“Cohen’s book will speak to a specific group of people who are open-minded and willing to try alternative therapy methods. It is beautifully and clearly written with vivid metaphors, examples, anecdotes, and imagery. …This book is very helpful in giving clearly laid out plans for deconstructing one’s negative thought processes and self-reflection.

Cohen is well-read and eloquent; her prose flows easily, and the brief, anecdotal stories presented to the reader are vibrant and drop the reader momentarily into that world. …

Cohen’s book is uniquely informed through her personal experiences and education. … Many self-help books can ramble and be without a clear process to follow, but hers is built upon clear and simple scaffolding.”

Excerpt from Critics Report written by The BookLife Prize:

“A well thought out and well written book, the author gives the reader a solid road map to self understanding. This is intelligently written and shows there is a lifetime of experience behind this wise material. This book will become a treasure trove of useful guidance on any spiritual seeker’s bookshelf!”

“Amazing Processes Plus Inspired Reading:

I just finished Your Life Is Designed to Work. Absolutely beautiful and mind blowing! There is so much beauty in the human and spiritual understanding revealed by this book. It spans the gamut between being supremely practical and divinely inspired, offering powerful step-by-step processes for evolving in all key areas. This is one of the most helpful books I’ve ever read.

Dr. Cohen ties together psychological health and development, and alignment with Source, in a brilliant and comprehensive way that makes complete sense. But not until this book have these elements been put together in such a beautiful and comprehensive way, like puzzle pieces snapping together. By the end of the book, I was more convinced than ever that life is designed to work!”

“Dr. Jane Ilene Cohen’s Your Life Is Designed to Work is a book of considerable scope and depth. It delivers a message of great hope and affirmation.

This is no textbook. Nor is it a sermon. Rather, the author’s language has a direct and personal feel, an informality that gives the reader an unwavering sense that Dr. Cohen is speaking directly and personally from her real hard-won life experience.

As its subtitle suggests, this book has a strong spiritual theme. As an unregenerate skeptic about such matters, I thought that I might have some trouble with all this. Fortunately, I was completely and surprisingly wrong.

What I began to realize, as I worked my way along, is that what she is communicating is what I might describe as an absolute trust, a radical faith in life itself. Life is never a dead end. There is always a positive way forward. By the end of the book, I found myself feeling encouraged, supported, even perhaps loved. This book is a gift.”

“Shared Insights of a Master!

I have had the pleasure of working with Jane as a client and student of Life is Designed to Work over more than a decade since I had first met her, and was delighted to read this refined work! Jane is a master of her craft and shares with you here the insights that come only from such mastery! Thank you Jane for sharing your divinely inspired purpose!”

“Best self help book I’ve read in years:

I can’t praise this book enough. I love the way it is written with the first half emphasizing the psychological and identifying how and why we make limiting decisions in our lives and the second half emphasizing the spiritual and how we can identify with a true reality as opposed to the one we’ve created based on our limiting decisions. Pages 80-90 are like a gold mine leading to the discovery of our buried decisions. It’s a process that I will return to again and again as thankfully, growth is ever-expanding.”

“A book worth your Time:

Jane’s title alone carries an important message for our times. This book is written in a clear, well-written and practical manner. It has a lot to offer us. One of her salient points is that “life is for us.” In this time of great worldwide tumult , wouldn’t it be great if more of us reached inside for our own truth. Consider letting this uplifting book help you with your next steps.”

“Ever think that day-to-day living shouldn’t be so hard? Then I’ve got a book for you. Your Life is Designed to Work offers readers spirited self-help and fearless personal narrative from Jane Cohen, a San Diego counselor. It was published recently on Amazon. Cohen’s work ‘guides you to an in-depth understanding and experience of the positive way life actually works,’ as Amazon says.”
