Whole Again

Healing Your Heart and Rediscovering Your True Self After Toxic Relationships and Emotional Abuse

By: Jackson MacKenzie, Shannon Thomas - introduction

Narrated by: Kaleo Griffith, Erin Spencer

From a leading voice on recovering from toxic relationships, a deeply insightful guide to getting back to your "old self" again--in order to truly heal and move on.

Jackson MacKenzie has helped millions of readers in their struggle to understand the experience of toxic relationships. His first book, Psychopath Free, explained how to identify and survive the immediate situation. In this highly anticipated new audiobook, he guides listeners on what to do next--how to fully heal from abuse in order to find love and acceptance for the self and others.

Through his work with thousands of survivors of abusive relationships, Jackson discovered that survivors frequently have symptoms of trauma lasting long after the relationship is over. These may include feelings of numbness and emptiness, depression, mood swings, isolation, perfectionism, rumination, caretaking and people-pleasing, a need for control, physical maladies, substance abuse, and more.

But he also found that it is possible to work through these symptoms and find fulfillment and love on the other side. In Whole Again, he shares insights and tools for working through the protective self we've developed, so that we can finally move on to live a full and authentic life--to once again feel light, free, whole, and ready to give and receive love.

Like Brené Brown's The Gifts of Imperfection and John Bradshaw's Healing the Shame that Binds You, Whole Again offers hope and multiple strategies to anyone who has survived a toxic relationship, as well as anyone suffering the effects of a breakup involving lying, cheating and other forms of abuse--to release old wounds and safely let the love back inside where it belongs.

stunning

a lot of thoughtful suggestions in here. A good read after pshycopath free. Dont be scared if it feels advanced.

Life Changing!!!

The author described in EXACT detail my 3 year relationship with a BPD woman, both of our behaviors, even the thoughts racing thru my head, before, during each phase, and after the breakup. Helped me understand what was going on, and to focus on the sensation in my BODY!!

This understanding and implementing awareness practices, not feeding the protective self, unconditional self-love and forgiveness, has already changed my life and has the BELIEF that there is something inherently wrong with me.

I look forward to continuing my progression.

great follow up to psychopath free

I have to say that I have really enjoyed Jackson MacKenzie's books. They hit very close to home and always make me feel like someone understands what I'm going through.

Wow!

This book just helped me unpack the baggage of my life... A little over one year into my spiritual awakening, this book took me from my childhood to where I am now. I highly recommend.

Highly Recommend!!!

Ive been reading on complex PTSD, Attachment Theory & Boundaries for a yr now and this book had relevant information I hadn't gotten elsewhere. great read!
