Bruce Duncan Perry Knihy

Opýtali ste sa niekedy samých seba: „Prečo som to urobil?“ Alebo: „Prečo jednoducho nedokážem ovládnuť svoje správanie?“ Možno ste sa zamysleli nad niekým iným: „Čo to je s ním? Prečo je taký?“Pri skúmaní vlastných emócií je ľahké skĺznuť do obviňovania samého seba a mať na seba aj na svoje okolie príliš vysoké požiadavky. Je však načase, aby sme si položili inú otázku. V hlboko osobných rozhovoroch ponúkajú Oprah Winfrey a psychiater a uznávaný odborník na psychologické traumy z detstva Dr. Bruce Perry prelomovú a dôležitú zmenu pohľadu – posun od otázky „Čo vám je?“ na „Čo sa vám stalo?“.Známa moderátorka sa v knihe podelí o príbehy zo svojej minulosti, pričom na vlastnej skúsenosti ilustruje zdravotné i psychické problémy, ktoré pramenia zo stretnutia s traumou a nepriaznivými podmienkami v mladom veku. V rozhovoroch sa s doktorom Perrym zameriavajú na pochopenie ľudí, ich správania a samých seba. Ide tu o jemný, ale významný posun v našom vnímaní traumy, ktorý nám pomôže porozumieť vlastnej minulosti a vyčistiť si cestu do budúcnosti, pretože nám umožní otvoriť dvere pre uzdravenie a postupné vybudovanie si duševnej odolnosti.
