Four Agreements Companion (2000) - Plot & Excerpts
I honestly can’t believe that this book isn’t mentioned more. I really do feel like this book and “The Four Agreements” should just be one book. If anything, I got more out of this companion book than I did out of the “Four Agreements”!This book was stunning. I really like that there are a lot of journal prompts in the book. I have been going through and writing them all down, and am planning on journalling my way through the questions this summer. There were a lot of questions in this book that were really insightful and showed how the agreements should work in everyday life.This book is basically a continuation of the last little bit of the “Four Agreements”, so please make sure you read the other book first.There were a lot of quotes and passages that I underlined in “The Four Agreements Companion”. I think it will be good to go back and even just look at those passages in the future. There is a lot of emphasis of mindfulness of your self in any situation. I think that this is something that anyone can incorporate into their lives, regardless of their spirituality or religion or philosophy on life.I really liked the back third of the book, where there were question and answers regarding the four agreements and the philosophy behind them. It really added to the experience of the book.I would like to give this book 5/5 stars. I am happy that I read both of these books back to back, and feel that they really made me think about what the author was arguing. I really enjoyed this book as I enjoyed other books by this author. The ideas in "The Four Agreements" made a lot of sense. The thing I liked about this companion book is that it gives the tools for how to start practicing the four agreements in every day life. I especially like the end of the book that had a series of questions and answers. I found that this section answered many questions that I had in the back of my mind about the Four Agreements.
