Books About Reparenting
Mommy, I'm Walking by Dave Hogg
(1) It’s Never Too Late to Be Happy: Reparenting Yourself for Happiness by Muriel James
Product notes–
“In It’s Never Too Late to Be Happy: Reparenting Yourself for Happiness, Muriel James, coauthor of the 4-million-copy best-seller Born to Win, presents a clear, layman-friendly self-reparenting program through which the reader can actually create a new internal parent–one which is fully functional, supporting, encouraging, and loving–to replace the old parent figure, whose negative psychological messages consistently thwart one’s hopes for happiness.”
“In the field of psychology, self-reparenting is recognized as a highly effective strategy for pursuing happiness. Thousands of people worldwide have used it successfully to discover what went wrong in childhood and throughout their lives that restricted their freedom to succeed and be happy to move from discontentment to happiness–reparenting themselves for a fuller, happier life.”
“It’s Never Too Late to Be Happy presents coherent, straightforward insights into how personality is developed during a person’s early years, how parents use and misuse the parenting skills that influence personality, how children react to negative or inconsistent messages, and many other issues that work together to prohibit both satisfaction and happiness in later life. Combined with chapter by chapter self-analysis exercises, these insights will lead any reader through the reparenting process which will invariably lead to greatly increased happiness–at any age.”

Product notes:
“Self Parenting: The Complete Guide to Your Inner Conversations is the classic and original how-to book defining the concept of “self-parenting.” Many of us grew up within a parental environment that did not support our childhood needs for love, support, and nurturing.”
“As adults, we mentally continue the same patterns as an “Inner Parent” that left us feeling alone and abandoned as a child. By beginning the daily practice of positive Self-Parenting, the negative outer parenting patterns taught as a child (and subsequently internalized as an adult) can be recognized and reversed.”
“The foundation of the Self Parenting is the daily practice of the Self-Parenting Exercises, a thirty-minute session of cognitive interaction between the Inner Parent and Inner Child. During these daily half-hour sessions Illustrated In the book, the reader learns how to love, support, and nurture his or her Inner Child as well as increase their awareness of the profound implications of their Inner Conversations in the “real world.”
