Synopsis

Growing Yourself Back is John Lee's book that thousands of therapists recommend to their clients every year. This lecture will help the listener recognize, prevent, and diffuse regression in ourselves and others. He teaches, for example, that adults cannot be abandoned, they can only be left; if we're feeling abandoned we're regressing. He also reminds us that no matter how overwhelmed we are, adults always have options; if we believe we don't, we're in a regression.
"Growing Yourself Back Up will show you how to:
* develop strong emotional boundaries and convey them to others
* learn the Detour Method that reverses regression
* confront without regressing
* communicate with the authority figures who push your buttons
* minimize regression at family functions
Lee offers hope--as well as practical strategies that work--for conquering those childlike feelings of powerlessness that are almost always rooted in regression.

Most clergymen have misinterpreted the passage “spare the rod, spoil the child” as justification for corporal punishment on children. But the rod in question refers to the Shepherd’s rod with a hook on the end, used to pull sheep out of thorns, away from danger. It was never used for beating them. I......more

If you’re trying to figure yourself out - why you are who you are and do the things you do - this is a book I’d recommend without hesitation. I only discovered the idea of Regression from a podcast about relationships that I was listening to. It was referenced by the guest (I have since forgotten the......more

This book was recommended by my new therapist and I'm blown away by how relevant it is to my life. Through therapy I've learned how my childhood has affected my current self, but this is a totally new way of looking at it. We all regress emotionally at different time for different reasons. I learned......more
