Codependent No More - Melody BeattieCodependent No More: How to Stop Controlling Others and Start Caring for Yourself

Melody Beattie

____

PeoplePsych says:

For those who often “lose themselves” in relationships. This book deconstructs controlling patterns that play out in enmeshed relationships and those who find themselves people-pleasing.

This is a book of empowerment and freedom. It provides psycho-education and tools for people who find themselves resentful of others due to lacking their own boundaries

What I love most about this book is that it is a life-changer. It helps create new patterns in relationships. It increases self-awareness and improves thought processes and understanding of self.

There may be triggering themes of spirituality, which are suggested as a road to recovery. As I always say, take what you want and leave the rest.

This book will improve relationships and help you gain self-awareness.
