The Gift: 12 Lessons to Save Your Life by Edith Eva Eger
4.0
“as an Auchwitz survivor, I am here to fell you that the worst prison is not the one the Nazis put me in. The worst prison is the one I built for myself.”
Dr. Edith Eger does it again! If I could have lunch with one person, dead or alive, she would be extremely high on my list. Her other book, The Choice, was one of the greatest books I’ve read – truly a page-turner that I couldn’t put down and gave me so many insightful thoughts to dwell on. I love hearing about her experiences in Auchwitz coupled with her pure determination to survive and how she now relates that part of her life to her clinical psychology practice. Nearly every sentence in this book is quote worthy and I find myself scribbling them down hoping to remember them later and apply them in my own life. We all have lessons to learn from this great woman.
