This book is 🔥fire🔥 for learning how to create new habits with easy to follow steps. This is a great motivator and helps you to combat the shame spirals as they come when we "fail" a new habit - especially if you have executive functioning issues..!
This book can be read in any order and can help you work through: Inner child work, parental wounds, trauma & the body, learning to do the work, trauma bonds, boundaries and more!
A fabulous resource for learning about epigenetics (generational trauma) and the impact of passed down anxiety/phobias, chronic pain, suicidality, depression, OCD, trauma, etc.
A book outlining the impact of intergenerational trauma passed down from mothers to daughters. Educational, validating, and healing.
Trigger Warning: This book can be emotionally intense at times.
A great resource for learning about your attachment style and how it impacts your relationships with others.
Educational and directive - this book is great for those who have grown up with emotionally immature parents and have suffered as a result of that.
A great parenting resource for navigating diet culture, body image, fatphobia, challenging stigmas, and ways to talk about food and our bodies with children.
A book written by a fellow therapist on the impact of being a daughter raised by a narcissistic mother and ways to heal the motherwound.
One of my favorite books on boundaries and how to implement them within your life.
I love this book for learning about the menstrual cycle, how it impacts menstruating individuals, and ways to care for yourself through each phase. I find it helpful for increasing mind-body connection and for working on being present with yourself.
A comprehensive and educational book on the female reproductive system, as well as topics like: PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, PMDD, pelvic floor dysfunction, and more. Great if you didn't receive education about this!
A great read about the impact and effects of birth control on women; ranging from hormones, mood, attraction, and more. This is a comprehensive look at women's health and the role birth control has (both "positive" and "negative") to help women be more informed about their bodies and healthcare. 💊
How to harness your strengths as an eldest daughter and cope with the impact of perfectionism, parentification, and more.
A good starting point for learning money management tips (saving, investing, debt pay off), the connection between emotions and spending, and ways to gain independence financially. 💸
A comprehensive look at C-PTSD; great for anyone looking to learn more about it and the lasting impacts of C-PTSD.
