About Robert Burney
Robert Burney M.A. is an author, counselor, and a pioneer in the field of inner child healing / codependency recovery. His book Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls has been called "one of the truly transformational works of our time" - and he has been referred to as "a metaphysical Stephen Hawking." A therapist and Spiritual Teacher whose work has been compared to John Bradshaw's "except much more spiritual" and described as "taking inner child healing to a new level," Robert has developed a holistic strategy for emotional healing that is the next level of recovery / healing / consciousness raising / enlightenment that so many people have been seeking. He has pioneered an inner child healing paradigm that offers a powerful, life changing formula for integrating Love, Spiritual Truth, and intellectual knowledge of healthy behavior into one's emotional experience of life - a blueprint for individuals to transform their core relationship with self and life.
Robert, whose work is firmly grounded on twelve step spiritual principles and emotional energy release / grief process therapy, learned in his own personal recovery that developing internal boundaries was the key to empowerment and freedom from the past. His unique approach and application of the concept of internal boundaries, coupled with a Loving spiritual belief system, make the work innovative and powerfully life changing. It does not matter how much Spiritual Truth, how many mystical experiences of oneness, how in tune with Love, you can feel in certain moments - if you cannot integrate it into your life in a way which changes your emotional experience of life on a moment to moment, day to day basis. You can go to therapy - or be in recovery - for many years, read all the Spiritual and self help books, go to workshops and seminars and lectures - compile encyclopedic intellectual knowledge of what healthy behavior is - and still be reacting to old wounds in the relationships that mean the most to you. In order to start to Truly be more Loving to self, and more open to giving and receiving love from others, it is necessary to change how you relate to your own internal process. If you want to learn how to relax and enjoy life in the moment, while you are healing and learning to Love your self, you want to read his book.
Robert Burney formed Joy to You & Me Enterprises in order to facilitate the dissemination of what he believes is a vitally important and very Joyous message. Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls was the first project for this company. As of October 2010 the financing has not been available to publish any additional books. Robert has however, published a wealth of information on recovery, healing, and spiritual topics on the internet. On his publicly available web site, Joy2MeU.com, he shares several million words in articles, newsletters, and online books in which he discusses all facets of both the wounding and recovery process. In addition, he has a 2 password protected web sites - the Joy2MeU Journal & Dancing in Light - in which he is publishing drafts of several future books and autobiographical information about the history of his recovery, emotional healing, and Spiritual growth process, as well as a personal journal about his recovery process in recent years. Since April 2006 he has been offering periodic day long Intensive Training workshops in San Diego to train people in the Formula for inner healing and Spiritual Integration that he discovered and developed. He also offers telephone counseling which has proven to be very effective in helping people apply his inner child healing approach in their lives. Robert presently lives in the community of Encinitas in Northern San Diego County California.
Thanks to Amazon's CreateSpace print on demand service he was able to publish his second book Codependency Recovery: Wounded Souls Dancing in The Light - Empowerment, Freedom, and Inner Peace through Inner Child Healing in the summer of 2011. His third book Romantic Relationships ~ The Greatest Arena for Spiritual & Emotional Growth - Codependent Dysfunctional Relationship Dynamics & Healthy Relationship Behavior was published in September 2012.

Blog post““In order to become aligned with Truth so that we can stop the war within and change life into an easier, more enjoyable experience, it is vitally important to become clear in our emotional process and to change the reversed attitudes that we had to adopt to survive. Those reversed attitudes are what cause our dysfunctional perspectives – which in turn, have caused us to have a lousy relationship with life.

Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls has been called "one of the truly transformational works of our time" - and it's author Robert Burney referred to as "a metaphysical Stephen Hawking." This joyously inspirational Spiritual book presents a set of beliefs about the meaning and purpose of life from a Cosmic Perspective that combines Twelve Step Recovery Principles, Native American Spirituality, and Ancient Metaphysical Truths. It explains why a New Age has dawned in human consciousness on planet Earth and explores the interrelationship between subjects that range from the Bible, Buddha, and Jesus to quantum physics, molecular biology, and AIDS. The belief system the book is based upon is exemplified by this quote from The Dance of Wounded Souls: "We are not sinful, shameful human creatures who have to somehow earn Spirituality. We are Spiritual Beings having a human experience. We are here to experience and learn, to Touch and to feel."
A counselor/coach and Spiritual Teacher whose work has been compared to John Bradshaw's "except much more spiritual" and described as "taking inner child healing to a new level" - Robert has developed a unique approach to emotional healing that is the next level of recovery from codependency so many people on a healing / spiritual path have been seeking. He has pioneered an inner child healing paradigm that offers a powerful, life changing formula for integrating Love, Spiritual Truth, and intellectual knowledge of healthy behavior into one's emotional experience of life - a blueprint for individuals to transform their core relationship with self and life.
Robert, whose work is firmly grounded on twelve step recovery principles and emotional energy release / grief process therapy, specializes in teaching individuals how to become empowered to have internal boundaries so they can learn to relax and enjoy life in the moment while healing. It is the unique approach and application of the concept of internal boundaries, coupled with a Loving Spiritual belief system, that make the work so innovative and effective. This is a life-changing, life-affirming book.
"I have been one of the lucky people to read your sensational book! . . . This book is truly a masterpiece. . . Wouldn't it be great if every living being on the planet read this book? Global transformation!"
"There is much joy expressed in this book. We are given an opportunity to change the dance from one of suffering and endurance to one of celebration and appreciation. Robert's words will move and inspire you"
"I am a 52 year old psychotherapist and have struggled with codependency all my life. Up until tonight I have been disappointed in the literature and treatment of codependency. Your work is brilliant! I can't find words to express my appreciation with the depth I am feeling."
"Your writing is more insightful and instructive for change than Bradshaw and Melody Beattie of codependence no more. Pia Melody's pretty good but you're more broad thinking in concepts and more compassionate too.”
"When I found your book, I found myself."
“ . . . your perspective on philosophy, spirituality and psychology is really unique. I've read and listened to many spiritual people, but I've never found someone who combines love, acceptance and humor in such a profound manner."
"I find it very exciting that you have brought the whole definition of codependence to this spiritual level, where I can much more relate to it's truth.

