Good Primer

I am a fan of the Hicks. I have many of their books and am always encouraging others to listen. Their style of delivery includes repeating concepts and ideas so you think they are filling time. However, they are trying to get the points to stick in your mind. I gave this book a 3 because it is only a foundation or primer to Volume 2 the Processes. If you have never read one of their books, then get this one. If you have read their books, then jump to Volume 2 as it recaps what was in this volume. Regardless of your past reads, everyone will gain much by listening to this volume.

Suspend believe, and give this a listen

I am a former skeptic who is now an Abraham-Hicks fan, after listening to "Ask and It Is Given". I highly recommend you give it a try. This is a good one to listen to on the hammock or while fishing - I used my trampoline for a hammock, and did it in an aftrnoon.

A friend of mine recommended I view one of the Abraham clips on the web, then buy an audiobook - I didn't really think it worth my time, but I looked anyway. Still not sure, but I immediately got "Ask and It is Given", and I'm glad I didn't dismiss it. It was that thump on the forehead that I needed.

You don't have to believe Ms. Hicks is channeling higher consciousness, or that the collective "Abraham" is real. Just suspend disbelief and listen to what 'they' have to say, anyway. What you hear is plain spoken, down-to-earth wisdom delivered with humor and authority - wherever it's coming from.

Important Stuff

I've listened to a lot of success oriented audiobooks. This is one of the most important, because it is a roadmap to programming your mind to get to where you want to be. It needs to be listened to several times to really understand the concepts, but once understood, it will help your life. Now, I'm a bit skeptical of the whole "Abraham" thing, and it seems very strange to me. But I've chosen to disregard that because the material presented is critical to know. Many people will live out their entire lives without being exposed to this information, and that is a shame. Each person should learn that anything is possible for them, and learning this information is a very good place to start.

GREAT INFO but...

The information and wisdom gifted through this book is powerful and motivating. Highly recommended. However; there's plenty of text omitted. Throughout the book there is mention of the "processes" to follow. These come at the end of the written text but are omitted from the audio book and there is no mention of this omission here on the Audible.com site or at the beginning of the reading. Sadly, the audio book creates anticipation and then does not follow through. Be prepared. Because of this, I suggest this version as a supplement to the written version.

Abraham enters the realm of commercialism

I was a bit surprised to find that "Ask and it is Given" Vol 1 ended on such a typical, commercial cliff hanger. The book's content is spiritual, and it is claimed that Esther Hicks channels Abraham and other spiritual entities. Towards the end of Vol 1, much is made of the exercises that will follow in order to give a practical application to the largely theoretical matters discussed. I waited in anticipation for the 20 steps that would revolutionize my life, only to have vol 1 end rather bluntly. Of course I will now buy vol 2 in order to put Abraham's wisdom into practice. I never would have thought that these spiritual entities have such a solid grip on commercialism!

Excellent!

I found Jerry and Ester Hicks work about 3 years ago, they were mentioned in the forward of another book I was reading. Their teachings are simple and have changed my life for the better. I highly recommend this book if you are open to new ideas, interested in personal growth and enriching your life.

Sure to

Whether or not you believe that Esther Hicks is actually channeling the thoughts of a group of non-physical beings, this recording will make you sit back and think. The words are wise, and when put into practice, will change your life and the way you look at anything you ever desired.

This book deserves the high ratings it has gotten on this site.

LIFE CHANGING

Even if you don't believe in channeling (I don't), look beyond this and hear the message. This is a life altering book. It has truly transformed my way of looking at the world and thus myself. I cannot say enough about this book. I use it like a bible! Read it!

Excellent - powerful information

Excellent book with some very thought provoking ideas about the way you create your own life. I've found this book explains things on a much simpler method than some other spiritual texts I've read. I loved CWG series for example but found the information is this book easier to understand. It's my new favorite.

The only downside is this book is divided into 2 volumes and you must purchase the second volume separately. I didn't realize this and it ended rather abruptly. No worries though, it's definitely worth it IMO. This is powerful information if applied.

I really liked the narrator also. His tone and voice seemed to really work for this type of material. I'm looking forward to V2.

Great Book

Prefer the hard copy to reference, hence the 4 stars. 5 stars for hard copy! Love the concepts! Was great to listen to in car first.
