Description
A transformative, interactive guide to help you heal the past, reconnect with yourself and reclaim your life
Depression. Anxiety. Chronic pain. Obsessive thoughts. The origins of these difficulties may not lie within our own lives, but in the experiences our parents, grandparents, or even great-grandparents. As a pioneer in the field of inherited family trauma, Mark Wolynn has worked with individuals and groups on a therapeutic level for more than twenty years. Now you can work with him too.
This life-changing workbook is a companion to his international bestseller It Didn't Start With You, and offers a pragmatic and easy-to-follow guide to Wolynn's method, the Core Language Approach. Through a series of activities, prompts, and practices, you may discover that the afflictions you've endured your whole life are the symptoms of a hidden family legacy. If you feel ready to reclaim your life, vitality and health, this is your interactive guide to recovery.
