I, for one, found it changed my life. I was SO ready for a change and eagerly read this book - in fact, I read ahead
and finished far ahead of the others. I had just finished this book (but still attending the group) when I met a wonderful man who was real and honest and not into game playing (and for once neither was I, thanks to the book) and we celebrated our one year anniversary last month. In a week and a half we're traveling to Europe for a month. He's everything I could have wanted in a man, and yet before I read this book I wouldn't have looked at him twice. Don't get me wrong - he's very
attractive, but he wasn't my "type". You know, that almost imperceptible thing about a man that makes you attracted? Now, this book is no way going to guarantee that you will find the love of your life in a few weeks, but I guarantee that if you sincerely do this book (do all the exercises and answer all those hard questions, being really honest with yourself for maybe the first time) it WILL change you. I felt a weight being lifted as I released all those sad, sorry beliefs that I'd been
carrying around since childhood. I've recommended this book to so many women and I STILL read it now and then and find it helps me maintain new, healthy habits. Do it!! You won't be sorry :)(less) Community Reviews· 1,183 ratings · 134 reviews Start your review of 7週遇見對的人：發現真愛的吸引力法則召喚幸福的49堂練習
This book has proven to be very rewarding to me. After several unsuccessful attempts at creating a job
that I like I decided why not use this book to call in my Souljob. Although the book is geared toward finding the love of your life it actually helped me uncover many of my mistakes in jobs and new ways to approach finding "The One" job for me. The exercises are easy to make them apply to this kind of quest. It took me five months to complete the book exercises. All of which have led to me start It took me five months to complete the book exercises. All of which have led to me starting a new job in location, position and
rewards I've been seeking. You have to be willing to do the work involved to get the results you want. It isn't easy to look at our patterns, but it is so worth it. This book provides a methodical and gentle way of approaching it. Highly recommend for both searching for a job and love. Both paths bring you to a greater capacity to give and receive love in all you do. Enjoy!
I absolutely cannot stand how gimmicky this title is, but this book is excellent. It is helping me peel back the layers and seeing how I am blocking myself from really being able to have love in my life. I am barely through it and I love it already. It is also based on the Law of Attraction, which I am a huge believer of. I will update when I am finished.
I like this workbook because it focuses on 'you' not on trying to snag or capture a guy. Through easy exercises it help you to identify your triggers, work past them, identify what you want out of life in a relationship and provides affirmations to go out and have the courage to seek what your heart desires.

My therapist recommended this book to me after I'd been seeing her for about 6 months, and I trusted her suggestion since we'd had a lot of success in our sessions together. Unfortunately, all this
book has done is make me worry about whether I should be trusting my therapist's perspective. I was hopeful that despite the terrible title, the text would be more sophisticated. Instead, every trite quote you can imagine made an appearance and I think I pulled a muscle with how hard I rolled my eyes i I was hopeful that despite the terrible title, the text would be more sophisticated. Instead, every trite quote you can imagine made an appearance and I think I pulled a muscle with how hard I rolled my eyes in almost every chapter. More seriously, the encouragement of a mindset of "your soulmate is on his/her way" is extremely dangerous in my
mind, and part of the reason I harbor a lot of resentment toward Christian courting culture. The author has a serious lack of logic in what she professes as clear truth, turning instead to a mixed bag of self-help gurus, religious leaders and texts, energy healers, personal experience and feelings, universalism (think "The Secret"), and out-of-context author quotes to make her points. (It's a personal pet peeve of mine when people ask you to suspend agnosticism to try on their perspective,
which relies entirely upon accepting and surrendering to a higher power.) This book might provide the kind of self-awareness and reflection many people can't find on their own (through exercises that ultimately just repeat themselves), but I have a very difficult time putting much stock in it at all. For me, it bordered on intellectually offensive and spiritually immature. Save yourself some time and instead just practice deep breathing / meditation and see a well-trained
psychotherapist.

