Synopsis

When your parents are pathologically self-centered, manipulative, or emotionally abusive, the pain they cause is deep and often difficult to put into words. You may experience anxiety, depression, complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD), low self-esteem, addiction, or other mental health conditions as an adult. But it was not your fault, and there are tools you can use to heal the trauma caused by your childhood.

This compassionate guide will help you gain a greater understanding of what happened in your past; transform deep pain into emotional resilience; and build the loving, meaningful relationship with yourself that you deserve. You'll also learn to set boundaries with others, assert your needs, and overcome emotional avoidance to develop warm, loving relationships with others.

Author Sherrie Campbell offers powerful skills drawn from a range of evidence-based treatments, including mindfulness, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), self-compassion, lived experience, and body-based practices to help you heal from the past and reconnect with your authentic self.

Let this book guide you on the path to healing, wholeness, and self-discovery.

One, I felt there was very little nuance in the description of emotionally abusive parents. Part of the devast......more

Goodreads review by Mimi on March 23, 2024

Do you ever read a book where you kind of wish you just skimmed it? Or that it was just a tiny bit shorter or even just an essay? That was this book for me. The first 80 or so pages were very validating for me and the rest was a mixed bag of very obvious things that I think I'm either passed needing......more

Goodreads review by Roberto on September 21, 2024

Gran libro, va mucho mas alla del título, es un viaje de instrospección, de compasión y aceptación. Aún siendo afortunado de tener una familia amorosa, es un gran libro para reflexionar sobre el pasado, y el futuro, es un abrazo.......more
