    Product Description

    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.

    2 out of 5 stars I've read better   October 10, 2008
     1 out of 1 found this review helpful

    The book has a good idea behind it. And it makes some good points. But I found it much more difficult to read that many other books of this type. Not "hard" difficult or anything like that. Difficult in the sense that the book just never caught my attention the way that other self help books have and I really had to force myself to keep reading. I don't think I got as much out of it as I could have simply because I had such a hard time paying attention.


    5 out of 5 stars This book will help you feel   October 8, 2008
    If you suffer from past trauma of abuse as a child, this book will help you feel things you may have not been able to feel before. Best to work with therapist or caring friend or partner. This book is 'gentle' enough to comfort you somewhat when doing the work but you will more than likely have feelings rush in waves inside you that may be more than you can control.


    5 out of 5 stars Healing the Child Within   October 3, 2008
    Healing the Child Within is a very readable, but concise guide to healing one's inner child no matter the person's age. I have been in therapy for a couple of years and have been to healing retreats, so I am quite familiar with most of the material presented. However, for me the book provided a review and reminder of just what it is I am doing. I highly recommend the book as a companion to therapy to be used slowly throughout the process so one is not overwhelmed.

    5 out of 5 stars If you really want to uncover some thruths about yourself,   June 11, 2008
     1 out of 1 found this review helpful

    I suggest you read this book. I often felt isolated and "different", not knowing why. Just reading through this book uncovered and healed much of my pain that I denied having for so long. This book has been a gift to me, helping me to understand myself and others much more, which is what I always really wanted. I felt so stuck, and this book along with a few other materials was a real lifechanger. It put into words what I didn't want to know, only to free me of the shame through acknowledgement. Truly a springboard to a better life!
