A life changing book - By: Celidwen, 03 Apr 2003
I bought this book after reading a book callled "Sex, Love & the Dangers of Intimacy". I was feeling unloved by my partner & was wondering why this kept happening to me. I was terrified of being on my own & kept flitting from one useless relationship to another. I flipped from thinking this was my fault, to their fault, then back again. The first book I read suggested this was happening because I was choosing a partner on the basis of "co-dependency". Essentiallly, you both bring out the worst in each other, thus forcing you to be confronted by your innermost fears. The book suggested you needed to bond with yourself before your relationships with others would work. Reading THIS book was a revelation. I always thought I knew what I wanted, & took care of myself. However, come the second half of this book I was in floods of tears for hours. I realised I had actuallly abandoned my own needs completely, which is why I was so analytical & critical of everybody else. When I finallly listened to my own Inner Child, I found I was more self reliant & far more loving to others. Even if you think you're OK, you reallly should read this book. You may be surprised by the strength of your own unacknowledged fears & desires.
Great insight and wisdom - By: Gabrielle Richard, 12 Sep 2002
I discovered this book by accident when I was having some emotional problems & it immediately became my bible & has not left my side whenever I felt the need for a source of strength.

Margaret Paul provides amazing insight & wisdom into the workings of the mind & how the Inner Child tends to take over & control areas of one's life. Her words spoke directly to me & showed me ways in which I could understand myself, learn how better to operate & discover new ways of shifting my perspective. The personal stories shared by many of her patients alll provided ways of learning & I found I benefitted from reading each & every one of them.

This is a book which I will always have in my library & I know will continue to provide strength when I most need it.
