Wise advice, though too view pages & words too big, making it so quick a read

I was given this book by a friend and colleague to read after viewing the film based off of first book, Way of the Peaceful Warrior. The movie was life changing and so reading this book for further analysis is quite helpful but it's so good so for that I'm willing to back track and read the first book after I finish this book despite the fact that I've seen the movie. I don't want to miss anything as I continue in Dan Millman's series of books upon the Peaceful Warrior in all of us.

An expanded philosophy of a Peaceful Warrior written in a readable form as I am used to with Millman. After a long time since reading The Way of the Peaceful Warrior, it was important for me to remember these thoughts.

Skimmed, enjoyed the review.

Should be titled Regurgitation of The Peaceful Warrior. Not so much a "companion" as it is a breakdown of what the original book was about. Some nice quotes in it, but really a useless book.

Another great bbok...

A good companion to the way of the peaceful warrior <3

I haven't read the previous book so the format was a bit strange but actually turned out to be quite refreshing as I read on.
Excellent teachings in a condensed form, will definitely return to reread this and check out Millman's related books!
Very good!!!

This is a book to put to use, not to peruse. Using what it explains will take the book off of the shelf, and you into the life you are meant to live.

A very good chance to relive the awesome story that is 'Way of the Peaceful', but with a handbook-like approach. A good read if you enjoyed Way of the Peaceful Warrior.

Dan Millman comes to me always in special moments. This time wasn't different. After the 'Way of the peaceful warrior', I already knew I want to read his next books as well. After couple of months, I dived into 'The Journeys of Socrates' which was way different than his first book. Normally I would be just disappointed and put it back on the shelf after not being fascinated by first pages or chapters so I did put it back on the shelf but rather thinking that the timing is just not good. I will try again maybe next month, or next year, we'll see. Going back to 'Wisdom of the Peaceful Warrior'... I started reading a book after having a small breakdown caused by ED issues I was facing lately and suddenly felt like it was a sign. Reading this book which is a companion to his bestseller which I read some time ago felt really homey which is what I really needed and hoped for. Did not disappoint. The book is guiding you and explaining the approaches of Socrates in the first part and answering the most common questions asked regarding the prior novel.
The so-called 'book that changes lives', namely 'Wisdom of the Peaceful Warrior' deeply touched me and helped o develop these questioning cells in my brain that aim to understand the world better. It did not change my life utterly but change my perception. The follow up on that story is taking you back again to this great feeling of understanding and exploring the world again, but this time you already know more, you felt more and you experienced more. Itis not another Eureka but different and deeper one.
I believe that Millman's books are not for everyone even though most of them are great and helped me not particularly find myself but learn more about me. You need to be really connected to your inner self or be willing to build that connection and understand the spirituality and the relation between your body and soul. Only then you can truly enjoy his literature.
Wisdom of the Peaceful Warrior is for those warriors that are already in the process of looking for their inner peace or those who found it - now it's time for deepening the wisdom part!
Definitely would recommend but not to everyone :)

I had high hopes for this when Millman mentioned that some of the woo woo moments he experienced were possibly due to it being late and him not having a full grasp of how much time passed. However, as the book progressed and he began advocating cleansing fasts, detoxes, and other forms of bullshit, this got harder and harder to read. Look up the facts, people: toxins don't work that way; they are processed through the liver, and unless you're eating a high fat low fiber diet, which I guarantee most people reading this sort of book are not, you don't have to worry about fatty liver. Also fasting can be disastrous for the body because it takes a lot of training to do.
