A big hug In a book! Its simplicity is refreshing. It delivers it's message like a conversation with a close friend. A joy to read and reread. ~ Paul Antill, Amazon
We all get caught up on chasing and thinking what is important in life.......however this book really searches for what should be important to everyone and simplifies the world. Great read. ~ Jadwiga, Amazon
A beautiful and enlightening book providing realistic daily guidance. This book has helped me profoundly! Not only will I use my new knowledge and exercises within the book today, but for the rest of my life. I’m so grateful I read this period, also at such a difficult time during lockdown due to ’covid 19’. Ian has enabled me to look within, reflect, remain calm and deal with my life plus this added situation in a collective way. An approach I may not have been able to do before reading Your Simple Path. This is a must read any time of life ! Thankyou Ian for writing this. ~ Beth Houghton, Amazon
This book is a little gem it is full of guidance and wisdom which you can use in your everyday life.You will read it again and again. Thank you to Ian for writing it. ~ Irene Wychrij, Amazon
Excellent....Honest, insightful and helpful thoughts. ~ Alastair Reynolds, Amazon
A laconic expression of guidance, for those who seek candour from Ian's life experience. I can relate to Ian's transformation, from a highly paid career to making a manifold of sacrifices, breaking free from materialism and the shackles and restraints of dogma, motivated by a higher consciousness of love. Ultimately, if you travel through life with an awareness of insight, intuition and creativity. You are innately connected to wisdom, creating a corollary of astuteness and discernment. ~ David, Amazon
I HAVE READ THIS BEAUTIFUL , WELL, WRITTEN BOOK MANY TIMES. IT IS TRULY A MAP TO ACHIEVING A PEACEFUL SIMPLE LIFE AWAY FROM THE HUSTLE AND BUSTLE OF OUR MODERN ERA. THE AUTHOR HAS EXPERIENCED THE BUSY CORPORATE WORLD AND HE REALIZED THAT HE DIDN'T RESONATE WITH IT`S GOALS ! HE SOUGHT PEACE IN HIS MIND AND WANTED TIME TO '' STOP AND STARE", TO OBSERVE NATURE AND THE SIMPLE PLEASURES OF LIFE. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS CHARMING BOOK AS AN EVERYDAY GUIDE TO ""A SIMPLE LIFE."" ~ Deanna Robinson, Amazon
Work means spending lots of time in the car so got myself the CD version of "Your Simple Path". Initially, it was a change to listening to music while driving to meetings but Ian's message came through very quickly and just made sense. I listen to the meditations first thing in the morning and when parked up for 20 minutes at lunch. You can literally feel your attitude change during the meditation. It's a lighter feeling and just makes me feel good for the rest of the day. It puts prespective into my day. I've no intension of stopping something that make me feel good! Highly recommended ~ Mark Scotland, Amazon
I have always dipped in and out of self help books but this one was different. It takes you on a journey from start to finish. Once I started to read it I didn't want to put it down until I had read it all. Ian has the extraordinary talent of explaining things so simply that it makes you wonder why we have all the stresses of life. It strips things down to show what really matters in life, what is really important in life. The lessons we learn through life are shown in a positive way. What we have is now, Ian shows through his warm and friendly style of writing that the past is in the past. A wonderful read that has certainly helped me so much. ~ Marie, Amazon
Wonderful book! After reading I feel more gratitude for all the good in life, I now find it easier to manage intrusive thoughts and to be present in my surroundings. It also helped me to let go of some difficult feelings about the past and learn forgiveness. It is written in a way that is easy to follow, without feeling pressure or becoming overwhelmed, and it feels like guidance towards a happier life and becoming kinder to yourself and others. I have given it to family members and recently a reiki client and they all find it a very helpful guidance for them too. Thank you Ian Tucker ~ Wendy Budden, Amazon
Ian really is an amazing author. His words come from the heart and are simple for us all to follow. I have read and reread the book as a reminder to follow the steps - it really will make you appreciate everything that you have in your life, right now in this moment. Thank you Ian for your beautiful words. ~ Molly Manton, Amazon
This is my go to book, when ever I see Ian's book I will always pick it up flick through and what ever page I stop at that is what I need to know for the day. It is very clear, very simple, the messages calm me I also have the cd version great for listening to when driving. I highly recommend this beautifully presented book ~ Jackie White, Amazon
When I first purchased this book I placed it on my shelf alongside some other ‘self help’ books I own. Louise Hay, Elkhart Tolle being some of the authors. Life goes on and months passed by before I opened the first page. I read it in 2 days. It made me cry and take a long hard look at my life. I thought I had put most of the things in the book into play but old habits die hard and I went back to the book a year later. This time, with a different outlook and in a different headspace, I noticed it was telling me something different than the first time I read it. It provides so many simple and effective ways to look at your life and small changes you can make to make a big difference in your life. It will be a book I refer back to many times. It means so much to me I purchased 2 copies for friends of mine and I’m already planning to gift it to someone else for their birthday. ~ Michelle P, Amazon
