“Dying to Be Me, My Journey from Cancer, to Near Death, to True Healing” by Anita Moorjani is an astonishing book. I recommend it to every soul on the planet–seriously! It’s a Hay House publication. The foreword is by Dr.Wayne Dyer. In fact, he pursued the author to get her to write her story so go get it. Let me know what you think.
I think it will change your life forever… for the better.

The book underscored for me the necessity that each of us recognize our magnificence and live from that perspective, allowing no one to bump us off-course from being exactly who we are, because when we are jarred off-course, dis-ease happens: stress, anger, disdain, judgment, even heart disease and cancer–all of the maladies that have become so much a part of far too many cultures (dare I say most cultures, although I’m not aware of how many cultures there are on this amazing blue marble we claim as our current domicile).
Although I’m a wordsmith, I can’t wrap this review in sufficient superlatives to adequately describe the value of ‘Dying to Be Me.’ My only regret is that the publisher didn’t hire a professional editor to go through the manuscript and tighten up some of the passages. It’s a small blemish that simply should not have occurred. This book deserved the works when it came to everyone involved in making it happen. Even Dr. Dyer’s foreword is clunky in spots. I just hate seeing it happen when I’m so enamored of the underlying message, because I notice distracting anomalies that most people may not even notice because it’s my job as a professional copywriter, author and wordsmith to make sure every sentence is spotless, concise, and riveting and that it says what it’s meant to say in the best way possible. But again, this is quibbling. I just respect and honor language so much that it drives me a little batty to see it limping where it should be running a four-minute mile. Some books should be exemplary in every respect–and this is one of them!! (Most Hay House publications are, in fact..)
Get the book anyway. I implore you. Unless you’re a professional wordsmith, you shouldn’t notice anything amiss. It’s a fabulous recounting of the author’s life and death struggle with trying to be all things to all people and failing so often that her stress and disappointment eventually took her health away. It’s a book you’ll want to keep nearby and refer to often as your life changes to emulate the insights and wisdom gleaned from it.
