About this listen
Harville Hendrix has illuminated the paths to healthy, loving relationships in his New York Times bestsellers Getting the Love You Want and Keeping the Love You Find. Now, he and his coauthor and wife, Helen Hunt, bring us to a new understanding of the most profound love of all -- by helping parents nurture their own development as they encourage emotional wholeness in their children.
In Giving The Love That Heals, Harville Hendrix and Helen Hunt help us explore:
Maximizer and Minimizer parents -- the defensive styles that internally shape what we say and how we interact with our children.
Safety, Support, and Structure -- how to give children what they really need from us.
Modeling Adulthood -- recovering our innate wholeness to provide a model of adulthood for our children that will preserve their innate wholeness.
In this profound, groundbreaking audiobook, Harville Hendrix and Helen Hunt lead us through an extraordinary process of growth as we help our children to become healthy, responsible, and caring people.

Nearly all of us have an ideal of what a "dream" relationship would be, but very few of us are living in one. Three decades of research and clinical practice have led Harville Hendrix to pinpoint four essential "non-negotiable" keys to creating and sustaining a healthy, loving relationship. In this workshop, he will help couples: understand what prevents them from achieving the type of relationship they aspire to; discover how to cultivate those habits that can create the conditions that permit such a relationship to blossom; and practice the Imago Dialogue, a three-step process that offers us a highly effective tool to transform our dream about our relationship into reality.

Have you ever wondered "Why did I do that?" or "Why can't I just control my behavior?" Others may judge our reactions and think, "What's wrong with that person?" When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question. Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”

Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

This is a book for working women and mothers who are ready to release the culturally inherited belief that their worth is equal to their productivity, and instead create a personal and professional life that's based on presence, meaning, and joy. As opposed to focusing on "fitting it all in", time management, and leaning in, as so many books geared at ambitious women do, this book embraces the notion that through doing less women can have - and be - more.

Story
We often complain about our fractured mental lives and feel beset by outside forces that destroy our focus and disrupt our peace of mind. Any defense against this, Crawford argues, requires that we reckon with the way attention sculpts the self. Crawford investigates the intense focus of ice hockey players and short-order chefs, the quasi-autistic behavior of gambling addicts, the familiar hassles of daily life, and the deep, slow craft of building pipe organs.

Nearly half of working women in the United States are now their household's main breadwinner. And yet, the majority of women still aren't being brought up to think like breadwinners. In fact, they're actually discouraged - by institutional bias and subconscious beliefs - from building their own wealth, pursuing their full earning potential, and providing for themselves and others financially. In Think Like a Breadwinner, financial expert Jennifer Barrett reframes what it really means to be a breadwinner.

Story
Most of us know we own too much stuff. We feel the weight and burden of our clutter, and we tire of cleaning and managing and organizing. While excess consumption leads to bigger houses, faster cars, fancier technology, and cluttered homes, it never brings happiness. Rather, it results in a desire for more. It redirects our greatest passions to things that can never fulfill, and it distracts us from the very lives we wish we were living. But it doesn't have to be this way.

This is a book for working women and mothers who are ready to release the culturally inherited belief that their worth is equal to their productivity, and instead create a personal and professional life that's based on presence, meaning, and joy. As opposed to focusing on "fitting it all in", time management, and leaning in, as so many books geared at ambitious women do, this book embraces the notion that through doing less women can have - and be - more.

If you could sum up Giving the Love That Heals in three words, what would they be?
What made the experience of listening to Giving the Love That Heals the most enjoyable?Perhaps the learning resonated with me, personally, because I feel it expanded my mind. I think, perhaps the author’s perspective evoked, in me, a deeper understanding, of the positive and negative communication styles, in parenting, that parents, I included, typically use, to communicate with our children.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Giving the Love That Heals?
What other book might you compare Giving the Love That Heals to and why?I would compare the book to Janice Benson's book entitled, Black Children: Their Roots, Culture and Learning Styles. In Dr. Benson’s book, she takes the nurturing skills parents inherently bring into the parenting relationship and profoundly expand that knowledge base, into a sharper, richer, surgical application of parenting skills.
Which character – as performed by Harville Hendrix – was your favorite?
The repetitive dialogue between parents and children were most instrumental to me; there was not a particular one that blew me away over another. However, the consistent interactions kept reminding me of the positive and negative experiences, with my own child; and these examples, individually and collectively, were journeys into my reflections with my daughter and offered me a one-on-one classroom with myself, for examination and correction.
What did you learn from Giving the Love That Heals that you would use in your daily life?
Henceforth, the vision that I will bring to parenting my daughter is perpetuity. I have resolved in my mind to always look prospectively at my daughter and always to see her as the infinite life span, that she is.Any additional comments?
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?Most of the book was challenging to absorb, namely because, with each conviction, there was a realization, that maybe there were times when, the absence of those parenting skills, in me, perhaps, caused me to bring grief, to my own child; and this is a thought that gives me much grief. For me, it was impossible to think that I may have caused my child pain, without causing pain, to myself.
