FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:  Enchantment in an E-mail Shares Story About ‘The Rabbi Who Lived in the Woods’

Ocean, NJ – January 2002 – Dr. Barbara Becker Holstein, Author, Life Coach, and Originator of THE ENCHANTED SELF, has an inspirational/self-help e-zine entitled 'Enchantment in an E-mail' that has been in circulation since August, 2000.

Dr. Holstein writes Enchantment in an E-mail with a focus on positive memories and life stories.  Subscribers also receive lively and inspiring self-help exercises, quotes, blessings, and ‘recipes for enchantment’ which focus on an enhanced way of living in each issue.

Readers are encouraged to share their own positive memories by submitting them to Dr. Holstein, who often features courageous and uplifting stories from others. 

This month’s lead article is entitled ‘The Rabbi Who Lived in the Woods’.  This short story comes from her latest book: Recipes for Enchantment, The Secret Ingredient is YOU!  It is a story of a Rabbi that taught his students about more than the Jewish faith—he taught them survival.  Dr. Holstein illustrates how at any moment we may be learning important skills that we do not immediately realize will help us in the future.  She further explains why everyone should savor all kinds of knowledge and learn to apply it to a life of enchantment.

Dr. Holstein has been a psychologist in private practice since 1981.  Through the practice that she shares with her husband, Dr. Russell Holstein, they have created a long overdue shift in psychology by emphasizing what's right with us, rather than what's wrong.  She offers a new way of looking at your life ... your own 'enchanted self'.  Her goal is to inspire and encourage you to achieve your positive states of mind, body, and spirit. 

Dr. Holstein’s e-zine is sent out to subscribers on the 1st of each month.  Interested readers can subscribe to Enchantment in an E-mail and find links to archived issues at http://www.enchantedself.com/newsletter.htm.  There is also information on how to sign up for The Enchanted Self’s lengthy print newsletter that is also available by subscription.
