Book Review: Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender




Book Review:  Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender by David R. Hawkins, MD, PhD

Reviewed By:  April Morris

It was a blessing to have the opportunity to review Letting Go by Dr. David R. Hawkins.  This is an area of my life that I have been working on with varying results.  Surrender can be a difficult concept for some of us to grasp.  I found this book to be an excellent resource to help with all aspects of life from the physical to spiritual. 

In this book, Dr. Hawkins guides you through the different emotions that we experience beginning with apathy and depression and ending with love and peace.  As he dissects each emotion, he provides ways to overcome the negatives and arrive at a positive result.  This book helps one see what is truly important in life and shows that our upsets and disappointments are due to expectations that we carry with us. 

Dr. Hawkins covers the connection between the mind and body.  He outlines ways to combat stress and alleviate physical illness.  The remaining sections of the book discuss the attainment of vocational goals and the impact that those goals have on one’s life.  He not only defines what we need to let go of, but he offers easy to apply strategies and solutions for surrender.

Reading this book and applying the strategies has allowed me to live a more positive life.  I use the concepts of surrender on a daily basis and have found that I have less anxiety and stress.  I plan on re-reading this book several times as I feel there is so much useful information to learn about and apply.
