I liked this book, it helped me understand myself better, why I do what I do and feel about myself the way I do. Most eye opening book I ever read, next to FUEL, another great book by HG. Xx
Rebecca,
I think it’s valuable that this book resonated with you. If someone had co-dependent patterns and didn’t see themselves in the descriptions the book provides I’d think there’d be less chance they’d be able to make changes to their decision-making or the relationships they gravitated towards.
What did you recognise specifically – and this could be in intimate partnerships or in more general relationships with others – with friends, acquaintances or colleagues. I believe we show our schools and cadres in all our relationships with others even if (like anything) an emotional situation can over-charge our reactions. I know my schools and cadres are with me all the time – on this blog, at work, riding a train, crossing a crowded street, in a movie theatre, at a friend’s house or in an intimate relationship. For me it’s partly about controlling that environment as much as I can so my schools/cadres don’t bump up against it so much.
Do you see co-dependent behaviours happening in several areas of your life – in different types of relationships or interactions?
