"Estrangement from one or both parents—even by choice—can take a huge emotional and psychological toll. If you have cut ties with a parent, you may have lingering feelings of anger, loneliness, guilt, and shame. You may question or second-guess your decision. And you may have trouble setting or keeping boundaries with your parent, as well as others in your life. This workbook offers evidence-based skills to help you heal the emotional wounds of your past, so you can finally move forward.
With this compassionate guide, you'll identify the reasons why you cut ties, so you can accept and feel validated in your decision. You'll discover powerful tools to help you manage intense emotions, develop healthy coping strategies, and build a lasting and trustworthy support network. Most importantly, you'll learn to cultivate self-compassion and live your life authentically—on your own terms.
You'll also find step-by-step guidance to:
● Grieve your losses and release guilt, anxiety, shame, and anger
● Understand and overcome the effects of difficult family relationships
● Manage difficult days and occasions like holidays, weddings, and funerals
● Maintain boundaries and build healthy relationships"
"If you find yourself feeling responsible for others' happiness, worrying about letting people down, or struggling to speak up for yourself, you probably have difficulty setting healthy boundaries. Establishing clear personal boundaries is essential to creating and nurturing mutually respectful relationships based on equality. Setting limits can also protect you from getting involved in exploitative relationships, and help you avoid toxic personalities who don’t have your best interests at heart.
This evidence-based workbook will show you how to set healthy boundaries across all aspects of life—without sacrificing your kindness or compassion for others. You'll learn to define your boundaries and discover why they're so important for your emotional well-being. You'll also find a wealth of tips for maintaining boundaries in a 'constantly-connected' world, strategies for what to do when people get upset or threatened by your assertiveness, and ways to make sure your needs are met.
If you're tired of feeling guilty or afraid of putting your mental and physical health first, are ready to take back control of your life, and create healthy and balanced relationships, this book will show you how to step up and set limits, assert yourself confidently, and realize your full potential."
