Synopsis

We cannot escape life’s wounds. They come with the normal wear and tear of human existence.

In this engaging and eye-opening book, you will discover how you have been impacted by early experiences with primary caregivers who provided either Too Much, Too Little, or Just Right emotionally. Transforming Wounds into Wisdom: Change Your Attitudes and Save Your Life makes it clear, however, that whatever unhealed emotional injuries you sustained as a result of hurtful childhood experiences are not life sentences—they are opportunities for ongoing personal growth.

More specifically, Jolyn Davidson shows you the way to heal those old emotional wounds and to change the self-defeating attitudes that have arisen from them. She offers valuable and useful tools that will help you free yourself from the tenacious ties that have been binding you to your painful past. The empowering resources she provides will make it possible for you to generate new attitudes, which will then lead to deeper, more satisfying relationships with your family, friends, and yourself.

Ultimately, this profound book is about Hope—Healing—Wholeness. It is a road map that will arm you with not only greater understanding but also an enhanced ability to transform your emotional wounds into wisdom both by dismantling old attitudes and by fashioning new ones. And the wisdom, strength, and capacity to care for your needs in healthy ways that you have acquired on your heroic journey will make it possible for you to create a more meaningful and richer life.