Excellent book...informative...thought provoking....compelling with a balanced view of life ~ Michael O, Amazon
As an wellbeing mentor, coach and spiritual counsellor for people of any faith or none, I seek out books, authors and speakers who convey universal truths in simple, applicable and accessible ways for myself and my clients. Ian and his book Your Simple Path is a modern, easy to read and apply tool for those who are curious or being called to a stripped back, fulfilling and happier life. After reading this book, I invited Ian to speak at one of my Spiritual Kitchen events and have recommended his book to many to support their journey of discovery. ~ Reverend Monica, Amazon
A lovely book that remind us of what’s important in life. Very recommended to everyone! ~ Ariadna Martin, Amazon
read Ian's book some time ago and found it's simple message very honest and grounding. Not necessarily a new message, but a very personal, dogma free account of how we can find a better way through the craziness of life. I now plan to re read it during the current challenging times and let its pages be a reminder to be more mindful, calm, accepting and kind. Thank you Ian. ~ Gem B, Amazon
A lovely book full of simple steps - it really makes you think... Also have the cd version which I play in my car. Ian’s talks and workshops follow the principles in the book and he is always a delight to listen to. Everyone should have a copy of this book. Thank you Ian ~ Maxine Thrower, Amazon

This is simply a little gem of a book. An easy and quick read, and all the better for it. If you come to this book at a challenging time in your life reading it won't be yet another energy-sapping, arduous task you have to struggle with. In it Ian Tucker lays out a step-by-step process for pushing the 'reset button' and restoring the inner peace and balance that is so necessary for us to live a happy and contented life. Full of wisdom and guidance delivered in a soft and gentle manner, it is no less effective for it. Buy a copy for yourself, buy more for your friends. This is a book you're going to want to give away. ~ Jon Ings, Amazon
If you feel lost in this world, Your Simple Path reminds you that YOU are in control of making even the smallest differences. It is written in such a way that you immediately relate to what Ian is saying in a very straight forward, humanistic and honest way. Nothing is insurmountable. You will feel a weight being lifted from your shoulders as you read it. ~ Lisa PLD, Amazon
Reading this book is akin to conversing with a dear, trusted friend. When it arrived I read it twice cover to cover then ordered copies as gifts for friends and family. It's a simple story beautifully written. ~ Sharon, Amazon

The most honest, helpful and beautifully written book I've read in ages. ~ Matt Holmes, Amazon
Just the title appealed to me. I sometimes think the human race make life so complicated and really it doesn't need to be. I have been on a personal quest to lead a simple life for a few years now and this book fit in with my ideas perfectly with some really powerful exercises to help create that simple Path. It's also an easy read which is always a plus for me. ~ S Coach, amazon
Since my wonderful husband died seven years ago I have read many self help books, most were helpful. Along with meditation my life has been fine on the surface but underneath unbearable. "Your Simple Path" is different, Ian takes you by the hand and gently guides you through . Then leaves you with a very simple but joyful basis for life, with a capital L. I now have joy in my life and thank God for leading me to this book and these meditations. My search is over there is no need for any more.The lonliness has gone. ~ Patricia Cohen, Amazon
I bought this book having discovered it on Amazon and after viewing Ian's website, The book profoundly affected me especially the "little me" chapters which I immediately related too. Having read the book several times and recommended it to others I had the opportunity to go and see Ian speak, something again I would recommend to anyone. I bought his CD to help me live The Simple Path and although I'm not perfect yet in all my undertakings with others and situations I find myself in, It helps me stop worrying (praying) for things I don't want to happen and apply the laws of attraction by being grateful for what (and who) I have in my life. Passing it on really works, its surprising how much good feeling you get back in return! ~ Steve Kimber, Amazon UK

Brilliant book. I learnt something important from it. Thank you. ~ Julian Robus
I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing this 117 page enlightening how-to on the finer points of awakening to who we really are, and celebrating it every step of the way. The author's relaxed cozy style just pulled me right into such a secure place that I could breathe and look freely at the questions in each chapter that helped me understand and enjoy just being me. I also found the personal stories to help me to gain insight and trust the process. I truly believe that simple is the best approach and that was proven to me over and over again. I would recommend this great teacher to anyone who wants to reclaim the treasure of life. Thanks Ian, I so get this. ~ Rikki Farhaman, Mystic Living Magazine

