John E Bradshaw’s Homecoming re-creates the trans-formative experiences of his workshops, in which participants learn to understand and grieve for the damage done to their inner child, the core self with which we are born and which is injured and hidden when the growing child adapts to life in a dysfunctional family.

Using a wealth of practical techniques, informative case histories and unique questionnaires, John Bradshaw demonstrates how your wounded inner child may be causing you pain.

You’ll learn to gradually, safely, go back to reclaim and nurture that inner child, and literally help yourself grow up again. Homecoming shows you how to:

Validate your inner child through meditations and affirmations – Give your child permission to break destructive family roles and rules – Adopt new rules allowing pleasure and honest self-expression – Deal with anger and difficult relationships – Pay attention to your innermost purpose and desires, and find new joy and energy in living.

Customer Reviews

Homecoming by John Bradshaw by C E (California, USA)

Customers Rating: ★★★★★ 

“John Bradshaw’s “Family”, “Healing the Shame that Binds You” and “Homecoming” changed my life. The first showed me where I came from and how I got to be the way I was. It gave me understanding, and the knowledge that I wasn’t crazy and hopeless. I was taught to be that way.

The second book helped me to identify the specific ways it all happened, to remember it, and then it gave me hope that I could unlearn it all and be retrained. I could learn ways to change things to make things better.

The third book gave me direction, and tools to correct my behaviors and dysfunctional behaviors, and the ability to change my life. To really heal, without fear.

Now years later, I am happy and doing very well.

I whole-heartedly recommend these three books to anyone that is having any relationship problems or childhood issues, any type of addiction or codependent issues, feelings of inadequacy, insecurity or loss of self esteem.

In these books, there is knowledge that will heal you, there is hope to change, there is courage to gain and there is a better life.

My gratitude to you, Mr. John Bradshaw!

“If you are tired of going around in circles with addictions, self conflicts and other things that have developed from your childhood…. this book is for you. John Bradshaw shows us how we have come to be in the place we are in at this stage of life. He shows how to stop the cycles of repeating the same negative things over and over. He shows how we all played a roll in the family and where we might have been in that roll.

Why we are alcholics.. care takers… over achivers… or other addictions in life. He helps us to tune into that small self that still remains in us… even as adults. His technic of using the inner child to write with the non-perdominate hand is something unique in it’s nature. He takes us from toddler stage thru to the self we are today. This book covers all kinds of things that have happened to many in life… like abandonment issues… children of alcholics and the roll each individual plays… the sexually abused… and many other issues that many of us have today.

If you are wanting to stop the cycle and live a more productive and positive way? If you are willing to work at seeing how and why you came to be where you are now? Then this book is for you. It is of a greater benifit to have a counsler. Hoping this books helps all as much as it has helped me! Many wishes of campassion and happiness to all!”

Fantastically Helpful Book – A Must Read! by Jayne Adderley (UK)

“Wow! Bradshaw picks up where his book, “Healing the Shame That Binds You” left off. He helps the reader to identify problems that arose out of his/her family setting and/or traumatic settings in early life. He then goes on to explain how one’s past may well be having a negative impact on their CURRENT, adult life.

Finally he helps the reader to eliminate and neutralize those negative impacts and truly become a whole and complete adult. If you find that your life is still going around in circles after reading Healing the Shame that Binds you, then you NEED this book! It is LOADED with pratical information and application. (If it doesn’t become required reading for therapist courses abroad I’ll be very suprised. It is fantastic! ) No..you are NOT a screw up according to Bradshaw.”
