    About this ebook

    When the going gets tough, the tough ... make lemonade

    At least that’s what author Janet Thomas did. She had her share of life’s lemons, from sexual abuse to clinical depression to obesity and beyond. She could have just decided to pitch her tent in the citrus section of life’s grocery store and succumbed to the sour – but she didn’t. Instead she turned her life around, then examined what she learned and turned to help others. The power of Janet’s presence in these written words awakens and energizes your inherent desire to love and lift yourself.

    Using the metaphor of making lemonade, Lemons, Lemonade & Life gently guides you through a unique process of discovering:
    ...what it is you want
    ...why you don’t yet have it, and, most importantly
    ...how you can turn those things you currently perceive as anchors dragging you down into resources for launching yourself upward.

    Whatever your challenges, Lemons, Lemonade & Life uniquely inspires and encourages healing and wholeness. Anything you find as a block can be addressed and transformed using Janet’s positive, self-supportive approach. As her words, thoughts, and techniques kindle the flame of confidence deep within, you will find yourself:
    Improving your physical health
    Releasing yourself from addiction
    Dropping unwanted weight
    Discovering how to develop your natural gifts and talents
    Seeing things you have constantly struggled with disappear with ease
    Attracting new friends
    Enjoying healthier relationships
    Gaining the ability to attract abundance into your life, and much, much more.

    Many books are useful because they present familiar ideas in a different way. This book is invaluable because it demonstrates looking at life in a different way. No matter what lemons you may have been given, this is the key for using them as key ingredients for finding your true, best self and restoring sweetness to your experience of life every day.

    Janet D. Thomas

    Janet D. Thomas is a captivating speaker, engaging writer and dynamic workshop leader who practices what she preaches. This imparts to her written and spoken words the power to both inspire and motivate, even heal. And because her message is based upon her personal experience, describing her own transformation literally energizes transformation in those who experience her. Always seeking for answers, over the course of her life Janet has healed the wounds of childhood sexual abuse and overcome a laundry list of challenges ranging from obesity, eviction and bankruptcy to compulsive lying, clinical depression and divorce. To her, making lemonade is no mere philosophical or psychological proposition; it has been a life-saving strategy. A lifelong metaphysician and with over 20 years as a trained channel and medium, Janet is a highly effective spiritual coach. Her approach is one of determining how to do, rather than how to think. She is a manifester extraordinaire. Because of the intensity, determination, and sheer dedication with which she pursues her calling, Janet is, indeed, a healing soldier. A native of Southern California, Janet lives, writes and maintains her coaching practice in North Hollywood, California. She is the mother of an adult son, of whom she is very proud.
