This thought-provoking, soul-enriching, life-changing self-help book is for people who seek truth and wisdom to finally stop taking things personally.
If you have ever felt frustrated, confused, and in pain, and kept feeling grievously wronged-despite sincerely wanting to forgive and move on, then this book is for you. These readers want a holistic approach to what they're bumping up against in the heart, mind, and body that makes some wrongs harder to let go.
Psychotherapist, Victoria Kennedy, shares deeply relatable personal stories, answers to your most burning questions, tools to release hurts that have glommed onto the psyche, and her 5-step Never Personal Process (NPP) to realize there's nothing to forgive. She weaves psychology and neuroscience with ancient spiritual wisdom to reveal how:
- We're wired to take things personally (so it's not our fault), and we can change our default settings
- We often struggle to "get over it," not due to a lack of empathy or care; we just need to know where to focus our love and attention when we're hurting
- Forgiveness alone often doesn't work because we're bypassing necessary steps
- We may break unhealthy relationship patterns by extending compassion, with discernment
- We can avoid falling into bitterness and resentment by keeping our hearts open and boundaries clear
By the end of It's Never Personal, you'll be able to reclaim shattered pieces of the self in a way that honors the tapestry of our lives, redeeming our stories and inviting others to join us.
