Free Audio Book : It Didn’t Start with You, By Mark Wolynn

This innovative method addresses the impact of trauma transmitted across family generations, a concept explored by a renowned specialist in the area. The book delves into how emotional and psychological issues like depression, anxiety, chronic pain, phobias, and obsessive thoughts might not just stem from an individual's life experiences or brain chemistry. Instead, they could originate from the experiences of ancestors, a notion now gaining support through recent scientific discoveries. This theory suggests that traumatic experiences can be inherited from our forebears.

"It Didn't Start with You" builds upon the insights of experts in post-traumatic stress, such as neuroscientist Rachel Yehuda from Mount Sinai School of Medicine and psychiatrist Bessel van der Kolk, author of "The Body Keeps the Score." The book discusses how memories and emotions from past traumas, even those forgotten or unspoken, can persist and influence our emotional and physical well-being. Mark Wolynn, a trailblazer in the study of inherited family trauma, brings over two decades of therapeutic experience to this book. He introduces his Core Language Approach, a practical method for identifying and addressing these inherited emotional legacies. The book includes self-assessment tools and techniques like genogram creation and visualization exercises, offering paths to healing and recovery. "It Didn't Start with You" presents a groundbreaking way to address deep-seated issues that traditional methods might not fully resolve.
