Am I just destined to repeat the mistakes of my parents? In Parenting from the Inside Out, child psychiatrist Daniel J. Siegel, M.D., and early childhood expert Mary Hartzell, M.Ed., explore the extent to which our childhood experiences actually do shape the way we parent. Drawing upon stunning new findings in neurobiology and attachment research, they explain how interpersonal relationships directly impact the development of the brain, and offer parents a step-by-step approach to forming a deeper understanding of their own life stories, which will help them raise compassionate and resilient children. Born out of a series of parents' workshops that combined Siegel's cutting-edge research on how communication impacts brain development with Hartzell's thirty years of experience as a child-development specialist and parent educator, Parenting from the Inside Out guides parents through creating the necessary foundations for loving and secure relationships with their children.

![]() Rating: - Excellent read, stunningly provocative and forward thinking!Seigel is an amazing author with fascinating insight into the mind and body connections and the importance of attachment. This is a great read even for someone who is not yet a parent, but wanting to prepare themselves to healthfully connect with others. Rating: - Children, people, communities that thriveWhether you are a parent or not this book is an outstanding read. It is a collaborative work with Daniel Siegel, MD and Mary Hartzell, M.Ed. Simplified read for healing the child within as well as learning new ways to parent our children so they thrive, which ultimately creates a community that thrives. This is a book that will assist anyone that wishes to change the ways in which we understand our experiences and how that understanding creates the quality of relationships we have in the present. It truly offers what the subtitle reads: How a deeper self-understanding can help you raise children who thrive. I would give it a 10 star were it available. Rating: - Great BookThis book is very interesting and provides a very useful and unique perspective to parenting. Rating: - Recognizing and Dealing with the internal Father and MotherThe majority of the grown-ups have vowed never to do and treat their children they way their own parents treated them. Unfortunately, it is not so simple. All of this history has been internalized and is below the level of our awareness. This book gives accurate keys to revealing our `internalized - shadow - parent' and dealing with them. The authors understand our problem and point to very helpful methods of creating the change in the parent model and translating it into simple behavioral approaches with their child. They do a very good job of this. An easy-read, they have simplified a great of technical, psychological material and made it accessible to the average lay person. This is a great book that should be on your parenting library shelf to refer to again and again. Jeffrey L. Fine, PhD, Psychologist: Author of: - "The Art of Conscious Parenting" Rating: - The BEST parenting book out there!If you can handle some somewhat heavy, technical reading, I believe the heart and soul of this book will shout out loud and clear: Emotional Intelligence and the understanding of Attachment Theory is key to becoming a great parent. As a Christian counselor focused on a developmental perspective, I spend a good deal of my time with the youth and family population. I am also an EMDR therapist working with adolescents and adults with issues of childhood trauma. Multi generational patterns, family systems issues and attachment/relational styles play a key role in effective parenting and this book does a wonderful job of illuminating us to these facts. I plan on using this book as a meaningful reference in my upcoming classes and seminars. An excellent follow up read is "Why You Do The Things You Do" by Dr. Tim Clinton and Dr. Gary Sibcy. |
