Publisher Description
“The most powerful spiritual healer, fixer, teacher on the planet.” —Oprah Winfrey
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author and beloved host of Iyanla: Fix My Life comes a transformational guide to love, healing, and personal growth.
Are you stuck in a relationship rut? Longing for love but unsure how to find it—or hold onto it? You may be living in the meantime—that confusing, painful space between heartbreak and healing, desire and fulfillment.
In this powerful and compassionate guide, Iyanla Vanzant shows how the chaos of our lives and relationships often stems from unhealed wounds, outdated beliefs, and emotional clutter. Using the metaphor of a house in need of deep cleaning, she helps you uncover and release the fears, patterns, and past hurts that block the light of love from shining in.
With spiritual wisdom, practical tools, and straight-talking honesty, In the Meantime will help you:
Understand why love isn’t working—and what to do about it
Break free from old emotional habits
Rediscover your self-worth and purpose
Prepare your heart, mind, and life for the love you deserve
Whether you’re single, struggling in a relationship, or simply seeking peace, this timeless book will guide you out of confusion and into clarity, where authentic love can finally take root.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A prolific writer in the self-help field whose spiritual guidance is frequently aimed at African American women (Acts of Faith: Daily Meditations for People of Color) outlines a program for those unsuccessfully searching for a relationship. Vanzant's main point is that before looking for a partner, it is necessary to find completion within yourself. She offers useful, though hardly original, advice on how to achieve this through learning to love yourself, acknowledging and expressing your feelings and not expecting others to provide you with happiness. Vanzant's program for self-improvement is presented through a house-cleaning analogy that occasionally grows strained whereby one progresses from basement to attic in a series of steps that begin with becoming aware of personal problems and learning how to solve them. When the "attic" is finally reached after a lot of hard work, according to the author, you will be able to love God, yourself and others unconditionally, and only then will you be ready for a deep relationship with another person.
