Ever want to hit the life reset button Make real changes in your life Psychotherapist Zeine contends that readers can free themselves from negative thoughts and experiences by becoming aware of memories and feelings that are blocking our lives. Her answer is the 'Awareness Integration Model' or AI. Zeine explores seven areas in seven chapters covering friends, work, family, love, parents, self, and God. Each chapter lists specific questions intended to prompt readers to delve into their core beliefs and to view themselves from their own and others perspectives. (Zeine suggests either journaling or recording answers.) When negative emotions are identified, the author refers readers to the appendixes, where she details steps for breaking through these barriers. The course ends with setting goals and positive intentions. * Booklist *
