Inner child. How to heal children's injuries and find harmony with yourself. Whitfield P.

The doctor and psychotherapist Charles Whitfield was the first to write a comprehensive, systematized and helping book about the appearance of an inner child. This is a modern classic of psychology, which today is just as fresh and useful that at the time of the first edition.

according to careful estimates, children's injuries - often in toxic family conditions - have suffered over 50% of the population. In some crops, the indicator reaches 70, 80, 90%. Because of this, the central element of human consciousness-our genuine “I”-begins to hide.

In the book “Inner Child”, Dr. Whitfield tells how wounds are inflicted on our inner child and represents the healing program. He leads the reader through four stages leading to the new discovery of the true “I”:

to learn to be “real”, practicing with safe people.

to determine their healthy human needs.

mourn the unfarmed grievances, injuries and losses.

to work out the most important problems of recovery, relationships and life.

Books on the topic come and go, but this work remains a strong introduction to diagnostics and treatment of the consequences of children's injuries. It is recommended by both psychotherapists and people who had a similar life experience.

from the author:

the idea of ​​an inner child - a child within us - is part of the world culture for at least two thousand years. Karl Jung called him a divine child, Emmett Fox - a wonderful child, the psychotherapists Alice Miller and Donald Winnikott called him the true “I”.

An internal child is a part of us, who is highly alive, energetic, creative and creative and creative and creative implemented. This is our true “I” - who we are actually. Due to the lack of care and freedom of expression, false or co-dependent "I" arises. We begin to occupy the position of the victim in life and experience difficulties with resolving emotional injuries. Gradually, mental and emotional problems accumulate, and chronic anxiety, fear, confusion, and emptiness come with them. We become unhappy.

The denial of the inner child and the subsequent occurrence of a false “I”, or a negative ego, are especially often found in those children and adults who grew in problem families - in those where chronic diseases (physical or Mental), stiffness, coldness or lack of care was common.

Nevertheless, there is a way out. We can find and heal our inner child, stop relying on the false “I” and break out of the grade of suffering. This is what my book is dedicated to.

for whom this book:

for those who are pursued by fears from the past.

for those who did not receive care and support in childhood.

for everyone who feels that his real and strong “I” is crushed and hidden somewhere inside, and wants to finally afford to live joyfully.
