"Breaking Free From Your Past and Creating a Life of Your Own"

"Many of our personal distresses and conflicts spring from our family legacy of thoughts, attitudes and behaviors. Alcohalism, debilitating anger, and feelings about money, sex, and work, indeed, much of our inner life and outer actions, can all be traced back to our family of origin. 'The Family Patterns Workbook' offers you strategies for assessing your family's dynamics and teaches you ways to make the healthy changes you want in how those patterns play out in your life, In it you are encouraged to both discover and evaluate our memories, feelings, and experience through a a much-tested journaling program and thus create a more conscious and healthy inner life."

"Carolyn Foster shows how to uncover, slowlh and carefully, the truths of your family experiences. Working with this book, you will learn to appreciate the strenghth of your weaknesses and the unrealized assets you can draw upon as you seek out your own goals."

"Carolyn Foster, M.A. is a pioneer of the use of writing for growth and personal insight. She teaches, lectures and gives seminars and workshops on personal growth, recovery, creativity, family patterns, and life transitions. She lives in San Jose, California."