Period. Actually despite the hand-wavey aspect to the whole "manifesting" phenomenon there is a lot of good science that suggests this type of program can create permanent and lasting change in ones habits. The premise of this book is that through stringently honest personal inventory and focused work one can make small shifts in oneself to start attracting suitable love interests. We've all known those gals who say, "I want to meet a man who is available!" yet only date married men, right? This book is for them, and for the people (it's not just for women although the cover is a bit romance-heavy) who are twenty pounds overweight and are dreaming about meeting their soulmates as they chomp through yet another thirty romance novels. Whoops, that's me. The people, in other words who are pretty clueless about the inconsistencies of their stated desires and their actual actions. You can't get through this book without having at least a half dozen epiphanies about how your actions are netting you your current reality. What I think works is the consistency of a prescribed daily practice--a totally doable daily practice. It's not like the book is suggesting starting off with a daily two hour meditation practice like some spiritual programs do. These practices went to the heart of things: they alternatively made me scream with frustration or cry with delight. Having spent 22 years in therapy of some sort or other I was astounded how much there was yet to learn about myself. Frankly, I was traveling for four of the seven weeks and I still managed to do it daily, but I know there were days when I accomplished the lessons with less than best effort. The most successful way to do this book is in a small group to hold each other accountable. We were four in number; that's a nice round number. The result: one woman had moved in with a man (her "true" love) before the end of the program (but to be honest this woman could meet a suitable, available man on Mars); one woman met and dated and broke up with a potential mate; one of us--okay, me--decided I needed to go back into therapy to deal with my daddy issues; and the fourth lost 23 pounds and hooked up with half a dozen guys, but is no where nearer to finding what she's looking for because she stopped doing the work along the way. Life, in all its glory, interceded. I would do this program again in a heartbeat. It is a book brimming with hard questions front loaded at the beginning to create a clean slate. It is only towards the end that you get to the sweet gooey layer of fun and delicious activities. Other reviewers took exception to the "religious" overtones of the book. I was a third of the way into the book before I realized the author had been in Christian seminary. I assumed from her lack of reference to "Jesus" that she had been at a Yeshiva. What she did sling shamelessly was the afore-mentioned non-denominational language of The Big Book. Anybody who has done any kind of spiritual shopping, yoga, meditation, or any 12 Step meetings has been exposed to this form of spiritual-lite languaging, which was for the most part pretty innocuous. One reviewer was especially appalled at all the new age (and implied "putative") gurus quoted in it. Carl Jung, Mahatma Gandhi, the Dalai Lama, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Leo Tolstoy, Shakespeare, Socrates, Rilke, Matisse, Helen Keller, Nietzsche, Joseph Campbell and Rumi don't merit that kind of scorn in my book, but hey, different strokes... As much as I wanted to dislike this book I loved it, and appreciated the psychotherapeutic subterfuge in it. Doing one lesson honestly will net you the price of the book. Doing two? Watch out for change! --- An update a year later: The woman in the group who met her "one true love" told me the other day, as she was driving back from a month long stay at a Mexican cancer treatment center (her one true love turns out to have cancer) that she thinks we should all go on Goodreads and give this book ZERO stars. I asked why....and she said, "Because nobody got what they wanted out of the program, and I just got a bigger headache." Turns out the guy she ended up with is sick, broke, unemployed, and incapable of having sex; the woman who met a partner last year didn't work out and a year later she's involved with a man who's unavailable; number three moved out of the area and left her job and is no closer to meeting the one than before and me? I'm back in therapy over my daddy issues, my father has died (and actually we're having the best relationship we ever had) and still, not a date in sight. So, take it for what it's worth: this book may be fun and games, it may have profundities, but unless you are willing to do the work, and keep on doing it, it turns out not to be a life changer so much as a space waster that clogs your book shelf. ...more
A friend has been recommending this book to me for about four years now, but the title made me want to barf, so I kept ignoring her advice. Well, I guess I’m finally tired of being single, because I gave it another look. When I saw that it’s actually about healing your old issues and falling in love with yourself, not some bunch of voodoo to try to attract a man, I bought it. (I’m so done with books
telling me what fake thing to do to attract a man. No, no, and no.) I’m wrapping up week 3 right n I’m wrapping up week 3 right now, and man, this book is not for the faint of heart. The theme of this week has been healing old wounds. Even after years of therapy, this still helped me see some old stuff and the limiting beliefs I built around it, that I hadn’t ever recognized before. Healing and releasing this stuff is powerful (and exhausting and painful). I’m already
seeing the small improvements start to add up in my life. I really don’t like doing anything every single day without any days off, and this is definitely wearing on me. I so want a day off. But I’m afraid if I stop at all, I’ll just stop forever and never finish it, and it clearly is very valuable. Seven weeks still seems like a really long time, but it’s shorter than if I dragged it out! This week has really been brutal. I hear it gets easier after this; I hope so. ... Working through this book brought so many old limiting beliefs and blocks to the surface to be healed and released! It’s not for the faint on heart, but it’s so worth it. Some time around week 4, there was a day that talked about becoming the person who can be a match and
partner to the kind of person you want. “Becoming the person who can ____” seems to be the most powerful motivation for me to transform. I threw myself into it, and as a result, I launched a new program in my business—and filled it! It was 10x the results I’ve ever gotten from any launch before. It’s official: this book has changed my life. When I started, I thought I was already ready to meet my new man, but working through it has shown me just how ready I wasn’t. I was afraid of
anything too good or successful, because I was convinced it would just be snatched away from me and I’d be worse off than if everything just sucked consistently. I was afraid of having much given to me because then much would be expected of me, and I thought I couldn’t handle it. And I was terrified that, if I fell in love again, I’d forget who I was, lose myself, lose all the spiritual growth progress I’ve made, and crash my business. Oh yeah, and the guy would die, too. Yeah. It’s been
a lot. I’m actually signed up for a virtual retreat with the author next weekend. I’m so glad I signed up for that, because a) if there’s still more stuff in there holding me back, hopefully we’ll find it and clear it, and b) I’m not sure I would have finished this book at all if I wasn’t so determined to finish it before the live workshop. Update: I finished this book and attended the virtual retreat in July. It’s now October. I’ve continued vigorously pursuing personal growth and
becoming my best self. A few weeks ago, my man found me! It’s better than I even imagined. I thought this book was so stupid based on the title, but it’s worked, and so quickly! Notes: P. 119 P. 150 P. 255 “We’ve allowed the fear of not
getting what we want—of being hurt, rejected, disappointed, or abandoned—to dictate our actions, to stop us from taking risks in life, and to control our most intimate relationships.” P. 303 “In truth, not forgiving yourself while being willing to forgive others is an act of arrogance. For it is a gesture that suggests that we think we should be above the human experience.” P. 312 “As long as she didn’t ’try’ to meet him, she thought that she couldn’t be that disappointed when he
didn’t show up.” P. 313 “You want to learn how much someone has to give by watching how they show up in life. If they are consistent, do what they say they are going to do, are sensitive and considerate toward you and others; then you can open up more. If they tell you things like “I’m a commitment-phobe,” if they don’t keep their word or behave in ways that convey a disregard for your feelings and the feelings of others, then don’t open up.” Pretty simple when she puts it that
way! P. 315 “There is a big difference between playing full out in life by taking a risk that may or may not pan out, and plowing straight ahead even though you know, in your heart, that what you are doing is a mistake.” P. 318 “If you are fully engaged in being the absolute best that you can be, I guarantee you, you won’t choose an amoral, negative, and abusive person as your partner in life.” P. 319 surrender!= passivity or giving up.
Skeptical at first due to the long winded intro and disclaimers about the 'god/spirituality' references but am impressed by not only the practical guidance but the well-organized way the material is presented. Greatly helps examine one's life in a very honest but gentle way. Beautiful and inspiring outlook on becoming a better person and getting the most out of life. Highly recommended as a recharge for anyone depressed or in a funk - regardless of relationship status.

