Publisher's summary

With five unique tools that take only three seconds each to use, you, too, can achieve a lifetime of fulfilment.

Can you imagine what your life would be like if you could tap into a new source of power - one that has been inside you all along - to solve your own problems and become the master of your life? The Tools is an extraordinary psychological model based on the proven methods of Hollywood's greatest psychotherapists.

Phil Stutz and Barry Michels have over 60 years of psychotherapeutic experience between them. Together they have helped their A-list clients work through whatever has held them back - be it insecurity, trauma, anger, lack of willpower, negativity or avoidance - and achieve their greatest work and find a deep level of fulfilment.

Now, at last, the acclaimed clinicians are sharing their methods in this eye-opening and empowering book. Introducing their five simple techniques - namely, The Reversal of Desire, Active Love, Inner Authority, The Grateful Flow and Jeopardy - the authors clearly explain what they are and how and when to use them. Astonishingly effective and beautifully simple (once you've learned a tool it takes only three to five seconds to use it), this book will give you everything you need to propel yourself forward to achieve your ambitions and be who you were born to be.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Critic reviews

"Barry Michels and Phil Stutz are profoundly talented guides to the inner workings of the psyche. The Tools is breakthrough material that ignites your own capacity to transform your life." (Marianne Williamson)

"Hollywood's 'open secret'" (The New Yorker)

"The clear, user-friendly approach plus a belief that ‘the power of higher forces is absolutely real’ is a winning combination. Here is the rare self-help book that doesn’t end with the self." (Publishers Weekly)

I cannot thank you enough

🤔I know this will work
Without a doubt
It seems so clear at time
Then gone while I’m listening
I find myself going straight to jeopardy
Inspired
I will listen until it becomes part of me

Then I’ll forget and think it was me, crash, return
The pain is going to be wonderful 🤘😘❤️

Mind blowing, interpretation of spirituality

I have been a spiritual person for as long as I can remember but I never would have guessed this is where this book would ultimately take me. I was very interested in the therapy side and intrigued with Phil Stutz and but his methodology for bending the universe to work with you was amazing and so unexpected. Great work guys.

Tools in action

I watched a documentary on the tools and wanted to listen to the book to understand how I could integrate them into my life. I am happy to say I have seen an improvement in how I approach different situations using the tools. Thank you.
