Review by RobertaG, 2010-09-01
As a psychotherapist, I am always looking for self-help books
to refer to my clients to help them understand more deeply
some of the issues we discuss. John Gray's book, like his others,
is very basic, very simple and good for people who have no idea
about how to approach or work with thsir feelings. If you're someone
who has been through good insight indepth therapy, this book is way
too simple, a beginner's book. He uses alot of cartoon-like pictures
and it almost feels condescending.
I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who has done any work on themselves
at all. If you have just started the work, perhaps, but there are others
that are better written to help one begin their journey.

John Gray is known for his "Men are from Mars ..." series, which I think is fantastic. I believe this book is even better and is one of my favorite books to read. This book is very easy to read and gives you a lot to think about. My advice is to read through the book and when you get stuck, just continue on and you can always come back.
I learned a lot about myself by reading this wonderful book. I've found peace in my life and I believe that everyone must read this book. I hope you find it as valuable as I did.

The book was really childish and didnt help me at all. Its all big pictures and little useful information
Review by J. Gill, 2009-06-27
This book teaches us the most basic yet crucial information regarding our feelings. It is so important to acknowledge, validate, embrace, and feel ALL our feelings, yet we are taught to repress certain feelings and make them bad.
This book gave me permission years ago to embrace all myself, to know myself more deeply, to love myself.
It teaches about the feeling dynamic in relationships as well...It can save relationships!!
EVERYONE MUST READ THIS BOOK!!!!!!! God bless John Gray!

"The major cause of human dissatisfaction and frustration is the absence of love." ~ pg. 2
"What You Feel You Can Heal" is an uncomplicated guide to emotions we all experience. John Gray encourages the reader to express their negative emotions in order to create an environment in which love can flourish and grow. The main premise is that repressed emotions block the flow of love.
Each page is illustrated with an amusing cartoon, which makes this book a quick read. In a matter of hours you can learn a few useful techniques that allow you to feel more positive about life.
John Gray encourages the idea of writing love letters although I still think the section of the letter with all the negative issues (I hate...) might be a bad idea. There is also a strange section on "duplication" where you repeat what someone says in order to become more empathetic. I found the following to be very true:
"The people who make you the most angry are the people you care about the most." ~ pg. 2