Ok- this book has been recommended to me several times throughout my life, and I finally read it. To sound extremely dramatic- this book fundamentally changed my views on dating/relationships and it’s been so nice to have some peace regarding that topic in my life. I looked forward to the daily lessons and miss them now that they’re gone.

It's about self-love and creating a space to allow for others in my life who will be as respectful of myself as I hope to be. The exercises are enlightening, as they prompt serious introspection. Reading this book has been beneficial whether or not I ever feel ready to consider having another partner. I recommend it. ...more

Katherine's work has helped me understand that a life of love is a noble and worthy life, and since discovering her, I have expanded my capacities to love and have developed myself into a more conscious, aware, and generous human being.

It will arm you with the skills and tools necessary to navigate the world from the wisest parts of yourself, and to understand love as a 24/7 job that we must be present for at all times.

Even if you don't follow the exercises step by step, this book is a great tool for learning about yourself and identifying some of your past patterns that may have prevented you from finding what you long for - not only in relationships, but the principles discussed are valid for all areas of life.

Before we go out to find love, we need to create space and the right conditions for love; as like attracts like, love can only come about if we first start with loving ourselves. This book is a true treasure, not because if we complete all the exercises we will get what we seek. This book, like anything else, is merely a tool, a key, and we still need to learn how to use it. Once you begin to really understand the issues dealth with in the book and see them in your own life, you will no longer need the exercises. :) ...but they are a great stepping stone to get you started and commit to something long enough to change old ways and patterns that have not served you well in the past. ...more

This books helps me work on myself and become a more 'whole' person, and be more open to having a loving, balanced relationship. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to improve their love life.
While the title and description seems bookish, the content is original and written in a easy to read style that I liked. It is more of a self help book than 'find your mate' book. And few things pointed in there are definitely revealing. This genre is filled with wannabe authors who write either very feminist books that seek to empower the female mind and play down the concept of companionship or are very old school. But I like Katherine's style - she is neither aggressive nor passive.

