An Excellent Personal Resource
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
When I discovered this book many years ago as a teenager searching for wisdom and equanimity, this book, which I borrowed from a library, helped me learn some crucial lessons. The biggest lesson was as the title of the book says "You are not the target". So much of what other people do and say to us has nothing to do with us at all really. We need to turn around that accusing finger to point right back to the one who says "You...". It often speaks about him, her or them, not us. I never forgot this book and finally bought myself a copy from this site. I treasure it like an old friend.
I repurchased this after twenty years

This book is an excellent introduction to getting in touchwith your own feelings/body/self-awareness. Wonderful, playful,fun and practical exercises make sense. I am sure itprofoundly changed my life and was part of my path for becominga happy person. Unbeatable! Thanks Laura Huxley!
Don't take it personally!

This is a great book for anyone who is overly sensitive to criitism or other people's mood swings. It contains "recipes" to use when you find yourself either angered or hurt by someone else's insensitivity. I highly recommend this book for every household! If you've ever been told to be more thick skinned, then this is the book to learn how.
