Hi,
Good morning! This week, I would like to introduce to you an amazing book, “You Can Heal Your Life” written by Louise Hay. A friend of mine who read this book liked it so much that he bought dozens of copies of it and gifted them to several of his relatives and friends including me. I shall share with you from this book the summary of one of the chapters “My Story” wherein Louise describes her own journey of life and the lessons she learnt from it. A little longer note, though I abridged it quite a bit.
“Before, taking you through her journey of life, I must tell you what she is today. She is a metaphysics lecturer and teacher and the bestselling author of 27 books including ‘Heal Your Body’ and “The Power Within You’. Her book, ‘You Can Heal Your Life’ has been translated in 29 different languages, available in more than 35 countries, and has sold more than 30 million copies. She has helped in the process millions of people heal their lives. Listen to the inspiring story of her life in her own words....”

“I was a little girl of 18 months when my parents divorced. My step-father treated us with brutality and I suffered his violence as a child. When I was about 5 years old, a neighbour, an old wino, raped me, and he was sentenced to 15 years in prison. Most of my childhood was thus spent enduring physical and sexual abuse. My self-image became lower and lower as I started believing that I was worthless and did not DESERVE anything.”
“When I was 15, I could not take the sexual abuse any longer, and ran away from home and from school. At the age of 16, I gave birth to a baby girl who I could not keep. I gave her away. I left the child when she was 5 days old, experiencing no joys of motherhood but only the suffering of loss, guilt, and shame. I then returned to my home and found my mother, who continued to be a victim, and took her away, helped her to get a job as a domestic servant in a small hotel, left for Chicago, and did not return for 30 years.”
“But with the violence I experienced as a child and sense of worthlessness, I only attracted men into my life who mistreated me and often beat me. Gradually, however, through positive work experiences, my self-esteem grew, and these kind of men began to leave my life. My old pattern of unconsciously believing - I deserved abuse – no longer existed. I moved to New York and became a high-fashion model, married a wonderful, English gentleman. But once again, I felt crushed when one day after 14 years of marriage; he announced his desire to marry another.”
“But what changed my life was when I attended a church meeting. While their message was new to me, something within me said, “Pay attention,” and so I did. I lost interest in beauty and fashion and became a voracious student. Though I was a school dropout when I was 15, I started devouring every book I could lay my hands on that pertained to metaphysics and healing. Three years later, I became eligible to apply for Church’s licensed practitioner, passed the test; and began as a church counsellor. Out of the work I was doing, I was inspired to put together a little book “ Heal Your Body” which began as a simple list of metaphysical causations for physical illness in the body. I began to lecture and travel and hold small classes.”
“.....Then one day, I was diagnosed as having cancer....”
“I went into total panic, but I knew that mental healing would work. I believed that if I could clear the ‘mental pattern’ which actually led to this cancer, then I would not even need an operation. I also know that I had to love myself a great deal more than what I was. I also realised that it was okay and even essential for me to love and approve of myself. At first, it was difficult for me to do things like stand in front of the mirror and say things like, “Louise, I love you.” However, I persisted. Gradually, I cleared my mental patterns of resentment that I had been holding since childhood. I did not have an operation – however as a result of all the thorough mental and physical cleansing, six months after my diagnosis – I no longer had even a trace of cancer!”
“Now, I know from my own personal experience that DIS-EASE can be healed, if we are willing to change the way we think and believe and act. And, as a result, the big tragedy became the greater good in my life. I learned so much from this experience and I came to value life in a new way. I began to look at what was really important to me. My little book, “Heal Your Body” opened new doors for me. Slowly, new clients appeared. I was asked to speak here and there, and within a couple of years, I was able to move into a lovely home. I could reconnect with my mother and sister. By then my mother turned 90, blind, and almost deaf. She came to live with me, started exercising, had her cataract removed, and started seeing the world again. She left the world peacefully a few years later...”

When we really love ourselves, everything in our life works.” Let us take time to introspect, be honest, and start the cleansing process that could make our life much more enriching and joyful.
