Daughter Detox: Recovering from an Unloving Mother and Reclaiming Your Life
Peg Streep
science-based self-help book, the result of over a decade of research, Detox Daughter offers vital information, guidance, and real-world strategies for healing childhood experiences and building authentic self-esteem for the daughters of an unloved mother. Writer Peg Streep outlines several distinct but interrelated steps in the journey of reclaiming your life from the effects of a toxic childhood: OPENING, DISTRIBUTING, REPAIRING, DISCONNECTING, RECOVERY, DIRECTING. Each step is clearly explained and detailed with other women's stories, approaches drawn from psychology and other disciplines, and unique exercises. The book will help the reader to cope with their own self-doubt and will give an awareness of how the treatment of the mother continues to shape your behavior even today. The book's message is straightforward: What you experienced as a child should not continue to hold you back in life. What has been learned can be unlearned with effort.
