Open When

I'm the 'wife' in the headline and had to write this review because I LOVE this book! I've always enjoyed receiving letters (not bills) and the tactile feeling of opening the letters in this book brings back the memories of letters past from my own dynamic mother. The simple letters contained in this book are concise and written with heartfelt wisdom summoning one's soul to reflect, and spirit to lift when...life hurts. The book has the resonance of receiving a letter from a wise and loving parent. I would highly suggest this book for anyone who needs a quick little boost. Thank you Karen for yet another uplifting book! LOVE IT! :)

I was EXTREMELY PLEASED with this unique and wonderful selection of letters already in specially marked envelopes, for use in lifting someone’s spirit in different types of situations. Highly recommend, and those I’ve given them to, to open when they’re feeling a certain way, can be opened for a very thoughtful and caring gift for those you can’t always be with. They’ve been a huge hit, and I’ll likeky order again.

Did you ever wish you got a letter in the mail -- that had just the answer you were looking for? Then get this little book -- or -- give it as a gift for someone you love -- and save the postage! Super cute -- a wonderful gift for someone going off to college, or a friend or family member -- or -- for yourself!

I bought this not quite sure what it was, but I really love it. It is a great little thing to have around to make you smile. Very well made. Clever design and illustrations. So inspirational. My favorite is the happiness envelope.

This beautiful, original and totally delightful little book is a big bunch of sunshine that will fit in your pocket.It's filled with easy to digest wisdom and inspiration and it is the perfect gift for someone going through a difficult time.

A sweet little book! I made small note cards to go with each page and gave it to those who just need a lift up !

I have been a longtime fan of Karen Salmansohn, mainly because she is the "real deal" and is not embarrassed to admit that she HAS experienced everything she writes about, FIRST HAND. I have learned more from her than I have from speaking to professionals with PhD's and MDs, because she is so empathetic and non-judge mental. As a result, I always feel so connected to her ideas, especially bc of her use of down-to-earth language. I love how Karen doesn't use a filter when writing and many of her quotes remind me of things I wish I could say, but don't feel "ballsy" enough to say it out loud. This makes one feel understood and reassured to not feel alone, especially when you think you are the ONLY one with that thought pattern.I pre-ordered 3 copies of the book and bought 2 as gifts. Upon arrival, I gave all 3 copies to different individuals, who were grieving tragic deaths. I didn't have words of comfort for them, but the book did. They were very appreciative for that.From an organizational standpoint, I love the way that the book is divided by different feelings and you can go straight to a "specific emotion" you need support with. This is the type of book that every person should have at least two copies of in his/her home, AT ALL TIMES. One copy for yourself, and one for someone needing help and comfort immediately (similar to frozen chicken soup in your freezer, for when you or your neighbor get ill)❤ I do not like reading and yet I LOVE this book. I highly recommend it !✌️🌞🌟☀️💫

Absolutely love this!! What a true treasure to find. It made for a simple but very touching going away gift!
