In this revised edition of the bestseller Healing the Hidden Self, Barbara Shlemon Ryan deals with eight major stages of human development--Prenatal, Birth, Infancy, Childhood, Adolescence, Early Adulthood, and Seasoned Citizens--showing how hurt and damage to the inner self is possible, damage that may not be recognized right away, or that may not manifest itself until a later stage. With insights drawn from forty years in the healing ministry, she offers new examples and explanations of the types of problems that can be encountered during a particular stage of our growth. At the end of each section Ryan includes a specific prayer to help begin the healing process. Healing the Hidden Self emphasizes the importance of inner healing for all who seek a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and with others. It's practical, how-to approach makes it an invaluable book particularly since there are so few priests, ministers, or counselors to help those in the beginning stages of the inner healing process.

Healing the Hidden Self,
By
This review is from: Healing the Hidden Self (Paperback)
In this gentle, insightful book, the author guides readers through a healing process of the spiritual and emotional wounds incurred through the stages of life. Chapters describes common events that can leave painful scars in each phase of a person's life. The author guides readers to Jesus in ways that bring health and healing. Short, practical spiritual exercises follow each chapter. I use this book in counseling women who have experienced various types of abuse, and they have found it extremely helpful.

Leaves you uncertain what it is you are supposed to heal.,
This review is from: Healing the Hidden Self (Paperback)
This book confused me. Though I agree with the fact that we indeed do have a hidden self, I was uncertain what Barara Shlemon was intending for us to heal. There are some good ideas here and a modicum of depth and intrigue for the human soul, but not enough to constitute a well researched book.
