The Inner Child lives within all of us, it's the part of us that feels emotions and is playful, intuitive, and creative. Usually hidden under our grown-up personas, the Inner Child holds the key to intimacy in relationships, physical and emotional well-being, recovery from addictions, and the creativity and wisdom of our inner selves. Recovery of Your Inner Child is the only book that shows you how to have a firsthand experience of your Inner Child—actually feeling its emotions and recapturing its sense of wonder—by writing and drawing with your non-dominant hand. Expanding on the highly acclaimed technique introduced in The Power of Your Other Hand, here Dr. Capacchione shares scores of hands-on activities that will help you to embrace your Vulnerable Child and your Angry Child, find the Nurturing Parent within, and finally discover the Creative and Magical Child that can heal your life. Review: Great exercises - The exercises in the book are creative, fun, and useful! The way the book is written is easy to understand as well. Review: gentle, eye-opening read that helps you reconnect with yourself - I picked up Recovery of Your Inner Child because I wanted something that went a little deeper than the usual self-help books, and this one really did. It’s written in such a compassionate way that it feels like the author is walking you through the healing process step by step. The exercises are simple but powerful, especially if you’re ready to look inward and do some emotional work. What I appreciated most is how approachable it feels, no heavy jargon, just honest guidance that helps you understand your patterns and learn to care for the parts of yourself you might’ve ignored. It’s the kind of book you can take your time with, maybe journal alongside, and come back to when you need a little grounding or self-compassion.

fun and beneficial for all!
This book is insightful for everyone. I agree it is way more beneficial for people with mental health problems or people who are having trouble with self love but I still enjoy this book and doing the activities. My husband and I have been doing the activities together and it's been great bonding time for us, as well as learning new things about each other.

Best Book on Inner Child I've found
I have been trying to find good books on Inner Child and they've been too technical or just hard to relate to, until I found this book. I borrowed it from the library, and once I was 75% thru the book in a day and a half, I ordered it from Amazon to keep and do the exercises at home. This is a great resource if you already have some familiarity with Inner Child work.

It’s a nice book but only benefit for certain people.
I brought this book so I can actually expand my imagination and creativity. But I made a mistake this book is for people who have mental issues, and therapist even recommended this. as I was doing the drawing technique it made me uncomfortable and confused. But then I realized this book wasn’t for me. Nice book, Good grammar, Creative art.

Hard work but very revealing and healing!
I have just begun diving into inner child work but am already finding this book to be extremely helpful. The reading coupled with the exercises have been a tremendous supplement to therapy.

Great technique for reaching your inner child.
I bought this book since it sounded promising for helping me connect with my abused inner child. I gave it to my therapist to see if she thought it would help. She said it was worth a try so I did the work in her office on one of my visits. I was amazed at the depth of emotion it brought up for me. I was sobbing and conversing with my inner child and I was drained with the emotion by the end. I would truly recommend this as a therapeutic tool, but would caution you to do the work with a trained therapist because the feelings can be overwhelming, especially if you suffered from some major abuse.

Recovery of Your Inner Child
GREAT BOOK...I have been trying to contact my inner child all my life...being a victim of abuse through out my child hood, I NOW realize I was locked away inside of an adult...trying to protect myself from further pain, missing out sooooo much of my life. This book is easy to understand with drawings, words anyone who was abused as a child can relate to. Very comforting. I have read the book through, now I have gone back and turned several pages down..which have helped me understand about myself With an awesome therapist I have, with this book, in time I will be able to see the light at the end of my tunnel...

Wonderful
One of my favourite books of all the time. The wisdom and exercises are brillian, it helped me in my most difficult time of my life when I was close to death. It inspired to continue this journey and find streigh and wisdom in my inner child. I still use the exercises quite often, it is a book which I will go for support over and over again. I love this author and her wisdom and gentle guidance.
