Publisher's summary

Dr. Gerry Crete takes you on a journey to encounter all the parts of your inner world and allow them to be seen, heard, known, and loved. As you get to know these parts, you'll discover your innermost self, your spiritual center, and learn how to love yourself in a healthy and enriching way. You'll learn that with God's grace, the inmost self can help relieve us of our burdens of shame, fear, and self-hatred. You will join with St. Paul as he says, "I delight in the law of God, in my inmost self." When your innermost self and your parts work together in freedom and love, you experience inner harmony.

The first step is to hear the cries of our parts, understand their pain, and hear their stories. The litanies and meditations in this book are designed to help you connect with your parts and experience connection with God in a way that is both safe and intimate.

This book is filled with litanies, the voices of our inner parts - sometimes protective, and closed off, and at other times wounded, and fearful -- as they cry out to God for help. Dr. Crete's life's work has been to help people recover from the difficult and painful experiences of the past. He has focused on how we relieve anxiety and live more fulfilling lives and enjoy more meaningful relationships. In this book Dr. Crete offers you his knowledge, insights, and experience in the hopes that you will experience not only relief from anxiety but inner harmony, greater life fulfillment, and a deeper more intimate relationship with God.

If you have experienced severe trauma: sexual abuse, military trauma, torture, the loss of a loved one, spiritual abuse, verbal humiliation, neglect, or emotional abandonment, then this book may provide a way to begin the healing process and grow in resilience.

Spiritual, metaphysical, physical HEALING, perfect blend of faith & psychology.

This book was recommended to me by a Catholic marriage & family therapist as he recognized the relative PTSD he perceived which were associated with countless incidents with an overbearing MIL.

My therapist acknowledged that my wounds of the ❤️ are real, troublesome even to this day, and the pain valid. This book and its use of IFT was life changing.

The guided meditations helped me help the wounded young bride whose bliss was dashed from the day I returned from my honeymoon and the divisive overbearing incidents began. The most painful part was how such distanced & otherwise damaged every close relationship I/we had previoously with extended relatives on his side. This book helped me to begin healing "her," the deeply wounded yet still hopeful, expectant bride.

Although im now mother of 4 children age 14-22, and wife of 25 yrs...my wounded bride, mistooken and mistreated needed tender love and healing. By His grace and mercy I carry on a mostly joyful, life as a nurturing wife, mother, and entrepreneur bc in fact I've always leaned into the PERFECT ❤️ of the Sacred Heart to fill the voids and carry the heart burdens over the years.

The reflections, and activities, including guided meditations at the end of each chapter were almost hypnotic and had an ethereal in nature, gently drawing me closer to The Heart of God, present in my own heart and mind, ever present to heal, protect and ❤️ me. The meditations were truly therapeutic and a supreme blessing. I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK to anyone who is ready and wanting to heal from TRAUMA in any form.
