Hi! Has anyone read The Secret by Rhonda Byrne? I am currently listening to it on audio as I have a long commute. I have found that some parts of it are a little hokey, but on the whole, it has made me feel happy and calm. If you have read it, what are your thoughts? Thanks!

Sorry, guys! I just saw another post about this book. Feel free to respond if you'd like.

I read the book and really loved it. It gives you a different perspective on being positive..goes beyond that.

I watched the movie...very thought provoking! All & all, I found it to make more sense than not...my biggest obstacle to overcome is that of anticipatory (negative) anxiety. When I turn that energy around to EXPECTING good things vs "oh my gosh, what "if" something BAD happens"...not only do I feel better, but most often the final outcome is much better as well! Amazing how much power our thoughts have over our actions/feelings! To me it makes perfect sense that if we put positives into our universe that that energy draws positives back...it's just that some days are much easier said than done...ugh! With that, let me leave this on a positive note...hope all who read this have a wonderful day! Each & every day I gain so much from this forum...when I'm faced with situations that I think I might struggle, I think back to some very inspirational posts that I'd read here and all I can say is Thanks Everyone!!

The Secret changed my life! The first time I watched it I was feeling down ad it immediately gave me a boost! It has changed my thinking patterns, made me happier, and more possitive! A must read/see for everyone!

Hi All-

I've read the book and seen the movie - both several times. I think they are great. You need to be reminded over and over of the good ideas if you don't live them closely. There are other books that took off because of the laws of attraction. Check out the resources and then of course the people listed in the book. They have books, websites, movies, programs, newsletters, etc. - all of them have something else they offer as a resource that will help you delve more deeply. I know it works when I emerse myself. Try it. It's wonderful. -J

I saw the movie. I was skeptic at first, and rolled my eyes when i heard about it but was drawn in accitdentaly when my mom was watching it and i thought it was full of really interesting ideas. I was at a really low point when i watched it and it made me feel like i could accomplish something. the people that talk in it are all really charismatic and i think that it would be worth watching
