Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Book Preview: #1 The path to healing is a long one, and it involves the emotional discovery of your childhood history. If you choose instead to content yourself with intellectual wisdom, you will remain in the sphere of illusion and self-deception.
#2 The repression of childhood pain influences not only the life of an individual but also the society's taboos. The typical run of biographies illustrates this very clearly.
#3 The child has a need to be respected and understood from the very beginning of their life. When they are in an environment of respect and tolerance for their feelings, they are able to separate from their mother and achieve individuation and autonomy.
#4 The need to be taken seriously is an important prerequisite for the healthy development of a child. If parents did not experience this climate, they will be unable to provide their child with the protection and well-being she needs to develop trust.
