Resumen del Editor

Have you ever heard of your inner child? Well, this is the classic book that started it all.

In 1987, Charlie Whitfield's breakthrough concept of the child within - that part of us which is truly alive, energetic, creative, and fulfilled - launched the inner child movement. Healing the Child Within describes how the inner child is lost to trauma and loss, and how by recovering it, we can heal the fear, confusion, and unhappiness of adult life.

Eighteen years and more than a million copies sold later, Healing the Child Within is a perennial selling classic in the field of psychology. And it is even more timely today than it was in 1987. Recent brain research, particularly on the effects of trauma on the brain of developing children, has supported Whitfield's intuitive understanding as a psychiatrist.

Healing for sure!

Phenomenal reading. Great research material. what a "all inclusive book" Narrator easy to folllow tone.

Good, honest, helpful, insightful

I want to relisten to this book again. So much in this book to unpack and meditate on whether you've experienced major childhood trauma or not. If you are a human that has experienced any pain or trauma in your life this book can help you understand your sense of self and worldview.

The reader was a bit dry.

Deep insights about healing

This book is very insightful. It talks about trauma and how it affects us as adults.

Jen

I really love this book. I have already listened to it three times. Each time I listen I hear something new.

A MUST

A must in the journey of reaching our higher self. It applies to any disfunction, even the most stubble ones. Love the way he wraps it all up at the end.

Amazing

I loved this book! Must read. Imperative to healing the inner child and living your best life.

All my life fell into place after reading this book

I recommend. Old book but so right on the money. I wish I had came across it 20 years ago.

Must Read! Probably the only self help book you’ll need!

This book explains simply how we as humans work and how we can reclaim our true self and rediscover the happiness that lies within. It’s an essential when trying to understand feelings and emotions and how to grieve and work through our core issues and what the process looks like. It’s a short, easy read, with a tremendous amount of truth, information, and knowledge. Quick and to the point. I love it. Probably the only “self help” book you’ll ever need!

Good information

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, it offers good information.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Healing the Child Within?

Characteristics and irrational behaviors of the wounded child.

Have you listened to any of Robert Feifar’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

no

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The book offers information but did not go indepth on how the wounded inner child forms its neurosis. The steps presented seem at times didactic and formulaic.