"Your Simple Path" is both amazing and intriguing! I felt that it was all my own thoughts as I was reading the first few pages, it really hit the nail on the head! It is absolutely fascinating! I couldn't put it down, it held me straight away! I now carry it with me in my purse, so that at certain moments or situations, I just pull it out and start reading it! It makes me feel better instantly, just like that! I know that might sound a little crazy but it's true! Its funny, its like the energy, the healing energy inside the book and the authors intentions affect me instantly. I believe this book has an anointing for healing, and that there is no time or space in between the sender and receiver for healing! ~ Yvonne Gangone, Goodreads USA

This book is a little treasure. ~ Mrs A Williams, Amazon
The Foreword to Your Simple Path is written by Nicholas Evans, creator of The Horse Whisperer. “Ian is one of those rare people who seem to know about who we really are and how easy it is, in a frantic world, to forget and become lost.” It’s as if in 105 pages Ian has cut through all the complexities, pros and cons of change and narrowed it down to simple steps. Or as he puts it, “A look at following our hearts and not the crowd.” True to the title of the book, Ian also writes about how he came to make his life change. He refers to the work of Carl Jung and a comparison with our lives having a morning and an afternoon, “I guess as I sat there...my life clock had just turned midday.” He acknowledges that it takes courage to follow through - “But when you step into the afternoon of your life, you just know it’s time, it’s your time…” Ian has been shortlisted for the Best Self-Help Author at this year’s Health and Happiness Magazine Awards - results out in the spring. ~ Nikki Jarman, Devon Life Magazine.

This is a great book that you will refer to many times. The author draws out the simple, yet often challenging spiritual basics and supports us with applying them into our daily lives, step by step. There are meditations on his website to support this. This is a gentle and powerful book written with experience. It strips away the illusions and draws out the joy. An uplifting and inspirational read. ~ Vanessa Tucker, Amazon USA
Having read this book and having heard Ian speak, I've decided to share this. It's well worth a read, doesn't take long but the effects ripple through your life making you re-evaluate how you look at things. ~ Phil Smith
There are so many things in this world that bog us down and keep us from living authentically and happily. For Ian Tucker he was experiencing success but realized that there was so much more to life and why he was here. In the book YOUR SIMPLE PATH he shares some of those lessons and allows us to see how we can begin to use it along our own quest. One of the big points that Ian makes is this: "What happens when you realise that there’s so much more to life than the job title, or the house that you live in, or the car that you drive, or the clothes that you wear, or even what other people think of you (especially what other people think of you)." This reminds us that it's not how others see us. It's all about how we see ourselves and who we are. This means we have to be willing to let down our ego and really be honest with ourselves: who we are and where we want to go. Then there is this question that Ian poses: "Does your happiness depend on something that may or may not happen in the future?" If it does, he makes this jolting declaration: "If so, you are basing your peace of mind on absolute uncertainty, not a great platform or foundation for inner peace. It begins to sound like a lottery and we all know the odds on a lottery win!" This shows us that we have to be so careful where we put our trust and how we choose to live each day. It does no good to worry, because as Ian reminds us "worrying is like praying for something you don’t want." We have to walk by faith and realize the possibilities ahead of us. If we are ready to bring peace and happiness into our worlds then we can truly find the simple path and follow it towards our destiny. ~ Cyrus Webb, Amazon US
Beautifully written book with a lot of heart, and yet also quite obviously very cleverly laid out and formatted in the perfect way to follow the message, understand the principles, and adopt the strategies. Perfect mix of heart and mind. My interest and enjoyment came from seeing how each section was laid out, interspersed with simple pages carrying the most simple and clear cut messages to ponder. However, my breakthrough moment in understanding the power of the book, came from actually doing one of the "heart drawing" exercises. I decided to do it as an actual "test". I reckoned that I already knew the answer that would come out of the experiment (this is the word(s) that start to appear larger/bolder than the rest of words listed), and therefore I deliberately manufactured the *experiment* to see if the *right* result would pop up. Sure enough the answer I guessed did start to appear. However, it was very quickly followed by another of the phrases growing more and more starker. It then reached the point that this particular phrase was shouting itself as the *real* answer. I was surprised by this, but the more and more I pondered and truthfully searched, it became obvious that this insight was the real source of the question laid out. That moment was a very real eye opener and demonstration of the power contained within the concepts and exercises that Ian lays out. And all of that came BEFORE collecting the separate meditation tracks that are referenced in the book. So, goodness knows what other surprises and insights are going to appear next! ~ Richard Swan, Scotland., Amazon UK
