<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>""From the founder of the abandonment recovery movement, a three-step program for stopping self-defeating behaviors, such as overeating, procrastination, accumulating debt, and creating relationship dysfunction. While the 'inner child' carries unresolved childhood issues, the 'outer child' acts them out, and both 'children' can be healed by cultivating an inner 'wise adult.'"--Provided by publisher"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Take Control of Your Life</b> <p/>Chances are, you've already had run-ins with your Outer Child -- the self-sabotaging, bungling, and impulsive part of your personality. This misguided, hidden nemesis blows your diet, overspends, and ruins your love life. Your Outer Child acts out and fulfills your legitimate childlike needs and wants in the wrong place, at the wrong time, and in counterproductive ways: It goes for immediate gratification and the quick fix in spite of your best-laid plans. <p/>Now, in a revolutionary rethinking of the link between emotion and behavior, veteran psychotherapist Susan Anderson offers a three-step program to tame your Outer Child's destructive behavior. This dynamic, transformational set of strategies -- action steps that act like physical therapy for the brain -- calms your Inner Child, strengthens your Adult Self, releases you from the self-blame and shame at the root of Outer Child issues, and paves new neural pathways that can lead to more productive behavior. The result is happiness, fulfillment, self-mastery, and self-love.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An enormous help to anyone looking to let go of past disappointments and self-recrimination and get on with the essential work of healing, building boundaries, and acquiring the skill to reach your goals."<br><b>-- John Bradshaw, #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Homecoming</i></b> <p/>"With a program designed to undo primal fears, [Anderson] tackles such topics as lowered self-esteem, lovesick feelings, food urges, diet, chronic depression, procrastination, heartache, and a primary source of conflict with relationships, 'enormous emotional suction cups.'
