Title: Don't know much about inner child work
Post by: alovelycreature on November 16, 2014, 03:27:40 PM
I was wondering if anyone had any book suggestions for inner child work? Or links? I read some of the other posts about letter writing. Is there a certain state of mind or level of recovery needed for starting this kind of work? Or is this mostly done with a therapist? Curious.

Hi Lovely,

Healing the Child Within, by Charles Whitfield is the classic book

Thanks Rain! I am actually ordering the Walker book, but wanted to add some other books to get free shipping  ;). I probably should work on the Walker book and focus on my inner critic first. Thanks for the helpful suggestions :)

oh, Lovely ...do check out the Amazon link in the Out of the Fog web site so a % of your purchase goes to OOTS.   It does not cost you at all.

And, we all have soooo many books here to refer ...always a way to get to $35 free shipping!   ha!

Hi Lovely - If you check the other two threads in this forum you'll see some ideas for working on your own.  Pam especially has done a lot of IC work so you might even want to PM her for some suggestions.
