The New Codependency: Help And Guidance For Today's Generation (2008) - Plot & Excerpts

words also have the power to hurt or heal. For better or worse words have a physiologival effect on people and their bodies...There's only one alternative to repression:self-expression. We express who we are ,how we feel, what we have to say, ...this book encourage to make expression a goal.Gently exppressing feelings,instead of repression.Improve our communication.Learn to love and take care of ourselves...then you learn to love others better. This book was recommended by a friend because she was reading it and it was helping her. It's a good reminder of some good habits and skills to keep up, however most of it doesn't apply to me because it's stuff that I've been doing or I've been doing beyond what she recommends. She has quizzes in the book which are interesting but limited. In her book she focuses a great deal on twelve step programs and God. This makes her book very limited. These are two areas I don't follow nor would I. It makes it very bias and shifts focus from dealing with own issues to giving it to "God". I have read better books on bettering self with more everyday tools to work on, especially for difficult conversations, then again I am not codependent and this didn't apply to me.
