Everyone has burning questions. Everyone wants to find answers.

Author Nancy Vedder-Shults, Ph.D., presents readers with information so they can select a technique based on what appeals to them in the moment, a technique that dovetails with their intuitive strength (kinesthetic, auditory, visual), or simply work their way through all the techniques for fun and self-awareness.
