Healing the shame that binds you

Bradshaw, John, 1933-20162005
Book
This classic book, written 17 years ago but still selling more than 13,000 copies every year, has been completely updated and expanded by the author. "I used to drink," writes John Bradshaw, "to solve the problems caused by drinking. the more I drank to relieve my shame-based loneliness and hurt, the more I felt ashamed." Shame is the motivator behind our toxic behaviours: the compulsion, co-dependency, addiction and drive to super achieve that breaks down the family and destroys personal lives. this book has helped millions identify their personal shame, understand the underlying reasons for it, address these root causes and release themselves from the shame that binds them to their past failures.
