    Well intentioned but fuzzy and irritating If you have never read anything in this field, you may enjoy and benefit from this book.If you have read widely, you will note that it consists of a mish mash of genuine wisdom, new age psychobabble, and corny stories, wrapped up in a woolly and confused structure.If you want a “how to” hands on self help book, go to http://www.amazon.com/Happiness-Trap-Struggling-Start-Living/dp/1590305841/If you want inspiration from classic Buddhist teachings, you’re better off with http://www.amazon.com/The-Wise-Heart-Universal-Psychology/dp/0553382330/If you want to start finding out about what’s going on with your emotional life, try http://www.amazon.com/Emotional-Life-Your-Brain-Live–/dp/0452298881/ (which has it’s own faults but is at least clear about what it’s trying to accomplish).Mind Whispering endeavours but fails to succeed in combining these three dimensions. I wanted to like it, but in the end found it only irritating.

    This is very hard to write because I sooo respect the author – very disappointing read As a meditator, horse owner, and student of horse whispering as well as Buddhism, I was thrilled to learn about this book in a post on LinkedIn. I bought it immediately. And, I must be honest in saying that it failed to pull all three ideas (psychology, Buddhism, horse whispering concepts) into a compelling, straightforward argument. It’s not that the kernel of the Big Idea is not there, it just did not come together in this iteration of the book. The ideas do not mesh well as presented and end up being a disjointed read that is characterized by mixed, complex metaphors, widely disparate concepts from horses and Buddhism juxtaposed against each other, dovetailed by core concepts from psychology/neurobiology. Some paragraphs left my mind spinning, needing to be re-read 2 to 3 times to “get” it. Complex, difficult to follow, difficult to take away what one needs to do to “mind whisper” generatively. And, I wish it wasn’t so because I have a deep respect for the author…
