Synopsis

Understand yourself better through exploring your own emotional inheritance with this designed interactive workbook from international bestselling author Dr. Galit Atlas.

We all carry the experiences of our parents and our grandparents within us-their dreams, their pain, their memories, their secrets. It is this emotional inheritance that impacts who we are and how we address the challenges in our lives. In her international bestseller Emotional Inheritance, Dr. Galit Atlas shared stories from her patients and from her own life that show these links, and now she invites you on a further journey to think, feel, and grow.

This beautifully designed workbook will help you unlock your full potential through a series of writing prompts and thoughtful exercises. In this essential self-help guide you will:

Explore: Examine your upbringing and understand new things about yourself and your family's history.

Dig Deep: Discover what you don't know about your family, and pay attention to what these gaps may mean in your own narrative.

Follow the Clues: This workbook will lead you to surprising insights into the patterns of your past, such as the meaning of your name, the story behind your birth story, and the signs of survivor guilt.

Reflect: Journal and welcome the feelings and dreams that can show up when you open your mind.

Heal: Change doesn't happen in one day, allow yourself to come back to these exercises and learn from your answers over time.

Unpacking your emotional inheritance is a profound process. This workbook will help you connect the dots from your past, present, and future to find endless emotional possibilities and a path to happiness and growth.

Don't miss the insightful book Emotional Inheritance, "Galit Atlas is not only a gifted psychoanalyst, but a gifted writer as well" (Dani Shapiro, author of Inheritance).