OK, I didn't always agree with the author's ideas about what was "male" energy and what was "female" energy... And
the whole goal of finding "The One"... Sigh... Coming out of 21 years of trying to make that work in a marriage that is now over (well, as soon as the courts agree...)... It's not my goal now. My goal now is to be present moment with someone else all-in, honest, emotionally brave and kind. Maybe that turns into one special forever or maybe it is polyamory... I don't really care. That That being said, I do think a lot of what the author outlines
regarding inner barriers that each of us (including myself) are probably building that keep great, loving people from finding and wanting to be with us, rings true. Work dismantling those inner barriers to love (see Rumi) is probably worth doing. Although the pace she lays out of one task each day for 49 days... seems killer. Maybe some tasks it would be okay to take two days on.
For me this book has been transformative. I have benefited from the introspective practices and meditations. I took my time to work through it, about a year and a half, rather than 7 weeks. I have recommended to several close friends and have seen their transformation as they have put in the work. The only thing I don’t like about the book is the title.
Deep soul and heart work here. Definitely gained some insight into how I think, love, operate. This book allowed me to recognize areas for growth and move into that growth space to do the work that comes with maturing. When you know better, you do better (Maya Angelou).
Fantastic book! I actually hate the title since I would recommend this book to anyone that wants a more fulfilling and happy life. Would give to many friends and loved ones as the lessons taught and the exercises are life changing and urgent for all of us.
I originally ordered this book when I had a 25% off coupon from Barnes
and Noble. A friend had been recommending it for months, and I, having been more or less ditched over the summer, was finally ready to get the hell over it. I still didn't want to buy this in a bookstore, though [one of those silly saving face moves, you know...]. I had a few failed starts to reading this, and, even when I started reading it in earnest, "seven weeks" turned into "three months". I read in fits and bursts, not h I had a few failed starts to reading this, and, even when I started reading it in earnest, "seven weeks" turned into "three months". I read in fits and bursts, not having
[making?] time to read it every morning as the author, Katherine, suggests. I didn't do all of the activities, either. In fact, I found myself losing my resolve to do much of the journaling as I got further into the book. Some of the things are bizarre to me ["Have a sensual day; light candles, play sensual music, wear sensual clothes and a sensual scent..."], but others have a more readily accepted value ["Write a list of all the situations in your current life that you feel frustrated
with. Go back through and ask yourself these questions for each entry..."]. I can't say I've attracted the love of my life yet, but I've become a much happier person in general. I don't want to attribute that to the book because I started reading it this last time shortly after moving, and a lot of things changed in my life. But I think this book is better than most (excusing all of the religious nudges throughout the lessons). She focuses on being positive and thanking your world for
whatever you have going on in your life right now. It's more of an ego-boosting book than a relationship-help book. Yay!
Took me 9 months to finish it -- I started it about a month after I started dating the current bf. In all honesty, it's hard to start this at a beginning of a relationship when everything is
super new and exciting and it feels like you don't need to really work on anything because hey, you already have it all! I love that this book, though, is not about the have and have nots wrt to boyfriends. What is is, rather, is about the have and have nots wrt to insights and self awareness. In retrospect p I love that this book, though, is not about the have and have nots wrt to boyfriends. What is is, rather, is about the have and have nots wrt to insights and self awareness. In retrospect part of what made this book such a sludge is that in these exercises you will likely uncover some not-so-very nice truths about
yourself and your perspective of things. It forced me to see where I was weak, which relationships didn't serve me, which POVs I held that were potentially toxic. And, to quote the author, change is hard. In fact, after deciding to make a change life many times gets worse before it gets better. But it does get better. And there are about 3-4 chapters which were completely boring and not applicable to me but I think it's a pretty comprehensive self help book. Relationship or not, there's
something very redeeming about coming home and having some reserved me-time for you, a book, and an exercise ahead to help uncover the mystery of the self. Highly recommended for: relationships, job searching and performance improvement, bonding with other single girlfriends :)
Well what can I say. I loved this book! I've worked through a number of books, to let go of my
feelings for my husband, and my ex-boyfriend. In 2018 I worked though the Grief Recovery Handbook. At the beginning of 2020 I worked through Conscious Uncoupling also by Katherine Woodward Thomas. And I've just finished this book.

On 15th June I worked through Lesson 30, A case for selfishness, and wrote about: what I really want from a romantic partner, what I absolutely need in an intimate
relationship, and what I absolutely will not settle for in an intimate relationship. 5 days later I received a message from a man on a dating website. We've been dating for 6 weeks, and he could possibly be "The One". I highly recommend this book, and the other two, if you are prepared to do some deep soul searching and calling in YOUR ONE. :-) Katherine Woodward Thomas, M.A., MFT is the author of the New York Times Bestseller Conscious Uncoupling: 5 Steps to Living Happily Even After which was nominated for a Books for a Better

Even for dedicated readers, it can sometimes be... “If you are operating under the illusion that you can continue to hold on to people who you know are not good for you, and still create an extraordinary life filled with love and fulfillment, then you are fooling yourself. Toxic ties cost us and they cost us big time. If you are feeling stuck in your life, look to see who or what it is that you are stuck to.” — 10 likes “Until you are able to see yourself living the life that you truly want, it will be difficult for you to create it.” — 7 likes More quotes…Welcome back.
