“So, since I started applying the Keys to my life… MAN!!! So much has changed I can’t picture that person I was before. I have transformed my life, and now wake every morning with glee and gratitude, and a sense of profound well-being, despite the ongoing challenges that come my way. I feel enormously grounded, and satisfied with work, life, place, and trajectory. I started studying The 12 Keys while in a place of deep wound, and cumulative patterns that had led me to a place of tension, lack of comfort with myself and my direction, and a binding sadness. I felt stuck in Paris, in a job that was increasingly not nourishing, and far from my true place.
In the last two years, I have paid off my home in the US, quit my job, moved back to home in New York State, wrapped up life in France, started a new company which is already flourishing, am building community and friendships and work in my home village in the mountains, have a new puppy, and deeply content NOT to be in a relationship for the time being, and feel that health, peace, and ability to really make things happen have all improved to a place that would have been unrecognizable two years ago. I no longer feel like a victim, I am fully responsible for my life in each moment, and I feel joy and sheer glee daily. Does that about sum it up?”

“Shift is a humble and yet accurate title for a jewel of a book that is filled with easy, genuine practices to support the reader to move into their highest potential of self-actualization. I personally and professionally now use a number of these exercises as daily practices. Whether you are a professional working with patients and clients, or a person interested in wonderful transformation, this book is a must have for your own self-care and for the well-being of those you care for. Dr. Tracy Latz and Dr. Marion Ross gives the reader easy to follow steps on how to change dark and heavy emotional states into physical and emotional lightness of being. They draw on their brilliant talent and training, elegantly sharing universal internal processes that either infringe on our well-being, or bring beautiful and profound liberation. It is a book I read over and over again, the subject matter is this rich. Thank-you Dr. Latz and Dr. Ross.”

“I found SHIFT to be so transformative for me that I sent my sister and my best friend a copy of the book along with the companion meditation CDs the next week! I finally was able to make sense of why The Secret never seemed to pan out for me when I tried to use the concepts they discussed. I finally realized how I was creating my own obstacles to my own happiness and then I used the techniques in SHIFT to disperse those roadblocks. . . . This book is a keeper and not just a fad or trend. I changed a physical issue going on in my left breast as well as a painful marital relationship of 23 years that I am certain is a result of putting the SHIFT techniques to work in my life. I want my kids to read this! How much easier it would have been to have known what Tracy Latz and Marion Ross teach if I had learned it as a teen!! I am an instant fan!”

“This is the first book to actually point out the power of our own negative self talk and the chaos it creates in our lives. The authors go further to give the readers tools and techniques to rapidly disperse the blocks that are keeping them from moving forward in their life. This book is really easy to read. Each chapter includes very interesting real life examples of people that have used these techniques to change. I have identified with many of these examples. I used this book to go on my own inward journey to become aware of the obstacles I put in my own path. I intend to keep this book on my bedside table to refer to daily when problems arise. I really feel that it's a wonderful book to keep me on course. This book is much more practical for me then Eckart Tolle's recent book A New Earth, which took me 70 pages to get into. The Secret was another read that left me wondering why the menu that I ordered from the universe was never delivered. Shift delivers.”

“If you're interested in changing your life, pick up this book. In 12 chapters, Tracy Latz explains the various blocks that prevent happiness and self-fulfillment. Recognizing our own power to overcome or dissolve these blocks, Latz emphasizes the importance of imagination and honesty with ourselves. The writing is direct and clear, a refreshing change from many books on this subject. By giving an abundance of real-life stories, Latz helps us understand how anyone can shift his or her mind and heart to realize happiness and fulfillment. I'd recommend purchasing the accompanying CD (just download into your MP3 player) to meditate wherever you are. This book has helped me become a more relaxed, open, and sensitive person. I hope it will for you, too.”
