[GET] Toxic Parents: Overcoming Their Hurtful Legacy and Reclaiming Your Life - AudioBook + PDF
Are you the child of toxic parents?

When you were a child...

• Did your parents tell you you were bad or worthless?
• Did your parents use physical pain to discipline you?
• Did you have to take care of your parents because of their problems?
• Were you often frightened of your parents?
• Did your parents do anything to you that had to be kept secret?

Now that you’re an adult...

• Do your parents still treat you as if you were a child?
• Do you have intense emotional or physical reactions after spending time with your parents?
• Do your parents control you with threats or guilt? Do they manipulate you with money?
• Do you feel that no matter what you do, it’s never good enough for your parents?

In this remarkable self-help guide, Dr. Susan Forward draws on case histories and the real-life voices of adult children of toxic parents to help you free yourself from the frustrating patterns of your relationship with your parents — and discover a new world of self-confidence, inner strength, and emotional independence.

A quote from the book:

Quote:Our parents plant mental and emotional seeds in us - seeds that grow as we do. In some families, these are seeds of love, respect, and independence. But in many others, they are seeds of fear, obligation, or guilt. If you belong to this second group, this book is for you.

IMO, even if you belong to the first group, you can still benefit from this book because it provides an opportunity to be able to look yourself from your children's point of view. This can help in being a better parent yourself.

This book has got plenty of positive reviews. Personally too, I found it very useful.

No degree of positive thinking and self-help efforts might be useful to you if you still let your parents' negative influence control you from within you, worse being you not even be aware of it.

The author, a qualified psychotherapist, has touched the subject quite deeply IMO. The narrator too has done an excellent job. Perfect 10

Although the PDF version is readily available at Google, I could find the AudioBook version online only with some difficulty.

So I have shared it here for our members, in spite of my very slow internet upload speed.

Reps are appreciated, and your reviews might be useful for other members. Thanks.

On a related note for newbies :

I have been using Sony walkman NWZW273S [ http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I05EFO4 ] to listen to audio books during my morning walk - every day - for more than the past 15 months.

I find it immensely useful because it is lightweight and compact.

Using it, I have listened to plenty of audiobooks during the past year - reading those many would have taken ages for me.

I see (listen to) video courses from bbhf too, extracting the audio from videos using " Pazera Free Audio Extractor " [ http://www.pazera-software.com/products/...extractor/ ] .

For text and PDF files, I use Balabolka [ http://www.cross-plus-a.com/balabolka.htm ] to convert them to mp3 files - in which I use Ivona voices [ https://www.ivona.com/ ] which I usually get from torrent sites like https://pirateproxy.tv/torrent/8648479/I..._voices%29 .

Occasionally I will need to use MP3Gain [ http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net ] to raise the volume of feeble mp3 files to a desired, uniform level.


PS:

I am aware that some people are not comfortable using Sony walkman NWZW273S because of the perceived difficulty in making it work; however, every time I encounter any problem with it, I always am able to solve it just using the information at:

https://us.en.kb.sony.com/app/answers/de...e-computer

and

https://community.sony.com/t5/Walkman-Pl...d-p/511934

Hope this additional information is useful at least to some of our members who think of buying a portable audio player.

(Please note, I always use it during morning walk/workouts, I do not use it while swimming.)

You may download the .pdf file here:

https://mega.nz/#F!ZwcFiSAZ!Ubf2Mm_eWYkrf6zef_qu0Q

And as mentioned by v555 in the original post, the resource links provided to convert a .pdf file to .mp3 might come in handy.

Much appreciate v555's effort in providing links to valuable information and tools that he finds useful and sharing them for our benefit. Repped!

Would someone be kind enough to mirror the MP3 and PDF from the OP - those links are dead and mega doesn't work here at all for just the PDF.

BTW, that headset MP3 player is cute - but by now only for sale used and for like $70.

Another option to do stuff like the OP suggests is to use an older smartphone to play MP3s along with a bluetooth headset.
You can get decent ones that are very light for as low as $7 from amazon or gearbest (if you don't mind the long shipping times...).

Thanks.
I totally despise board spammers and spambots !!!

If you do not have access to Susan Forward's work, 'No More Mr Nice Guy' by Dr Robert Glover is excellent too - both of which are unique in their approach.

Here is the direct download link:
