Reading about Beverly's childhood, just broke my heart. What with her experiencing sexual rape at a young age was horrible but I think the worse was when Beverly told her mom; only to have her mother not believe her and still keep a friendship with the woman who's boyfriend raped Beverly. This led Beverly to act out and believe that she was a horrible daughter.
There was no love shown by Beverly's mother. I am very lucky that my mom loves me with all her heart. We have a very close relationship. So, I can not imagine not having a close relationship with my mother. There is one word for what Beverly went through and that is...perseverance. She did not let what happened to her as a child shape her into who she is now. Raising Myself is a very well written and thoughtful memoir.… (plus d'informations)

Addresses concerns about becoming a parent. Sometimes you’re not ready. Sometimes you’re just not parent material. Helped me understand at the time that one is not the lesser for not being a parent.
This was a very interesting book. Found myself making sense out of things happening in my life with other people that up until reading this truly was at my wits end in understanding. Now, I get it.

Freeing Yourself from Childhood Abuse with the Power of Self-Compassion
2015
Received digital copy from NetGalley for review.
How shame affects victims of childhood abuse
"Shame is the lie someone told you about yourself."
~Anais Nin
The author is a counselor who develops the effective, Compassion Cure program, based on her own experience with childhood abuse. She describes the feelings of guilt and shame which feed the PTSD most people feel. Through her program she explains how one must heal herself of these negative emotions in order to move forward.
"The Compassion Cure program will teach you specific compassionate attitudes and skills that can reverse your tendency to view yourself in a blaming, condemning, self-critical way."
This book provides suggestions as to how to build self compassion and ultimately self esteem. It identifies the very common yet destructive feeelings of fear and self loathing that can prevent total healing.… (plus d'informations)