What a wonderful book! I have read many self help/mindfulness books but this one has to be the one that had the most positive effect on me and so soon after starting the book. I felt a definite shift just a few chapters in. Ian's belief is so simple to follow and the book is written with care as if he is an old friend sharing a secret. As the title suggests, it is a simple path to follow to find inner peace; forgive and be grateful and peace will come. In a short space of time my negativity was replaced by positivity and I felt at peace with life. It gave me a really warm fuzzy feeling inside which I just want to share with others. I can't wait to attend one of Ian's workshops now and hear him speak. ~ Carol Ratcliffe, Amazon UK
Brilliant from the title to the very last line. Just the title appealed to me. I sometimes think the human race make life so complicated and really it doesn't need to be. I have been on a personal quest to lead a simple life for a few years now and this book fit in with my ideas perfectly with some really powerful exercises to help create that simple Path. It's also an easy read which is always a plus for me. ~ Wendy Tomlinson, Amazon UK
I loved Ian's approach in Your Simple Path. it's really 'a pointe.' ~ Joe H., Goodreads
This book is an easy read. It convinces without bullying. It makes achieving inner peace seem as simple as deciding to. Thoroughly recommended. Five stars. ~ Karrie, Amazon UK
My first purchase of a book of this nature and i was very pleasantly surprised by the approach and delivery of the authors message. Not in anyway unrealistic with regards to advice on small changes suggested to everyday attitudes and general approach to life which should lead to a healthier and happier mental well being! The personal references by Ian really bring a sense of perception to the book and make it an enjoyable and rewarding read, very highly recommended ! ~ Steve Waldron, Amazon UK
I picked up Your Simple Path during quite a dark time in my life and I have to say it was extremely helpful. I've read other personal development books in the past that focus on things like creating a life plan, getting motivated, building confidence and so on but they don't really address the issue of happiness and finding purpose in life. Your Simple Path offers a really straightforward daily practice that gets you out of your head, out of your problems and in to actions that can have a profound affect on your life. I've been following Ian's advice for around 4 months and I've noticed a big difference in how I feel. Would really recommend it. ~ Mr D Strachan, Amazon UK
Feeling blessed! Having just read this book I now truly feel that I am starting to live my life just like the book says. I have done a few of the things mentioned in the book already and true enough good things happened. ~ Mrs Allison Turner, Amazon UK
Put simply, this book is brilliant! A straight forward and practical way of re- evaluating our busy and hectic lives, and finding the true meaning of being peaceful and happy. The author asks us to consider what is really important to us, and offers steps to appreciate and find it. ~ Vate P., Amazon UK
"An excellent book, very thought provoking." ~ Clive Lawson, Amazon UK
Everything Ian says resonates with me. We have a choice to be positive but Ian makes you realise how negative we have become and how Simple it is to change your perspective. I met him and he comes across as a genuine human being with good in his heart. If you want to see " Your simple Path " in front of you, do read this book. Highly recommended. ~ Ms J Round, Amazon UK
This is a marvelous book - bringing the Reiki principles into the 21st century and much, much more. For anyone even vaguely interested in improving their life, it's a "must read." It's full of really useful, simple exercises to improve the quality of your life. The author is also a wonderful speaker, so if you get the chance to see him, I recommend you do. ~ Miss A Millington, Amazon UK
Great book, very simple, quick to read for those who don't like big books. Very easy exercises to do with great results and a refreshing reminder of what's important and what isn't in life. You can also access great meditations. I enjoyed it and found it useful. Whether you're new to this type of message or looking for reminders this book is lovely. ~ Julia Smith, Amazon UK
A 5 * book and I recommend his talks they are also 5*!! I have been to see Ian Tucker talk, he is a genuine honest person who has chosen to share simple techniques that go a long way to assist the recall of what our divine selves knows to be true. ~ Antonia F, Amazon UK
What an inspirational book! I have used this simple path to pull me out of the darkest moments of dredded anxiety and uncertainty, and I know that this book will change many many lives, all around the world.

