Nothing Changes Until You Do: A Guide to Self-Compassion and Getting Out of Your Own Way

I really like Mike Robbin's latest book. While his other two books are excellent as well, this one really is written at a whole new level. Perhaps it is the essay format versus the how-to format, but the feel is much deeper with Nothing Changes Until You Do. The stories and the tips for using the insights gained from Mikes observations and wisdom really hit home. The format allows one to pick up and read any of the essays and take in a lot of wonderful wisdom. It is like going to a dessert table and choosing from so many great desserts. The author's style is to write a very transparent and conversational book and that comes across very well here. This is a book to be treasured on your book shelf and can be shared with your whole family, especially with kids if you have them.

Mike Robbins is a compassionate person and a wonderful author. He's done a lot of work, both self-help and helping others in the last 16 years since I met him. This latest book is a must-have if you're interested in personal progress. Mike writes in a style that is easy to read and down-to-earth. The format is super user-friendly. You can open it up anywhere and glean valuable insights and incentives to practice. Each page is its own little gem of wisdom. And the bottom line is that it is empowering. Mike lovingly moves you out of victim mentality and into the driver's seat so you can shift perspective and step into your power. This book is one of those books you buy a bunch of to keep around and give out to your friends -it's not likely to come back if you just lend it out! Thanks, Mike!

Great book ! Great for our bookclub.

I am a huge Mike Robbins' fan. I received his book as a gift after hosting him as a speaker and enjoyed it's simple but meaningful messages. It's an easy read and is enjoyable storytelling. For anyone looking to be more authentic or grow out of your comfort zone this is for you.I recommend this book for anyone who wants to learn more about- How to be compassionate with yourself and tips how to do that- How to ask for what you want - the answer is always no until you ask.- How to take more risks that lead to greater reward. Big risks get easier with practice. Being vulnerable is risky. Change how you approach or think of risks and you will see change with you and everything around you.

A good read, but no real practical guide. Enjoyed the meditations and the anecdotes, but finished feeling like I wanted more. An awakening read rather than a guide.

I actually saw mike robbins at a work convention. I ordered his books while he was still on stage.If you are working on yourself for personal and or professional growth. His books need to be on your list to buy.

After finishing the book Nothing Changes Until You Do, I had this 'AHA' moment where I realized each of the 40 chapters are like a yoga pose for the mind & soul -- actions both internal and external that are simple, but not always easy. Mike dynamically illustrates the balance and imbalance in each pose (or chapter) through authentic stories and clear action steps. He invites us to stretch, reach and get out of our comfort zone while taking each life pose in a more efficient manner. All 40 chapters integrate into a beautiful practice. I know Amazon categorizes this as a book, but I can say it's more. I hope you find the AHA moment as well when you read the book. Enjoy!

Good book...authentic. One thing I would add would be Celiac affects people. Hair loss/miscarriage/Bipolar/cancer/ depression and more may be due to Celiac. Tests may not work to diagnose it. Low sunlight may cause less laughing/cry easily...cause Celiac. No gluten/dairy/soy/sugar/GMO/food with a label....vitamins/good oils/minerals...probiotics...LDN..detoxing may help brain/body/personality/depression/health issues fast and then life can be happy/healthy. Interesting book/has some good insights. Thanks for writing the book.

Every chapter is a story, usually a story of a personal nature and how that story relates to the theme. I also discover some unique ideas, and different ways oaf looking at things.

One of my favourite books I have ever read. Well and truly changed my perspective to life. By changing my attitude my relationship to myself and others are more positive. Recommend this book to anyone wanting a light read but also life changing!

Mike talks with authenticity that is inspiring. His stories show his feelings through his experiences and reminds us we can all be vulnerable at times, but that it's ok

My son and I are listening to this CD, read by the author Mike Robbins, each morning in the car. We are on the last of thefour CD's. I am not sure what made me order this from Amazon...possibly the other reviews, but I am glad I did.Great story, read with honesty and feeling.

This book made so much sense to me. I am now in the process at looking at things in a much more positive way and feeling better for it. It is laid out simply and I refer back to it when needed
