Super Informative

This book taught me so much, as a psychology student I naturally wondered about the roots of my own trauma as I learn about the roots of typical textbook trauma, this book had almost all the answers! Generational trauma is so real, my mom and bestfriend have both borrowed this book to learn more. Awesomely informative!!

A good primer in inherited trauma

I have read a lot of therapeutic books to understand and process my complex childhood...to lessen the pain and build deeper resources for a fulfilling adult life. In general, I take every book with a grain of salt. It’s my observation that practitioners tend to lock into their POV or toolbox and then apply it to everything as a cure-all. That said, every approach has gems of wisdom in it. This book revealed two things to me, which I believe to be true and highly significant to my personal growth.First, there are four channels by which trauma is passed down through the generations: 1) through DNA, in other words, inherited characteristics; 2) environmental, experienced in the womb by the child; 3) behavior, parental patterns that a child/adult replicates in their life; and 4) counter-behavioral, parental patterns that a child/adult reverses but remains locked into. If we think about ourselves or people we know, it’s not unlikely we can see these dynamics at work. Once we see the pattern, then we know that we inherited the disruption. We can take a breath, take ourselves (and our parents) off the hook, and go about the work of healing the family wound.Second, if one has had a troubled relationship with one’s parents, it diminishes the mother- and/or father-energy that one allows into one’s adult life. If those channels are blocked, then we are left with deficits in our relationships, professions, feelings, etc. Whether we repair the relationships or open the channels through personal practices, we must take on the work. And, it feels so good when we do.

I love it

This book is for the adults who are wanting to take a look at your family of origin, and how generational trauma may be impacting your day to day life. This book has an approach that traumatic legacies can be passed down in families over generations including: depression, anxiety, chronic pain, phobias, obsessive thoughts, etc. This book is one that also pairs great with The Body Keeps the Score if you’re familiar with that one.I recommend buying the actual hard copy of this book, there are exercises where you write things down and it’s helpful to have a hard copy. I would say after reading this book, it really just helped me understand myself better. Helped me understand why I may do certain things, or have a certain viewpoint. It builds on the topic of generational trauma, and how we can overcome that. I have loved this book and it’s one I recommend to clients as well if they are wanting to explore topics like this in therapy. It’s very informative, and one that I would say you can’t just casually read.