Ian's book Your Simple Path is a collection of stories and suggestions to explore, live and incorporate the simple path into your own life. Ian has a wonderful way for every one to discover their own true path. In this book he shows that is possible for all of us to incorporate his simple and easy to follow suggestions in our own daily routines. I highly recommend this book which is also laced with Ian's personal stories. ~ Mr Leon Aarts, Amazon UK
I loved “Your Simple Path.” It reveals a very gentle, down to earth way to find happiness with each step we take in life. Ian Tucker is a charming writer, and his sweet style mirrors the lovely simplicity of his teachings. His focus is on such usually overlooked things such as letting go of worry and regret, and the value of honesty, kindness and giving to others. And he includes some simple exercises to help us daily go deeper into the four essential steps on this path, namely forgiveness, gratitude, peace and freedom. I especially appreciated his focus on the higher self, and the value of daily periods of silence. He also includes links to a website where we can find recordings of guided meditations, which are combined with gorgeous music. Ian Tucker is gently teaching us the secrets to leading a happy life in a world gone mad. What could be more precious than that? I send him a hug and give this book my warmest recommendation. ~ Ram Das Batchelder , Amazon USA
If you want to experience the joy of being a vibrant and happy human being, If you want to connect in some way with this great mystery that is the Universe, If you want to discover the essence that is yourself and say hello, If you want to be free, If you want peace, If you want....... then read this beautifully written, simple book. It will touch your heart and set you in the right direction to becoming a truly functional being that this beautiful but crazy world is crying out for. ~ Mr Bob Coleman, Amazon UK
A wonderful book written by an inspirational author, who looked beyond the noise of today to showcase the peace and tranquility of tomorrow and beyond. An incredibly simple yet (frustratingly with hindsight ) clear way of looking at life, this book will give anyone a wonderful point of reference when the chaos all around can become all too consuming. I would urge you, your friends and your network to share Ian's message, learn to let go of all of those things that hold you back from happiness and embrace all of the learnings you can take on board ~ Tracey Geralds, Amazon UK

A truly wonderful self help book. One that you will want to recommend to others. ~ Janine Doidge, Amazon UK
Sometimes, overthinking life and your role in it can completely overwhelm you and drain you, its sometimes easy to feel stuck and start to believe you cant change anything. But the simple reality is, you can change everything with just one thought, one realisation. This is why Ian's book is so special. It is a down to earth gentle look in the mirror at the core of what makes us all tick. It is a subtle reminder of what we are all about, of how we are the ones responsible for how we think and feel. Our happiness is our responsibility, not anyone elses. This book helps you to realise that we are the sole creator of all of our thoughts, actions and ultimately our pathway in life. I read this book siting on a beach in Cornwall and found myself feeling uplifted, motivated and light after the first few pages. His down to earth way of writing makes it easy for you to explore and understand your own thought processes. He helps you to realise how simple it is to regain some calm and peace into your life simply by changing how you choose to perceive and think about things. You realise that the more healthy wholesome helpful thoughts you create, the better you are going to feel. As soon as I closed the book, I was smiling and will felt uplifted and inspired . Thank you Ian for sharing your words. Looking forward to more. Inspiring, encouraging, comforting and uplifting. Highly recommend ! ~ Lisa, Amazon UK
I don't normally review on Amazon, but this book has me. It seems to have a calm, peaceful energy all of it's own. This may sound crazy but I carry it with me, if I have a problem then I dip in, and it's as if the passage or line that I read is just what I need. I'm not sure I sign up to fate, but what I do know is that Your Simple Path showed up at just the right time, the only downside is that it seems to be the only book by this author ... ~ Roachford, New York., Amazon.
