REVIEWS OF STEPPING OUT OF THE SHADOWS


Reviewed by Sydney Kelso

Stepping Out of the Shadows, a groundbreaking book, is essential for every person who wants to integrate his or her emotional and spiritual lives, and make them work. A practical guide to ending the war with we wage with ourselves, creating more loving and meaningful connections with the people in our lives, and rediscovering  our relationship with the Divine, clinical psychologist Dr. Steve Frisch welcomes the reader to a higher road of emotional health, loving relationships, and spiritual evolvement.

This book serves as a wise guide for the journey of emotional and spiritual development. Dr. Frisch goes beyond the tenets of traditional psychology and success-based self-improvement formulas. He takes you into the depths of your soul on a journey that leads the reader to greater consciousness, authenticity, and wisdom.

Stepping Out of the Shadows,
strikes at the root of spiritual bankruptcy by liberating the reader from the lies that we live that keep us from becoming more fully human. It is a healing and empowering work that brings the darkness within us to light and helps us work with the forces that shape our destiny.

This is a book that you'll want to read and re-read as time goes by. You'll discover much about yourself that you never even thought about before. This book can help you overcome many of the things that haunt you daily, from a career change that's needed, to habits that should be eliminated and getting out of ruts that hold you back. This book is long on substance providing the reader with much to think and even more to do about.

Where do I even begin with this review? By reading Stepping Out of the Shadows, my life has change entirely. My beliefs, my attitudes about myself and the people in my life, my relationship with my Higher Power—all of it has changed. My friends have grown tired of hearing me sing the praises of this book and what it has taught me about myself and life. Anyone who is lost, confused about what spirituality is and what role it plays in your life, anyone who has self-destructed from fear, shame, and depression—read this book! Now, when I get up in the morning, I feel the hope of what is possible rather than the despair of what never has been.
