YOUR SOUL'S INVITATION - Releasing the Need for the Wounded Child - A WORKING JOURNAL - Dale Ryder LCSW

EXPLORE THE WOUNDED PARTS OF SELF WHICH

CREATE UNHEALTHY ATTACHMENTS TO SELF AND OTHERS

Many of us walk around desperately trying to fill the empty void within us with anything that on the surface looks promising. We hook into relationships, jobs, friendships, substances, and adrenaline; letting these things define our reality instead of taking the initiative to define our own.

These patterns are born from a wounded part of ourselves from long ago. We spend most of our time trying to address wounded needs rather than our actual ones.

This journal is designed to help keep the reader focused on their actual needs while identifying the wounded ones which tend to drive us on a daily basis.

The creation for the original version of this working journal was inspired from Dale Ryder's work with families suffering with addiction and traumas. The core message of the journal is similar to her previous journal but has changed and morphed after her experience of great loss and great love over the past 10 years. It is also a companion book to the spiritual journey she wrote titled Surviving Irene: Releasing the Need for the Wounded Child." These two creations have been a labor of love demonstrating Dale's personal growth, as she has helped others navigate theirs.
