Book: The EROS Equation: A SOUL-ution for Relationships

The SOUL-UTION for EVERY RELATIONSHIP!

My new book! The EROS Equation: A SOUL-ution for Relationships! JUST RELEASED! JANUARY 2014!

Einstein said, ” We can’t solve a problem from the same mindset that created it” but that is exactly what we do in the realm of relationships. We keep doing the exact same things but expecting different results. The EROS Equation offers the “something different” to do…

After spending a lifetime blaming others or circumstances, it can be a painful experience when we first acknowledge the fact that we are capable, powerful human beings and that the only thing that has ever stood in our way is our belief that we are not. The moment we decide to take responsibility for everything in our lives, we are no longer victims. The exhilaration comes as we practice applying our responsibility and we see the new results. We become contagiously happy. Life becomes fun, a game to played, a joy to experience, an adventure to be tackled, a blessing for which to be thankful, rather than a dreary existence to be survived or endured until it is over. The EROS Equation is the method for doing so.” —Jack Canfield,

The Eros Equation is a simple, to the point book revealing the common problem in relationships, the # 1 obstacle to love and the solution for making relationships work.

We live in a society of blame and victimhood. We think everyone else is the source of our problems, and we look outside of ourselves for the solutions to our problems. We let fear cause us to manipulate others in attempt to be loved. Somehow we have come to the conclusion that the only way we can be happy is if everyone (and everything) else changes. In fact, our behaviors in relationships are so insane, it is as if the target (healthy, happy relationships) is due north, so we are walking due south in the hopes that we will get there.

Through real-life examples and stories, the author shows the reader what they are doing that doesn’t work, and how doing the exact same thing will only create more of the exact same problem. She then helps you to see your life through a different lens —one of choice, power and creativity. Once we tap into these resources, our ability to create healthy relationships is simply a breath away.

The Eros Equation will reveal what our options are when something happens and how to use our wisdom, intuition and creativity to choose responses that will lead where we want to go.

Suffering is optional. Success in relationships is a choice. Everyone else may seem like the problem, but YOU are the solution.

The EROS Equation is your guide to healthier, happier relationships in every area of your life.

Review by Publisher of Spirituality and Health Magazine

This is a dangerous book. It asks a seemingly simple question; what do you really want? It then shows you that you can have it. You can be happy, content, fulfilled, and nurture your hearts desire. A scary thought for most is the idea that “a book” once read can unlock the power in us to have what we really want.

At Spirituality and Health Magazine we did a poll of our readers and overwhelmingly they wanted [personal] TRANSFORMATION. I laughed at this and said, “No they don’t want to transform. They want the world to transform around them. They want the world to change how it relates to them.”  How do i know this? Because I want the world to change the way it responds to me. I want everyone to be super nice to me, to ask me really sincerity,  “How is it going?” and then listen intently to my answer. Not just listen, but also I want them to do everything in their power to “make me happy or give me what I want.” I know others can’t make me happy. I know that others can’t make me “feel secure” or loved.

So, this is a dangerous book, because it says we can be happy, we can be in healthy relationships, we can be fulfilled; we can have what we really want. And this transformation is not dependent on anything outside our control.

So right now, on cue, your ego is saying to you, ”This isn’t possible, I can’t have it all”. Or perhaps your ego is telling you, this is probably just like that “self help” book you read years ago, and your older now so don’t risk it, stay in the comfortable rut waiting for someone to “transform” you.

I can tell you that if you read, listen and act on the wisdom of this remarkable, well-written, funny, engaging book, you will have transformation. You will have happier relationships, and you will smile more. I bought 100 of ‘em for family, friends and co-workers, and i sincerely believe that if this book was required reading the world and even the readers of Spirituality and Health Magazine would get the transformation that they are asking for.
