Product Description
Product Description
The framework used in this revised edition of the best-selling "Breaking Free from the Codependency Trap" differs radically from the prevailing medical definition of codependency as a permanent, progressive and incurable addiction. Rather, the authors identify it as a "developmental fragment" remaining from incomplete developmental tasks during the first year of life. The Weinholds use the first half of the book to describe the developmental causes of codependency and correlate them with problems later in life such as establishing and maintaining boundaries, clinging and dependent behaviours, people-pleasing, and difficulty in achieving success in the world.The second part of the book, which focuses on healing codependency, provides a wealth of case histories and experiential activities that readers can use to help them shift their consciousness and transform themselves and their primary relationships. The book concludes with a chapter describing how Janae and Barry worked through their own codependent patterns. Repeatedly described by readers as "hopeful" and "visionary", "Breaking Free from the Codependency Trap" presents the Weinholds' groundbreaking developmental approach to shifting consciousness and restoring relationships.
From the Author
Co-dependency is not a disease! You can recover!
This is a book about hope. Much of the literature on co-dependency, unfortunately, leaves readers feeling as though they have some incurable and potentially fatal disease. This has not been our experience! Clients who use our approach find that they can heal the root causes of co-dependency in their primary relationships. This book also explores the cultural sources of co-dependent behaviors and gives many hopeful examples from our client files witnessing their healing experiences. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
