Hi Zan,

 

Would recommend some books:

 

Pia Mellody, " Facing Codependence " and the workbook that goes with it

" Breaking Free. " Pia looks at codependence as a broken relationship

with the self. Also Charles Whitfield is VERY good, his books.

 

Also Mellody Beattie, " Codependents Guide To The Twelve Steps. " She

also has a daily meditation book too, along with some other

codependency books.

 

The only thing I have found with studying psychology on any topic is

that they don't believe that your feelings have any effect on your

health physically or mentally, so they urge you to feel all your

feelings and negative ones -- as much as you like. If done

regularly, in my opinion, it can then become an unsavory habit of the

mind, one that is difficult then to gain control over again, if it

gets into a negative pattern. Also I know that negative emotions are

very damaging to the people harboring them and the ones aroung them.

 

For me, I look at the material and weigh it against what I believe

spiritually and then take the good ideas from it.

The 80 20 rule might help. In any interaction, keep the focus 80 per cent within yourself -- what am I feeling? What's happening in my body, and mind? What do I need? Is there something I need to do? The 20 per cent can be focused on the other, with the benefit of your self awareness. Good luck.Love,Jagat Kaur
