    Saying "No" to Guilt

    Saying "No" to Guilt

    The useless emotions: guilt and worry. A phrase burned in my brain for more than 40 years, ever since I read Your Erroneous Zones, by the late, great Dr. Wayne Dyer, way before he was shot into the stratosphere of fame and fortune – and appearances on PBS.
