Mother Hunger
Author: Kelly McDaniel
Publisher: Hay House, Inc
ISBN: 1401960855
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
An insatiable need for sex and love. Periods of overeating or starving. A pattern of unstable and painful relationships. Does this sound painfully familiar? Trauma counselor Kelly McDaniel has seen these traits over and over in clients who feel trapped in cycles of harmful behaviors-and are unable to stop. Many of us find ourselves stuck in unhealthy habits simply because we don't see a better way. With Mother Hunger, McDaniel helps women break the cycle of destructive behavior by taking a fresh look at childhood trauma and its lasting impact. In doing so, she destigmatizes the shame that comes with being under-mothered and misdiagnosed. McDaniel offers a healing path with powerful tools that include therapeutic interventions and lifestyle changes in service to healthy relationships. The constant search for mother love can be a lifelong emotional burden, but healing begins with knowing and naming what we are missing. McDaniel is the first clinician to identify Mother Hunger, which demystifies the search for love and provides the compass that each woman needs to end the struggle with achy, lonely emptiness, and come home to herself.

Scarred
Author: George Molho
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1440195137
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
In 1978, seven-year-old George Molho was kidnapped by his own father. For a year, he survived mental and physical abuse to the point of torture. He found it easier to get used tohell, instead of hoping that heaven was around the corner. George eventually escaped, but surviving the aftermath proved to be much more difficult. Past and present are skillfully woven together to connect the pieces of Molho's childhood and adult life that shaped the man he would become. The old adage 'love conquers all' is splayed open to reveal the inner workings thatwe all seek to understand. George was lucky to learn how to love from his family before his abduction, before his father's cruel version of love was inflicted upon his young body and psyche. Later in life, love compels him to reveal all that happened on the mountainside wherehe left his innocence as a boy. It's not about how hard we get hit; it's about how much we can take and keep moving forward. "Scarred" is a memoir written by a survivor, intended to empower and embolden all who have suffered, survived, and are ready to be set free. ""This will be known as the book that set the literary genre of memoir free." Scarred "reads like fiction while shattering the facade of make believe... Molho becomes the victor of his past and his triumph is contagious."" -Andrea Afra, "Free Press Houston"
