I was highly skeptical of a series of books featuring "channeled information". How were we to know it wasn't simply made up by the author in order to sell books? Yet, when a friend lent me "Ask And It Shall Be Given" it really resonated with me. And the methods really worked. So I read another book and another! The point came, when I did not even care where this information and wisdom was coming from. It worked! Now, years later and many books later, I do believe it is channeled through Esther Hicks.

So many methods, books or lecture-series out there tell you to think positive and the universe will be yours. Some have very little practical advice, and leave you feeling more inadequate afterwards. The Abraham-Hicks material tells you how to get from where you are, to where you want to be. There are easy methods to try, and they are very effective in my opinion.

Hi Michael, Abraham is a group of entities being channeled through a woman called Esther Hicks. All of Esther's books and video's are the teachings of this group of spirit beings called (again) Abraham. Thus you get 'Abraham-Hicks'.

LeeAnn, you came to the right conclusion early on: it doesn't matter if the information is channeled or not. What matters is simply whether it is information which you find valuable and applicable.

Everyone won't necessarily find the A-H stuff resonant, but there are many teachers out there and everyone will find the one who offers the info in the energy pattern most amenable for them. Here is another teacher, teaching similar lessons in a different style: http://iliveineasyworld.com

It's an exciting time to be alive, and to be awakening!