This book started my spiritual awakening. Fate manifested it for me and I listened and learned. It is written in a soft tone so a wonderful start on to the path of enlightened living. Create your own fate and buy it. It will change your life for the better. Everyone should read this book. ~ Gerald J Dupuis, Amazon UK
Very useful! What really made this book hit home is the fact it's written by someone who's lived the real corporate world and so many people like myself will relate and benefit reading this. ~ Mt Kam Dhatt, Amazon UK
Self help made easy, I now recommend this book to all of my friends and clients. ~ David Daniels, Amazon UK
A fantastic book by Ian Tucker... to simplify is the key to a happy and content life. ~ Nick bellamy, Amazon UK
As I'm not much of a writer myself this will be a short review..... So in short this book is very inspiring, after being a salesman myself for many years I can relate to many of the points in this book. The way that Ian writes connects with me and keeps me glued from start to finish. The book has made me look at life in a different way and has made stop and look at what truly matters and not to be so selfish in life. I can't wait for the next instalment from Ian......... ~ Andy Green, Amazon UK
This book has helped changed my life. Its style is simple but profound. I have both the book and the kindle version and look at them often when I am feeling down. As someone who has suffered severe anxiety and depression since childhood I have found this book is the best medication there is. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. ~ Rosie C, Amazon UK
This is definitely a must read. I have know Ian for some time and attended a number of his workshops, this book is written from the heart and is truly inspirational. ~ John England, Amazon UK
A nice relaxing easy to read self help book, I also ordered the CD to go with it and starting to build these mind exercises into my daily activities, I am already feeling more peaceful and positive! ~ Katrina Knott, Amazon UK
This is a wonderfully inspiring and moving book, it so vividly the describes the journey of awakening and the considerations, fears and obstacles with which we are faced when we begin to have the courage to follow our true paths. Ian illuminates this transition in an autobiographical style which everybody will be able to see themselves in. The second section of the book is a gem of exercises, meditations and snippets of wisdom....the kind of stuff that you want to have at hand at all times. Fortunately this book will fit into a medium sized handbag so you need never be too far from it and it's calming truths and soulful reminders. As for the author well you only have to be in the same room as him to feel inspired. He emanates warmth, goodness and humility. His talks are enlightening, comforting and full of hope. I recommend that everybody has a copy of this beautiful book in their home and also that if you get the chance to go and see one of Ian Tucker's talks, workshops, or reiki teaching make sure you DO!! You will walk away with a light heart, a bounce in your step and the desire to hug and heal everybody you see ♥ ~ Joelle O'Toole, Amazon UK
A profound book that change's your life with a few simple steps. Ian's clear and concise way of writing draws you in, empowering you to live a life full of happiness and contentment. ~ Jean Foster, Amazon UK
I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing this 117 page enlightening how-to on the finer points of awakening to who we really are, and celebrating it every step of the way. The author's relaxed cozy style just pulled me right into such a secure place that I could breathe and look freely at the questions in each chapter that helped me understand and enjoy just being me. I also found the personal stories to help me to gain insight and trust the process. I truly believe that simple is the best approach and that was proven to me over and over again. I would recommend this great teacher to anyone who wants to reclaim the treasure of life. Thanks Ian, I so get this. ~ Riki Frahmann, Mystic living magazine
A simply lovely book. So Inspiring. ~ Mary Free, Amazon UK
I read Your Simple Path in one session, then immediately re-read it. It is a beautifully written book. Very simple, but so instructive. Ian came across as a really authentic guy. I have since heard him speak about his journey and his book and came away from that talk very touched by his honesty and humility. This is a path within everyone's reach and if you want to make changes in your life this would be a great starting point. Go for it! ~ J Mexson, Amazon UK
"A truly beautiful book." ~ Alpa Mavadia, Author Facebook page
I enjoyed this because of its simplicity " it does what it says on the cover" the simple path, the meditations were good too, which you can get on you tube. ~ Lynne O'connor, Goodreads
How many times do we start to read a book about self improvement or happiness and then give up due to time consuming exercises or commitments we cannot fulfil or a writing style that is pompous or over intense? I suggest a lot due to the amount of self help books and consciousness books available. This book is a wee gem that is not over long, never boring and very well written with an honest and open style. The author tells us of his own life and his decisions but never in a preachy way. you can tell he respects his reader. with this respect comes an understanding that circumstances can affect our commitment to well being and therefore the need for a straightforward and accessible 'plan' to achieve contentment and happiness .and this he delivers! I was happy to see that most of it I do anyway as part of living a contented and happy life. the wee reminders of why were good for me though. Simple does not mean silly or not intelligent. it means uncomplicated and straightforward. This wee book delivers. ~ Colette Brown, Amazon UK
