Publishers Weekly

Emotional energy is "an aliveness of the mind, a happiness of the heart, and a spirit filled with hope"-and unfortunately, it's not always easy to come by. When we feel grouchy and lethargic, when we drag our heels through life and avoid treating ourselves to things we enjoy, then, writes psychotherapistKirshenbaum, we're likely suffering from emotional fatigue. And we're hardly alone: according to the National Institutes of Health, one individual in eight becomes saddled with a stubborn case of the blahs. In this upbeat and consumer-friendly how-to, the author of Too Good to Leave, Too Bad to Stay strives to shrink that stat. By sharing real-life anecdotes and posing pointed questions-"Do you live in fear of other people's judgments?"; "[Do] you frequently compare yourself to others and feel resentful?"-Kirshenbaum helps readers identify the roots of their lethargy, and implement the appropriate strategies for regaining their spunk. Her solutions are straightforward (and perhaps easier said than done): Stop the negative thinking; focus on the positive. Envision yourself with pep; invest in what you can control. Like all self-help books, this volume should not be treated as a magical elixir, and Kirshenbaum is careful to advise readers whose fatigue may be associated with psychological or physical illness to seek professional help. But it may be enough to lift readers out of the doldrums, which makes the going worthwhile. (Jan.) Copyright 2003 Cahners Business Information.

Mira Kirshenbaum's latest book addresses the most important and least understood ingredient in maintaining high energy. This practical, easy to understand book takes cutting edge research and puts it in the hands and hearts of everyone who wants the opportunity for a high spirited life. Every patient I see asks me how to increase energy; Mira has provided the answer. Highly recommended.
—Arthur P.Ciaramicoli, Ed.D., Ph.D., author of The Power of Empathy


Kelly R. Hale
Fascinating! I think people need to grasp the premise in this book that physical energy amounts to only 30% of total energy. 70% of a person's energy must come from emotional energy. All this untapped energy and we're not even tuned in. Everyone should read this book. Thyroid patients could especially be empowered with such knowledge.
—Kelly R. Hale, President, American Foundation of Thyroid Patients
