This is a wonderful book. In it, Annie B. Lawrence describes her own relationships and gives examples from her own practice of various situations she has encountered with her clients. What I enjoyed about this book is 1) true life examples; 2) questions one may ask of oneself to get deeper into situations 3) envisioning and 4) EFT exercises you can do yourself to assist in bringing your love into reality.

In this book, there is no blame. It's about finding out where you are and how to get where you want to be.

Easy to read; easy to understand. If you need a coach, Annie is available AND, I'd suggest you check out her beautiful location in Sedona Arizona.

By Dr. Tami Brady "Whole Health Therapist" (Calgary, Canada)

I think it's just human nature that we all want to be loved. We all hope that we'll meet that handsome prince or beautiful princess. We'll fall madly in love and live happily ever after. Somehow we expect that this person will magically break through all our barriers, clear out all our relationship baggage, and love us exactly the way we need to be loved. Then, we wonder why reality doesn't match our fantasies.

The truth is that no one can live up to these expectations and the problem isn't your significant other. The real underlying issue of all relationship problems lies within yourself. Thus, in order to enjoy an open, honest, passionate, and loving relationship, you have to take a good look at yourself first. Not only do you have to learn to love yourself but you have to understand what underlying beliefs that are undermining your potential happiness.

Love's Secret presents a variety of techniques that the reader can use to examine the real cause of unhappiness including journaling and visualization. The author also makes use of what she calls Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). Essentially, this is a tapping method used to stimulate certain points on the body to reinforce healthier messages about various relationship issues.

Great Gift to Create Love and Passion, December 12, 2007
By Angela Hutchinson (USA)

Love's Secret Live Your Life in Lovewas awarded finalist in USA Book News in self-help relationship. It is a book that all couples can benefit from that want more love and passion.

Annie Lawrence is ready to share her 12 secrets to living a life full of love and purpose in her new book, Love's Secret. She focuses intensely on the relationship and what it takes to make the union one of positive growth and support. Not only can we grow as a couple in relationship, but also develop as a person emotionally and spiritually. Lawrence's writing is truly magnetic and her ability to connect with the reader is superior. If you are ready to walk away with a great deal more knowledge than before, it's definitely time to begin this particular journey.

Relationships can bring out personal fears; humbling "fall to your knees" type of fear. We are faced with aspects of intimacy and self knowledge that can be challenging to address. Intimacy is scary to some who may not feel familiar with it, especially in childhood. Relationships can also force us to acknowledge shadows in ourselves that are sometimes difficult to see. We must make a commitment in relationship to attend to our core issues that we develop in youth. "Core issues created in your childhood are the magnetic pull that draws you toward your perfect partner in order to begin your healing journey." It is a place where our life's work begins if we remain committed to growth and healing.

In Love's Secret, Lawrence discusses a process called EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). "EFT is an effective tool to clear away emotional patterns and beliefs in the emotional body and energy meridians in your physical body." It includes tapping areas of the body that "correlate to energy meridians" and using affirmations of self acceptance, love and forgiveness. The author extends resources for readers wanting to learn more.

As she continues through each secret, she shares her own personal experiences, as well as the experiences of clients who benefitted from the 12 secrets. The author writes of healing, which is basically the spiritual journey of life. We are here to face our core issues, love, and heal. First, however, we must clear our belief system. "Preprogrammed beliefs and patterns passed on to you through your environment and families are your life lessons." We must take time for inner reflection and find what is true for us. What patterns exist? It is a path for the brave of heart to seek out a healing of spirit. Lawrence recommends journaling so that we become more aware of our moods, thoughts, and habits that can sabotage our greatest intentions. Her questions posted after each secret are quite helpful to gain a better understanding of where we are and where we want to be.

To become vulnerable enough to take an honest look at ourselves, we must develop trust in ourselves, the relationship, and in a loving universe. Being able to give up our need to control everything is where change begins. According to the author, this is where we own our true power. Sometimes in childhood, we learn to close our hearts as a self protective device. This soul journey can only be done with an open heart...a heart open to intimacy. As our issues surface, we focus on our healing, and life is anew with each resolved issue.

With increased awareness, we are ready to create a new vision of love. "Meditation and yoga had taught them (Judy and Larry) how to access their inner wisdom. This gave them a mutual tool for connecting to their heart to access their heart's desires." We are ready to share our dreams and truly hear what our partner desires and envisions.

Love's Secret goes on to share valuable wisdom through the remaining secrets addressed. This wisdom can change a life and it can change the world as we see it. True change begins within and cannot help but transform the world. Annie Lawrence is a healer of relationships and injured spirits. This is truly her contribution of guidance. She urges her readers to look beyond the surface of daily living into the spiritual aspects of healing the pain that can control the lives we've created. We can reach beyond the pain, from a healed heart, into the passion of divine possibilities. Love's Secret is for the couple and the spirit seeking more love and greater peace. It is a significant source of comfort and counsel.

Life changing advice, October 25, 2007
By A. Keppel "Audra"


This book was recommended to me and my husband. Our once blissful young marriage had taken a bad turn after long periods of stress. We felt totally disconnected from eachother. The tools I learned from this author were life changing, especially The "EFT technique" that works magically to release defeating habits.It also helped me realize, how much of the stress in our lives had been created by our old thinking patterns. The commit to love helped us reprioritze our relationship. Has truly changed us for the better and we are right back on track, and my husband has not even finished the book yet. The tools I learned I have applied in all areas of my life for immediate self improvement, each day I uncover more about myself and find I experience less and less stress and well. I even used "EFT" to quit smoking after trying everying I could find that did not work. I have forgotten about cigarettes as well as the explosive arguments between my husband and I that are long a thing of the past. Worth its weight in gold. Much Thanks to this author!

Love's Secret taught me to love again. I lost my husband in Afghanistan and visited Annie Lawrence at Retreat and Heal. By applying her love secrets offered in her book and through her retreat, I was able to heal and learn to love again. Roberta Stewart