Just finished reading Your Simple Path. Truly brilliant, this is what they should be teaching in schools. I discovered this book at the perfect time in my life. Thank you. ~ Karen Burgess, Facebook Author Page
I loved this book because it is so easy to read, Ian has shown how easy it can be to start a simple path. ~ Elle, Amazon UK
Fantastic book, excellent guide lines which are simple to follow, easy to understand and can be life changing! Best book l have ever purchased. ~ Lyn, Amazon, UK
Ian has an easy to read writing style. He just tells it as it is. This isn't 'rocket science'. It is a straight forward common sense approach to making your life easier. He shares some of his own experiences as examples. He shows that sometimes as human beings our ego can get in the way and make life more difficult than it needs to be. However if you follow his reasoning you too will see his ideas make sense and could make a difference to your life so go on give it a read. ~ Brian Lancaster, Amazon UK
A wonderful book! A delightful way to gain personal insight, to regain balance and inner peace. I loved the book so much I have bought it for my son and other friends. ~ Auriel, Amazon
A great and inspirational read. Some great ideas to implement in my life. Starting to notice the difference after only a couple of days. ~ Anneka Vriesema, Goodreads
Since my wonderful husband died seven years ago I have read many self help books, most were helpful. Along with meditation my life has been fine on the surface but underneath unbearable. "Your Simple Path" is different, Ian takes you by the hand and gently guides you through . Then leaves you with a very simple but joyful basis for life, with a capital L. I now have joy in my life and thank God for leading me to this book and these meditations. My search is over there is no need for any more.The lonliness has gone. ~ Patricia Cohen, Amazon UK
I read this book in a day but shall cherish it for life. A book beautiful in its simplicity and easy to follow. I felt a subtle shift in myself whilst reading it and I knew immediately that I could trust Ian's wisdom. Awesome reading, Your Simple Path helped me to understand life and how to find happiness in simple things. What an inspirational book! If you live a busy life I strongly recommend you take time out to read it. This is an absolutely amazing and intriguing book! From the opening chapter I couldn’t put it down, it held me straight away! I now carry it with me and if I feel anxious I take it out and start reading it. It makes me feel better instantly, just like that! I know that might sound a little crazy but it’s true.It’s as if the energy, the healing energy inside the book lifts me instantly. I keep this special little book very close. Depression had control over me for many years, but whilst reading Your Simple Path I began simplifying my life and it has helped me enormously. ~ Recent reader reviews, Amazon
I like these types of books regarding peace and happiness but don't normally give them a great deal of credit. You could say I am a bit cynical but this took me by surprise. It was such a simple book and wasn't full of things you have to do to change your life it seemed that it gave a new outlook. It came to me at a rather tiring time and I have to say I feel so much better and more open to the changes. ~ Carol Peace, Goodreads
I really enjoyed this book. Yes it's simple, yes there's not much to it, but that's the beauty of it. Ian Tucker's writing really resonated with me. It was warm and from the heart, something I find lacking from many authors nowadays. I appreciate that many people didn't rate it, and felt they should be told more, but this is a personal journey book, you take from it what you need. It's not designed to tell you what to think, or to give you the answer to life, the universe and everything, it is just there to make you stop and think about what is really important to you. There's one message that comes through this book, treat others as you would like them to treat you. That is the simple path. There must be something to it, as that's the same lesson that pretty much all the major religions try to teach, they just had bigger books. So to sum up, this book doesn't preach, doesn't judge, or tell you what to do, it just gives a little reflection space, let's you know that you're doing ok really, then gives some tools to help keep you going, whatever your faith, belief (or lack thereof), or background. ~ Jim, Goodreads
This book is an excellent read, I would highly recommend it to anyone. This whole experience was pleasurable from the timely delivery of the book to reading the book itself......love it..... ~ D K Wilson, Amazon UK
Your Simple Path is not a book i would normally reads. However i found the book very interesting and read through it in a matters of days! The book Your Simple Path gave me a positive outlook and genuinely feel that others who read it will also feel the same.. The book challenges us to think about our own experiences and how we lead our lives!! ~ Kim Sly, Goodreads
I am a profoundly deaf mum with 3 hearing children aged 5, 3 and 9 months. My husband is disabled and is due to have 2 major spinal operations. Life had been very difficult and I had reached a point where I thought it would never get better. Life was so tough and so overwhelming that not only had I forgotten how to live but also how to breathe. I have never bought or read a self help book before but I am so glad that it was Ian's book that I decided to try. It is a gentle, calm and honest book, much how I expect Ian himself to be, although I have never met him. The book takes you gently by the hand and leads you on a journey of self discovery, neither preaching nor judging, but leads you along the path of forgiveness, gratitude and finally to peace, an inner peace deep within ourselves that has been there all along waiting for us to reclaim it. It is beautiful in its simplicity and it is easy to follow. I felt a subtle shift in myself whilst reading