Description

A groundbreaking approach to transforming traumatic legacies passed down in families over generations, by an acclaimed expert in the field.

'Groundbreaking' – Tara Brach

Depression. Anxiety. Chronic pain. Phobias. Obsessive thoughts. The evidence is compelling – the root of these difficulties may reside in the traumas of our parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents. The latest research affirms that traumatic experience is passed on to future generations and that this emotional inheritance, hidden in everything from our gene expression to everyday language, plays a greater role in our health than ever previously understood.

Building on the work of leading experts in neuroscience and post-traumatic stress, Mark Wolynn has developed a pioneering approach to identifying and breaking these inherited family patterns. Having worked with individuals and groups on a therapeutic level for more than twenty years, It Didn't Start With You is his accessible, pragmatic, and transformative guide to a method that has helped thousands of people reclaim their lives.
