Reviews
Empower Yourself at Work is not a standard book. When you take it in your hands, you start reading it and you understand that you can work with it. It is instructive about our life and our daily lives.
It contains wisdom and love that are channeled through its exercises that teach us to make the best choices for ourselves. This manual helps us to find our inner goals by following its steps.
At the end of the book you will have a clearer view on your future, of how you see yourself.
Personally, I really liked the story with the cocoon and the butterfly as a metaphor for how life teaches us to be patient and work with ourselves for the changes to come.

In Empower Yourself at Work Hélène touches your inner core and teaches you how your higher Self can guide you in life. No matter what is happening around you, I now know that I can always return to that safe, inner place.

Empower Yourself at Work also offers recognition and inspiration for less conventional work relationships, such as in the O.R. (hospital).
This book has the potential to transform your own "I" into a source of energy in your daily work environment.
