Breaking Free: A Recovery Workbook for Facing Codependence

Description:

In her pioneering Facing Codependence, Pia Mellody traced the origins of codependence back to childhood and a wide range of emotional, spiritual, intellectual, physical, and sexual abuses. Now in this innovative new workbook, she presents a step-by-step journal-keeping method for moving toward recovery from codependence. Based on such concepts as the "precious child" and the five core symptoms of codependence, along with the Twelve-Step process of recovery used by Codependents Anonymous, Breaking Free provides strategies and insights for attacking the fundamental problem in codependence-the lack of dependence on self.

In a three-part approach to recovery, Mellody first shows recovering codependents how to move beyond denial of their childhood history of abuse. She then offers techniques to identify concrete ways in which the symptoms of codependence operate in their lives. Finally, Mellody guides users through the process of identifying and recording specific instances of improvement in their lives as an aid to greater self-awareness and further recovery.

i am not an advocate for workbooks when it comes to 12 step recovery, but in terms of codependence guidance is needed in a different format. her book that accompanies this workbook tells us what codependence is and how it sabbotages our lives, this workbook teases out the personal information so that it can be addressed. i have flicked through sections when it felt relevant and reviewed more thoroughly some others. i wouldnt recommend doing it alone though as with all recovery the journey needs to be shared.

Very easy to understand and excellent workbook questions/tasks. That combined with her books on co-dependency are a fantastic tool to deal with such issues. I found it interesting, enlightening and was easy to just pick up & read for 15 mins, unlike some books where you need to read a whole chapter. Would recommend this highly if you want to look into your own co-dependency issues.

When used in conjunction with her book "Facing Codependency" this workbook is exceptionally useful in not only understanding what causes codependency and how it effects your life, but also continuing in the recovery process.I've found not just understanding the ways it impacts me, but also my loved ones, has made it a very useful tool in overcoming the tendencies. Sort of like using the disease against itself to provide motivation.Recommend highly. While I definitely suggest purchasing the book as well, she does a fantastic job summarizing the key points in the workbook itself.
