This is the second in the series and I think I like this one more than the first. Each one gives you something different tho. The first is about gratitude for what you have and finding out just what you want. This one is about that Something more you know is missing from your life. While she was divorced when she wrote this book , there is something here for everyone. This book helped me alot when I was going thru my divorce because I didn't know who I was at that point, I had been married many yrs and literally had to start over. This one makes you think about that but it could be used by anyone who has lived awhile and feels there's got to be more and how to help you find it...whatever that is for you.

You may have a beautiful home, a family you adore, and work that you enjoy. But why do you secretly sense that you need something more to be truly happy?

Because it's true.

The wisdom, warmth, compassion, and disarming candor of Simple Abundance has made Sarah Ban Breathnach's a trusted voice to millions of women. Now Sarah invites you on a bold, brave, and beautiful continuation of the journey to authenticity, the search for...Something More

In this eloquent and evocative book, Sarah Ban Breathnach encourages you to become an archaeologist of your Self: to plumb your past with its unfulfilled longings, forgotten pleasures, and abandoned dreams, to "excavate" the authentic woman buried inside.

Uncovering your authentic self will be challenging-but exhilarating. Assisting your personal "dig" will be hints and prompts from the lives of both celebrated and unknown women. These, in tandem with Sarah's own insights, will help you unravel your own mystery and recover the joy that has been missing from your life. Along the way, you will experience small but exquisite epiphanies that will help you come to terms with your past choices and reveal exciting new opportunities that lead to your destiny.

Dare to begin the journey. Within these pages lie powerful truths that can change your life...and inspire you to settle for nothing less than Something More.

I love this book. Ive had it for yrs and find it to be timeless. To me its a book about finding yourself, the real you. She does it in a daily journal style so its easy to just read a bit and put down. It has become one of those books like my Bible, where when I'm feeling down or just need an answer, I pick it up and always find lil things that make me think about what I'm going thru at that moment. Some might find the things she talks about very girly and Martha-like but they are just suggestions. You have to find your own things that make you happy. But in the end its about learning how to be grateful for what you have. You cannot appreciate what wonderful things are in your life right now , if you don't know how to look for them.

This is to me a 5 star place for price and value. I had an awesome royal dinner in a wonderland setting with belly dancers as entertainment. The one we had that nite danced balancing a sword on her head! For an evening of fun and entertainment not just a dinner. http://www.tanjias.com/
