Absent (Paperback)

Paperback. What the kid inside you was never told about healing from abuse. Do you feel like your relationship with your parents is always bringing you down? Do they blame you for their problems, for being a thorn in their shoes, always endeavouring to make you feel like the most massive burden they've ever had to carry? Do they want to control all aspects of your life, continually being dissatisfied with the choices you make? Do they tend to humiliate and manipulate you, making you feel like nothing you do is good enough, that none of your efforts pay off, all while making themselves out to be exceptionally gifted and talented? Abusive parents tend to share common traits--they are constantly negatively reactive, lack empathy, are extremely controlling, always critical, and continuously transfer blame to you. If your parent ticks any of those boxes, then you are likely already aware of who and what you're dealing with. But from here on, things can only get better if you let them. Did you know that an average of 6.6 million children are reported victims of abuse every year, and that about 80% of those people met the criteria for having at least one psychological disorder? Those numbers may seem alarming, but they only cover part of the whole reality. Unfortunately, very few of those people ever get the help and support they need to heal and move forward with their lives properly. This doesn't have to be the case for you, for it is never too late to work for a toxic-free life. Removing yourself from the status quo and accepting your current reality is the most powerful step you can take towards regaining your life--from there on, you will slowly but surely start disentangling the knots that have been holding you down. In Absent, you will discover: How to tend to your inner child, and give them the care and compassion they have always been longing for The art of letting go as a way to empower you on your healing journey The importance of self-compassion and how to effectively practice it to stop all forms of self-blame for things you never had any control over Why freeing yourself from anger and resentment will help you better understand and be more accepting of your parent's behaviour The secrets to self-love you should have learned long ago to offer yourself the best gift every person deserves A new perspective on the act of forgiveness that will finally give you the upper hand when your dealing with your parent(s) How to create a mental space to help you feel safe enough to face your most potent demons and succeed The most crucial thing you need to do to become entirely free of old patterns and finally make conscious choices out of love for yourself and not fear of your parents And much more. It's time to stop suffering from the consequences of past events you never even had control over, remove yourself from the fog that's been blinding your whole being, and step into a burden-free life. It may feel like too much to deal with at first, but all you need are small steps to feel tremendous change. As the saying goes, "Little strokes fell great oaks."
