5.0 out of 5 stars A real gem to listen to, February 14, 2003

By	Namir C. Shammas (Richmond, VA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this tape because I have been attending CODA meetings and wanted to get a new perspective on codependence. Robert Burney more than delivers in this audio tape. He points out that AA and its spin-off twelve-step programs are really part of a spiritual awakening whose time has come. Burney uses the term "outer dependence" to point out that the root of codependence is relying on anything out there (jobs, education, friends, that special someone, money, power, and so on) to make us feel better. The author challenges us to look at things inside out and look inward for a sense of well being and true value. Burney talks about healing the inner child and how important that works for a truly healthy sense of well being. The author also challenges us to take a hard look at society and organized religion that programs us to BE CODEPENDENT.

Burney also shares his thought about the mystery called life. He presents many wonderful insights about living our lives and achieving balance or wholeness. His ideas agree with Carl Jung's notion that wholeness (and NOT perfectness) is what we humans need to be at inner peace.

I feel that this audio tape is a wonderful challenge for everyone who is asking questions and who is struggling to make sense of life. Burney has a lot to share. I have benefited from this tape greatly, as it gave me a valuable insight on codependence and how to seriously disempower it. I have decided not to attend the CODA meetings anymore as these 12-step programs themselves can and often do become a crutch and a new more subtle addiction. The audio tape became a strategic tool to empower me over my codependence.

This audio tape is a must for you if you are a seeker!

5.0 out of 5 stars truly an experience, February 25, 2006

By	Nicole M. Masika (Minneapolis, MN United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I find myself listening to these over and over. Seldom have I found anything or anyone that has helped me change my attitudes and behavior to a greater state of mental health as profoundly or quickly. Not that it's overnight,but over the past month since I got them I've made a lot of progress. I've seen therapists over the years for this and that, been to support groups, read other books. Some were decent but these tapes have been the most helpful in learning to love myself.

3.0 out of 5 stars Take Away Some Pieces, May 14, 2005

By	Mea Reader (East Coast, USA) - See all my reviews

There are some good insights on this tape, but I find that a lot of it is repeated, cliche and unnecessary information.
