Healing the Child Within

Review by S. Henry, 2010-04-21

I cannot rave enough about this book. I thought I would be able to just skim through the book, but it is a lot deeper and informative than I ever imagined. It is an easy read and very paractical. The information is applicable, so it may be best to take each chapter in and not rush through. I think this way you will be able to retain the informaiton. It has really given me a lot of insight about myself, my family of origin, and some answers to why or how people behave in ways that they do. Even if your belief system does not parallel with that of this book, you will still come out with a lot of knowledge about yourself and others. This book is also informative for those who have NOT came from Alcoholic or Drug Abused/Troubled homes. It really is applicable for ANY and EVERY one.

I think this book is terrific for those who are trying to learn about themselves, heal from broken relationships or trying to grow stronger relationships, and VERY IMPORTANTLY, if they will one day be a parent themselves. A great gift you can give your child is to heal and help yourself so you can truly be a parent for your child(ren). This will help for dysfunction NOT to continue!!! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!

Next I want to oder "A Gift To Myself" which is the workbook by Charles L. Whitfield (the same author).

I've read better

Review by Nicole, 2008-10-10

The book has a good idea behind it. And it makes some good points. But I found it much more difficult to read that many other books of this type. Not "hard" difficult or anything like that. Difficult in the sense that the book just never caught my attention the way that other self help books have and I really had to force myself to keep reading. I don't think I got as much out of it as I could have simply because I had such a hard time paying attention.

This book will help you feel

Review by Raven Thorsson, 2008-10-08

If you suffer from past trauma of abuse as a child, this book will help you feel things you may have not been able to feel before. Best to work with therapist or caring friend or partner. This book is 'gentle' enough to comfort you somewhat when doing the work but you will more than likely have feelings rush in waves inside you that may be more than you can control.

Healing the Child Within

Review by YorkieMom, 2008-10-03

Healing the Child Within is a very readable, but concise guide to healing one's inner child no matter the person's age. I have been in therapy for a couple of years and have been to healing retreats, so I am quite familiar with most of the material presented. However, for me the book provided a review and reminder of just what it is I am doing. I highly recommend the book as a companion to therapy to be used slowly throughout the process so one is not overwhelmed.
