5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Beautiful Meditations for Codependents
In "The Language of Letting Go," Melody Beattie gently guides us along the path of self -awareness and recovery from a compulsive process practiced by millions without their awareness, knowledge or consent. The book uses the basic ideas incorporated in two other publications by the same author, "Co-dependent No More" and "Beyond Co-dependency." Using uncomplicated language, she gives us the tools to practice letting go of people, places and things, including a variety of attitudes and coping mechanisms that produce unwanted, negative consequences. Guidelines are set down to help people discover the truth and heal their lives, explaining in the form of daily readings/meditations how to deal with relationships, feelings and a multitude of life experiences, in ways that are beneficial rather than detrimental.The lives of co-dependent people are characterised by taking responsibility for the feelings, actions and reactions of others, whilst at the same time ignoring their own needs. In some instances abusive and unacceptable behaviours are tolerated for extended periods of time. These self-defeating patterns are usually accompanied by a desperate need to control outcomes, and this book demonstrates how to explore the root causes, and gain healing at a deep level. Working on the concept that no one can give from an empty cup heralds the beginning of the road to a more balanced and rewarding way of life. Gaining the ability to say NO, and mean it, is vital for those who try to earn love and approval by pleasing others. Equally important is learning to say YES and truly believe that it is not only okay, but also the right of every human being to take loving care of themselves, live life joyfully and follow their chosen path with heart.The book has a spiritual orientation, which is equally suitable for people of all religious faiths or those with none. The fundamental idea of a power greater than ones-self who will provide Good Orderly Direction, without strings, was birthed in the 12 step program of Alcoholics Anonymous, and has since been adopted by many as a tool for letting go of the things we cannot control in life. There is a theory being expressed quite commonly at the moment which suggests that co-dependency is at the root of all addictions, be they to a chemical or a behaviour, and if this is the case then all recovering addicts need to read and digest Ms Beattie's words. It is not necessary, however, to be an addict in order to suffer from co-dependency. It can stand alone quite firmly on its own two dysfunctional feet.The one person an individual does have power over, however, is himself or herself. Positive, dramatic changes can and do take place. With warmth, understanding and spiritual insight Melody Beattie shares many of her own feelings and experiences as a recovering addict and co-dependent. Her words come straight from the heart to touch others who are in need of her wisdom. Through the pages of this little gem of a book, it is possible to come to the realisation that anyone can learn how to treat themselves with respect and love, putting self- care at the top of the list. It isn't likely to be easy, especially in the beginning, but by practising the author's suggestions on a daily basis, there comes the promise of freedom. It must be remembered though that this freedom is not given away to anyone. It always has to be claimed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful advice
Easy to read, I enjoy Melody’s guidance.
5.0 out of 5 stars This is really good book on avoiding becoming a victim by becoming a codependent yourself.
I brought this book after suffering the shock death of a close friend. But actually it was more related to letting yourself become a victim by worrying too much about the people in the aftermath and dragging yourself down over an event you had no control and then becoming a Codependent of them. It's make a really interesting and challenging discussion so it be good for a book club. As I think the message she is saying is be selfish there is only one you and start your kind work and good work with that message in mind.A bit like the message you get on an Airplane put your oxygen mask on first before your attending your children......If you don't take care of yourself first who will? She certainly provides food for thought.
Un jour, une méditation
Aussi simple que cela. À la manière de la littérature Al-Anon ou d'autres programmes en 12 étapes, ce livre propose chaque jour une réflexion sur la codépendance, le processus de recouvrance, les programmes eux-mêmes, la vie, l'univers et le reste...Cela permet d'appréhender la richesse des propos une idée à la fois, "aujourd'hui seulement", comme le préconise la si précieuse devise. Un livre qui conviendra aux codépendants, mais qui pourra aussi permettre à leurs proches de mieux cerner les mécanismes de cette addiction à la définition encore assez floue et aux expressions multiples.Plus généralement, à mon avis, toute personne éprouvant des difficultés à "lâcher prise" pourra bénéficier grandement des idées et suggestions présentes dans ce livre. Une chose est sûre, Melody Beattie sait de quoi elle parle.
Worth Buying
The technique followed by the author to anthologise this book is eminent.Go for it.
Pochi minuti al giorno per riflettere

unbelievably helpful
I love this book....I have found it unbelievably helpful as I am encouraged, confronted with honesty...in a gentle direct, relatable, no nonsense refreshing way. I look forward to each day's message and am always renewed or reminded of where I've been but who I am now. Each message encouraged me on the way through the ups and downs of recovery. This book has be a vital part of my journey and process of healing. Like a mental and emotional compass I trust, knowing she (the author) knows...
