I was bullied and lived in silent fear and anxiety for many years. As an adult I always lacked confidence and felt I should have achieved more. If I’d have learned at school all that I understand now from reading your book I would have known it wasn’t my fault and I wasn’t innately bad and being punished. I would have told someone I was being bullied and allowed myself to know then that I count too.

I have suffered for years with anxiety and depression, causing immense misery in my marriage and difficulty at work. If I had learned at school how to handle my ‘Rats’ and connect with my own power I would have had a completely different life. I support this being taught in schools 100% - it’s about time!

I came from a family of worriers so it was obvious where my insecurities and anxieties stemmed from. However, despite lots of counselling and other help to overcome this, I have never really felt safe and confident. I can see that if I had learned how my mind works and all about my stress bucket and how to handle my ‘Rats’ and to reprogramme my ‘blueprint’ and to feel good about myself at school I would have saved myself many years of misery. I’m so glad I’ve found this book now and fully support this information being taught in schools. I can see how it would save many people a lot of troubles.

I wish I had known the 5 components of living in my Palace mind when I was young! How wonderful to learn how to have a good life! Surely it is much more important to learn things like this at school than just the algebra and history that soon gets forgotten. I am now a mother and would love for my young children to be learning this as part of the curriculum. Bring it on!

I am lucky enough to have had good jobs where I have achieved well, yet dealing with colleagues has sometimes been difficult. If I had understood techniques such as Miracle Questioning I would have found communicating much easier. I believe the education system would serve people much better by preparing them for the outside world in these ways.

I have had a string of relationships that have been bad. Having read your wonderful book and worked through it I have been able to understand so much; how my ‘blueprint’ was dysfunctional and how I could never have let myself actually have the kind of relationship I wanted; how I’ve always attracted men with the same wrong love languages; how my negative beliefs about men were sabotaging me; how my lack of self-worth and neediness for love drove me to give so much for just a few crumbs back. If I had learned all I now know from your book when I was at school I don’t think I would have had any of the relationships I’ve had and certainly saved myself and my family a huge amount of pain and trauma. Just simple life skills about how to have a good life, taught at a young enough age to create a positive adulthood, seems to me to be something everyone would benefit from.
