Resumen del Editor

Your tale is bigger than your trauma. Listen on to find out how to reclaim your story….

Childhood trauma is more common than any healthy society would like, with more than two-thirds of children reporting at least one traumatic event by age 16.

Traumatic events may include:

• Psychological, physical, or sexual abuse
• Domestic, community, or school violence
• Neglect
• Serious accidents or life-threatening illnesses

These traumatic events can trigger a variety of responses–such as intense emotional upset, depressive symptoms or anxiety, behavioral changes, difficulties with self-regulation, and problems relating to others, just to list a few. No matter how much you try to avoid or ignore this trauma, traumatic experiences have a tendency of leaving a legacy of reminders that persists for years. It may manifest differently from person to person, but what’s universal is the harmful impact of trauma on a person’s health, relationships, and experiences.

Never knew…

I never knew much about any of these childhood wounds that fester. Explains about trauma and how we respond to it. I highly recommend for anyone who would like a bit of self care as well as self awareness.

One Step at A Time

Heal Your Inner Child is an excellent resource to support your healing journal. I appreciated the exercise and suggestions in this book. Self-care and self-parenting were areas that made perfect sense to me. This book gives you the steps necessary to be a proactive part of your own healing. The author even shares how you can use all the senses in your healing journey and how important simple things like gut health can affect mental health. Well done.

A powerful work of art

Thank you for this. When this audiobook ended, I felt a depth of peace and knowing, I felt seen. This audiobook is full of wisdom that I know everyone needs to listen to. Many of us are walking wounds and are very good at hiding them. When we chose to heal, it creates a powerful shift beyond just in our own life. Thank you for this, I know it’s going to help so many people!

A good resource to help overcome a difficult past

This is a good resource for self-reflection after a not so perfect childhood (and I would venture to say that few of us had a perfect childhood). It definitely provoked some emotion as I reflected on my own experiences and shed light on some of my current behaviors that have been affected by things that happened years ago.

I liked the reflection questions and concluding thoughts at the end of each chapter. I appreciated the idea of creating an audio log if you don't like journaling. There are comparisons and similes that helped make the point clearer or more memorable in certain sections. The book also includes some good practical tips that will help with internal healing like making sure you get enough sleep.

There were a few things that I don't agree with on a personal level, such as the idea of karma or looking at your ego as separate from yourself.

I did like how she outlined maladaptive coping mechanisms and then went over specific coping strategies. That's just one of several useful lists included with explanations in the book.

Overall I found this to be a useful book and plan to implement some of the strategies and will likely listen to it again after I've made some progress.

Fantastic Audiobook

What a fantastic audiobook! I learned a lot. It’s packed with tons of useful content, information and insights, all broken down into clear sections that are easy to understand and follow. And with great narration too. It’s perfect for self-help if you have experienced trauma in your childhood years which can still manifest itself in adult life. I liked that the book looks at self-healing and self care, which are both such important concepts that are often overlooked. Anna Berry does a great job!

Heal your inner child

This is a great book on healing your inner child. The author does a good job of discussing a difficult subject in a professional manner. It is stressed in the book that while this book can help people begin to heal from trauma, this is not a substitute for professional help. People tend to avoid talking about childhood trauma. The author does a great job with this difficult topic.
