  • Do you own your Top 5 books?

    I did a casual stocktake of my bookshelves this morning (I own a collection of around 400 books) and noticed I actually don’t own a physical copy of my top 5 books. My reading has changed over the years and probably use the library more than my younger years but I was still surprised and something I probably should change. Curious to know if there are others out there that own a collection with the same black hole.

    I deeply connected to the author/FMC for her struggles with mental health and depression. Her descriptions of suicidal ideation were intense and triggering at times, but realistic and important to bring awareness to. I am thankful to have overcome a lot of that, but not many are fortunate enough to make it out, whether the struggle is lifelong or ends in death. This brought out some of the same resentment I got when I learned of what early psychology was. I know that the findings were instrumental to healing today, but so many suffered in silence with no relief.

    Hearing this is so heartbreaking. I hope Chanel knows just how many people now know her words, her truth, her story and support her entirely. Oh, and always, f*ck Brock TurneršŸ™‚ā€ā†•ļø

    Reparenting the Inner Child: The New Science of Our Oldest Wounds and How to Heal Them

    Reparenting the Inner Child: The New Science of Our Oldest Wounds and How to Heal Them

    Nicole LePera

    From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of How to Do the Work and How to Be the Love You Seek comes a groundbreaking guide to healing our childhood wounds and rediscovering our full potential As adults, we often fall into patterns that feel irrational or out of character—shutting down, lashing out, people-pleasing, or self-sabotaging. Beneath those reactions lies our inner child, a younger part of us still trying to get its needs met the only way it knows how. We all carry the imprint of our earliest years. Childhood is brief, yet its impact is lifelong. Some parts of us were met with love while other parts were met with silence, criticism, or disapproval. To survive, we learned to adapt—learning to over perform, to hide, or stay small. Most of us made it through with a mix of love and lack. And many of us still protect the parts of ourselves that once felt unsafe. While we can’t change what happened, we can change how it lives within us and impacts our lives today. Reparenting the Inner Child offers a clear, compassionate path to self-integration, combining practical exercises, somatic tools, and guided reflections to help us create the safety, love, and boundaries we've always needed. Through her holistic framework that models individual development, Dr. LePera explains how we can cultivate the emotional maturity and regulation to respond calmly instead of reacting, to embrace desire instead of shame, and to question the stories we've long believed about who we have to be. Enlightening, empowering, and clarifying, Reparenting the Inner Child is a book that will stand the test of time as a comprehensive guide for personal development and healing, and a resource that will forever change the way we understand ourselves.

    Does anyone see a book they read for school or read when they were younger and log it in your finished library?

    I do! I do it because I like to reread a book I read years ago to see if I still like it today. For example: I read Burial Rites for my year 12 English class for literature study and loved it back then. I do hope to reread it soon and see if I feel differently as an adult.
