Depression. Anxiety. Chronic pain. Obsessive thoughts. The roots of these difficulties may not have originated with us—but in our parents, grandparents, or even great-grandparents. As a pioneer in the field of inherited family trauma, Mark Wolynn has worked with individuals and groups on a therapeutic level for more than thirty years. Now you can work with him too: The Official It Didn’t Start with You Workbook, the companion to his million-copy bestseller It Didn’t Start with You, offers a pragmatic and easy-to-follow guide to his method, the Core Language Approach. Through a series of activities, prompts, and practices, you may discover that the afflictions you’ve suffered from your whole life are really just symptoms of a hidden family legacy. This workbook is a transformative experience that will teach you how to heal the past, reconnect with yourself, and reclaim your life, health, and vitality.
