Choosing between two used-good spiritual workbooks can feel like comparing a guided course with a combined omnibus. On one side is the Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Course Workbook, a paperback from the series by Peter and Geri Scazzero, listed at $4.25. On the other is A Course in Miracles, a hardcover combining the Text, Workbook, and Manual for Teachers, listed at $7.16. The two books differ in format, scope, and price by about $2.91, so your decision comes down to how you like to study.
The Decision at a Glance
No single 'best' workbook fits everyone. The Scazzero workbook is the leaner, lower-priced option for a structured course tied to the Emotionally Healthy Spirituality series. The hardcover Course in Miracles is the fuller collection for readers who want three volumes in one book. Both are listed as good condition.

Product Notes
Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Course Workbook, Updated Edition
At the lower listed price, this trade paperback gives you a guided workbook from the Emotionally Healthy Spirituality series by Peter and Geri Scazzero. It is a reasonable pick for group or personal study that follows a course structure, and the lighter format makes it easy to bring along to a class or read on the go. It is in good condition, and because it is a used textbook-style copy, supplemental extras such as CDs or access codes may not be included. That means you should plan to rely on the workbook itself for the course content rather than expecting bundled media. If you are already aligned with the Emotionally Healthy Spirituality framework, this is a straightforward way to work through it.
A Course in Miracles (The Text; The Workbook; The Manual for Teachers)
At the higher listed price, this hardcover bundles all three foundational parts of A Course in Miracles: the Text, the Workbook, and the Manual for Teachers. That single-volume convenience is a strong reason to choose it if you want the complete set without juggling separate books. The hardcover format is more substantial for repeated use. The trade-off is that a used-good copy may contain highlighting or writing on the text, and supplemental materials such as CDs or info-trac may be absent. You are mainly paying for the three-part book itself, so be ready for the text to show signs of prior use. For readers who want the full teaching in one place, the combined hardcover is the more complete pick.
Final Choice by Use Case
Pick the Scazzero workbook when you want a structured, portable course workbook and prefer the lower listed price. Pick A Course in Miracles when you want the complete three-part teaching in a hardcover single volume. Both are listed as good condition, so your decision is really about scope, format, and how much you want to spend.
