We all live our lives according to a set of rules. Each of our behaviors is regulated by a rule. Some rules we know. Others, however, are unconscious. These are our secret rules. When we do things that go against these secret rules, we experience stress, anxiety, apprehension, and emotional exhaustion--and we never know why. That is, until now. In this book, Dr. Jordan Weiss offers a unique system that uncovers our most secret rules.

The book begins by explaining the important roles that conscious and unconscious rules play in our daily existence. Subsequent chapters focus on key areas of our lives--money, religion, gender identification, work, friendships, health, power, personal statement, marriage, and sex. Each chapter contains challenging questions meant to be answered by the reader. The answers offered provide a personal look at how we would behave when faced with specific situations. At the end of each chapter is an analysis of potential answers that is designed to reveal the extent of our secret rules.

Our Secret Rules concludes by explaining how we can use our newly gained insights to improve the way we feel about ourselves and others. For once we know our rules, we can then learn to live within them, or we can attempt to change them.

Dr. Jordan Weiss received his medical degree from the University of Illinois Medical School in Chicago. With an emphasis on the body-mind-spirit connection, he worked at several leading complementary medical centers. A practicing psychiatrist for over twenty years, Dr. Weiss currently works at Irvine's Center for Psychoenergetic Therapy. He is the author of several published articles on emotional responses, and is a highly regarded speaker.