it and I knew immediately that I could trust Ian's wisdom. The result is as Ian describes, inner peace and most importantly freedom, from all the constraints we place upon ourselves which affect our well-being, our heart and our relationships. What especially touched me is that Ian not only believes wholeheartedly in what he has written but he lives by it too. I emailed him whilst reading the book to ask if he could provide a transcript for his meditation cd as I would not be able to hear it. This he provided by return email the following day. I then emailed him for some guidance on a particular problem I was experiencing, hoping that he may have touched on something similar in one of his workshops. Yet again he personally replied the following day with a lengthy, kind, detailed email that completely set my mind at rest. I have nothing but praise for Ian and his book and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone who has lost sight of what is really important in life. ~ Mikey, Amazon UK
I found this to be a book well worth investing in. Ian writes very well and with a lot of wisdom. I have been on a Spiritual Path for a few years and Ian has helped me in my journey. The only criticism I have is that he refers you to go to his website for various meditations but you have to purchase them as an extra. Other than that Your Simple Path is a book to dip into whenever the need arises after the initial full read. ~ Fiona Young, Amazon UK
Awesome reading, helped me to understand life and how to find happiness in simple things in life-steps that I wish I would have had years ago as it may have lead me down a different path in my life. ~ Dave Darlene, Amazon USA
'Your Simple Path' is a gentle and easy read, written with wisdom and compassion. It challenges us to ask ourselves very simple questions about how we lead our lives. Reflection on these questions encourages action towards a happier and more compassionate life. ~ Julian, Amazon Uk
I am not normally the target audience for self help books, being relatively satisfied with my lot and not particularly in search of anything "more". However I read this after a recommendation, and I am enormously glad I did. The author uses personal experience to convey his message and this makes the book all the more accessible for it. One really feels the book has been somewhat a labour of love and not in any way an attempt at making money. I flew through My Simple Path in a matter of hours and feel it has genuinely shifted my day to day approach to life. I hope it leaves others with as positive an outlook as it did me, and all being well this won't be the last we hear from Ian Tucker! ~ Mr T Jones, Amazon UK
This is a lovely book.i had begun the journey Ian talks about, however had got so far,then stopped.i now feel this was for good reason and am once more moving forward,encouraged that all is as it should be.read this for yourself,it is very uplifting to know you are not alone. ~ Miss C Williams, Amazon UK
I would say that this is a lovely gentle work that removes the need for further self guilt or doubt, it neither preaches nor demands, it simply says there are other ways worth looking at things, it allows us to gently consider the patterns that we create in our life and decide if they truely serve us or any purpose. It helps us to deal with things that may not sit well, and mostly it gives a warm and sunny feeling, we are important, what we think and feel is important, and if by chance we realise that we have been unkind to ourself or others, it allows us to begin to re-balance without feeling a failure to begin with. Your Simple Path is an excellent piece of work, nicely written with actual ways to help us help ourselves, sometimes the most simple things are the most important. No matter your views this is well worth a read, and as you change or life changes many parts of this work will become more or less relevant, but always useful. I would highly recommend this work, as a therapist and healer I can see the advantages of more people making use of the information within.. ~ Angela, Amazon UK
Easy read, Powerful words Your simple path reveals an approach to living that makes sense without the dogma. Calming yet powerful. Nothing we all don't know but presented in a a way we all can follow. ~ Kylie T, Amazon US
Our guest speaker for June was Ian Tucker, whose book "Your Simple Path" went international this week and went straight in to No. 1 on the Amazon new release list. Having heard Ian's talk it is perfectly understandable why it reached that position. Ian's approach is simple, so easy to understand and follow and many of those present will have gone away and started using what he had taught us. Ian held us enthralled throughout. He is a truly genuine guy, who showed great humility - something which was commented on afterwards by a number of those who attended. He touched our hearts and he also tugged at our heart strings! It was a powerful talk by a gentle man and one we will remember for a long time. Ian's aim is to bring calm to a crazy world. It certainly worked for us! ~ Solihull Natural Health Group, SNHG website
“I’m still looking for the right words to describe the talk that Ian Tucker gave on Wednesday at Lily May Wellbeing. To describe ‘Your Simple Path’ as uplifting and inspiring doesn’t really do it any justice! A must hear and see for all. Very ‘simple’ yet so powerful.” Natasha Robinson, Director at Lily May Wellbeing ~ Natasha Robinson, Facebook
We met Ian last night at his talk in Birmingham. Watch this space. He is humble, articulate, funny, and knows his material. How he has overcome his recent life experiences is worth the admission alone. Ian radiates integrity and is in the mold of Eckhart Tolle and Wayne Dyer, i.e. he walks his talk and has let go of his ego. A refreshing, captivating breath of fresh air in this era of 'spiritual celebrity.' Go see him. Jack Stewart, The Healing Codes, UK. ~ Jack Stewart, Facebook
