About the Book - Preface
I grew up knowing I had a big secret. I knew how to get what I wanted, but I also had the "belief" that you had to work hard to get it, that everything came with a price and was terribly expensive.
Later on in life, I had everything one could desire materially and emotionally: a new house, new cars, enough money to travel and buy whatever I wanted, a loving husband, two healthy and beautiful children. Yet I wasn't happy. On the contrary, I was a very angry person.
One day I recognized this anger and resentment in my oldest son, Jonathan. seeing this was such a shock. It really woke me up and I said to myself, "Mabel, you have to do something about it. You cannot go on like this. This has to stop."
In that moment I began my search. The first seminar I attended was on the topic of anger. it was conducted by Dr. Bill, to whom I am immensely grateful for all that I have learned from him. I later practiced yoga and visualization with Anna, which allowed me to get in touch with the incredible power that we have inside to create and attract what we want. I experienced the most radical change when my friend, Mirta, lent me a metaphysical book.
Incredible! That book really woke me up. It talked a lot about Jesus (remember now that I am Jewish), but I felt good reading it. I didn't want to let it go. I would have liked to have read it all in one day. I began to practice the techniques that the author mentioned in the book and they worked. This confirmed once again that the power to change things was inside me and did not depend on anyone or anything else. I thought, "There's something big here, very big," and my heart started to beat in a different way. I was happier than ever before. I felt an inner happiness that cannot be described with words; it has to be lived, felt, and experienced to be known.
After trying different paths, among them Rebirthing, I found Ho'oponopono, an ancient Hawaiian art that teaches us to resolve our problems. Thanks to its teachings, I discovered that LIFE CAN BE EASY, certainly much easier than I had imagined. After much searching, I have finally found my way. It is a way that allows me to be at peace in the middle of a tempest; it allows me to feel free independently of what is happening around me or of what others are doing or saying. This is why I have chosen to share in this small book, all I have learned up until now.
I am immensely grateful for this opportunity.
