Healing Your Lost Inner Child : How to Stop Impulsive Reactions, Set Healthy Boundaries, and Embrace an Authentic Life

Healing Your Lost Inner Child: How to Stop Impulsive Reactions, Set Healthy Boundaries, and Embrace an Authentic Life by Robert Jackman explores how unresolved childhood experiences can influence adult emotions, relationships, behaviours and patterns of self-sabotage.

Through the HEAL process, personal stories and practical exercises, psychotherapist and Reiki master Robert Jackman guides readers towards recognising old emotional wounds, developing healthier boundaries and moving from reactive patterns towards a more conscious and authentic life.

About This Book

Many recurring emotional and behavioural patterns can be difficult to understand. Feelings of being overwhelmed, people-pleasing, isolation, negative self-talk, anger and unhealthy relationship choices may have roots in unresolved experiences from childhood.

In Healing Your Lost Inner Child, Robert Jackman explores the concept of the wounded inner child and how unresolved emotional pain can continue to shape the way people respond to situations in adulthood. The book encourages readers to examine these patterns with greater awareness and compassion.

Using the HEAL process, along with stories and practical exercises, Jackman takes readers on a reflective journey into their early experiences. The aim is to help readers acknowledge emotional wounds, understand their impact and develop a more conscious approach to their thoughts, reactions and relationships.
