".The book itself, is like other reviewes stated, very redundant. It makes me believe the author was creating filler, instead of being simple and focused.This will probably turn off a lot of people. When she finally gets to the exercises and such, it all seems like stuff I have read before. Journaling and writing your feelings down.
