Showing results for "It" in Codependency

In this audiobook, Richo offers a fresh perspective on love and relationships - one that focuses not on finding an ideal mate, but on becoming a more loving and realistic person. Drawing on the Buddhist concept of mindfulness, How to Be an Adult in Relationships explores five hallmarks of mindful loving and how they play a key role in our relationships throughout life: Attention to the present moment; observing, listening, and noticing all the feelings at play in our relationships.

Pia Mellody creates a framework for identifying codependent thinking, emotions and behaviour and provides an effective approach to recovery. Mellody sets forth five primary adult symptoms of this crippling condition, then traces their origin to emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical and sexual abuses that occur in childhood. Central to Mellody's approach is the concept that the codependent adult's injured inner child needs healing.

Sharon Meers and Joanna Strober are professionals, wives, and mothers. They understand the challenges and rewards of two-career households.

A Cherokee elder explained to me: "Woman is Fire; she is the light in the darkness, the heat when it is cold, and carries the energy to synergize our food. Man is the Protector of the Fire; he keeps it from going out and from wildly burning down the forest." The relationships in our lives are reflected in this principle. Your relationships with yourself, your beloved, your family, and your life are all affected by understanding this principle. Every cell and neuron, every action and reaction, every choice and non-choice, is a relationship.
