Book For a Lifetime! May 21, 2009
By Janet from Osprey
My Book Club read and spoke at length of the areas we found most profound and relevant to our lives over the years. The uniqueness of Dr. Johnson's meaning of spirituality is a universal expression that does not exclude anyone. Because of the many pathways to discovering our real selves we were reminded, throughout the book, of the importance of our real selves which then enabled us in our discussion to speak honestly of our own personal experiences. Parts of the book are better appreciated by readers in different cycles of life. Because of our age- most are over 55 years- we appreciated the whole book because of our life time of experiences. We felt a strong affirmation that many of our own choices over time were good ones. The book reinforces that no matter one's age we can still think and act on positive choices that continue to add meaning and purpose to our lives. We highly encourage people to read Reclaiming...no matter the time or age of your life...it can jump start your life's purpose and add greater joy to living. Janet from Osprey

Brilliant Apr 25, 2009
By Susan
I highly recommend this book to anyone searching for meaning and healing in life. This book is built upon solid psychological theory and moves into easily understood concepts that will appeal, not only to those in treatment or academic fields but, to those looking to make sense out of life. Dr. Johnson provides a road map for those willing to challenge themselves in order to live the best life possible.

Definitely must read! Apr 26, 2009
By Helen T.
Not long ago I bought Dr. Johnson's book and I am really impressed. It is easy to read, one doesn't have to be a professional.
Dr. Johnson's approach to solving psychological problems through spirituality is extremely interesting and unusual. Once you start reading the book, you can't stop because here and there you recognize your own problems and fears and understand how to deal with them.
I am sure that this book can help thousands of people to cope find right ways out of difficult situations, especially today, when people are really desperate, losing their jobs and homes, and badly need all the possible support they can get.
It is a great book!

Understanding who you were meant to be Aug 07, 2009
By Bernadine Johnson
Reclaiming Your Real Self... gives the reader a thorough understanding of the link between psychological concepts and spiritual practices that impact our lives. Dr. Johnson demonstrates a profound grasp of both psychological and spiritual theories which he fully explores, thus providing readers with a way to understand how linking these two can benefit their lives. In truth, the reader will find him/herself as well as friends and loved ones in these pages. Many "aha moments" occur as we begin to understand how we got to this point in our lives. Anecdotes and examples of real people in real situations make Dr. Johnson's points clear. The later chapters in the book especially provide readers insight into who we can be, might be, by understanding how past events in our lives influence our present behavior. Reclaiming Your Real Self can be a life-changing book for anyone willing to listen to its truths.