The title of this book: Romantic Relationships ~ The Greatest Arena for Spiritual & Emotional Growth - is a Truth that it is vital to recognize if you ever want to have a functional romantic relationship. We were set up to fail in romantic relationships by the dysfunctional perspectives and expectations of love and romance we learned growing up, according to the author. Robert Burney is a Spiritual Teacher and pioneer in the area of codependency recovery / inner child healing whose first book Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls has been called "one of the truly transformational works of our time." His second book Codependency Recovery: Wounded Souls Dancing in The Light - Empowerment, Freedom, and Inner Peace through Inner Child Healing was published in the summer of 2011. Here is what he has to say about this e-book which will be part of his third book that is being published in the summer of 2012.
We were set up to feel like failures in romantic relationships by the dysfunctional perspectives and expectations of love and romance we learned growing up. There is no happily-ever-after that we can reach when we find our prince or princess. As an adult you obviously know that intellectually - but emotionally you are still looking for it because it is what we were taught as children, it is part of the foundation programming that determines how we relate to life. On some level you are probably judging your self because you haven't reached happily-ever-after.
As I state on my website in the section on Romantic Relationships, "The thing that is so important about the issue of Romantic Relationships is to realize how we were set up to "fail" in romance - to really get it on a gut level, so that we can forgive ourselves." It is very important to start realizing how we were set up, so that we can change our attitudes, definitions, and expectations of romantic relationships into ones that are more functional - into ones that can help us start to learning how to approach love and romance in healthier ways.
Once we start letting go of feeling responsible for something we were powerless over, letting go of the false guilt and toxic shame about our "mistakes" and "failures" in romance - then we can start to learn how to take healthy risks and make better choices. It is better to love and lose then never love - but we need to change what we are expecting from love and romance in order to even have a chance of being able to start learning how to have an interdependent relationship that can work for us.
When I am speaking I sometimes say, "There are things that I have written in ways that I like so much that I quote myself." One of the main sayings of mine that I quote - and have used in my writing for years - is, "Romantic relationships are the greatest arena for Spiritual and emotional growth available to us." So, it was pretty easy when I started putting this book together to pick a title. Romantic Relationships ~ The Greatest Arena for Spiritual & Emotional Growth was a natural. The subtitle - Codependent Dysfunctional Relationship Dynamics & Healthy Relationship Behavior - speaks to some areas it is important to focus upon. First it is important to realize that our patterns in relationship, especially romantic relationships - although normal in a dysfunctional society - are not normal, natural interaction patterns, they are dsyfunctional inter-reaction patterns caused by codependency, by our childhood emotional wounding and intellectual programming. Secondly it is vital to start learning how to behave in a healthy loving way in relationships so that we can give our self the gift of being available for a romantic relationship that can be a great adventure with someone else who is working on learning how to be healthy in their relationship with self and others.

This ebook The Metaphysics of Emotions - emotional energy is real is a follow up to the ebook The Law of Attraction - Misunderstood & Misinterpreted A Larger Spiritual Paradigm. The author’s reasons for publishing these ebooks are summed up in the following paragraph from his ebook The Law of Attraction - Misunderstood & Misinterpreted.
"I am publishing this book because I believe that the way the Law of Attraction is being taught by most people who are teaching it today is not ultimately Loving. I believe it is being taught in a way that makes many of the people hearing it feel ashamed; in a way that causes people to focus on reaching a destination at the expense of being present in the now; in a way that reinforces the delusion that there is something inherently wrong with being human, with human beings. It is also being taught by most spiritual teachers in a way that discounts and devalues emotions and emotional healing."
This ebook addresses the emotionally dysfunctional, emotionally dishonest nature of civilization as it has evolved on Planet Earth - and addresses how vital it is to learn to have a better relationship with one’s own emotions.
Robert Burney is an author, counselor, and Spiritual Teacher who has been referred to as "a metaphysical Stephen Hawking." His first book Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls has been called "one of the truly transformational works of our time." In it he states:
“Our mental health system not only does not promote healing - it actually blocks the process. The mental health system in this country is designed to get your behavior and emotions under control so that you can fit back into the dysfunctional system.” - Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls by Robert Burney
In a quote from his writing that he includes in this ebook, he states that emotions are a vital part of our being for several reasons.
“1. Because it is energy and energy cannot just disappear. The emotional energy generated by the circumstances of our childhood and early life does not go away just because we were forced to deny it. . . . .
2. As long as we have pockets of pressurized emotional energy that we have to avoid dealing with - those emotional wounds will run our lives. We use food, cigarettes, alcohol and drugs, work, religion, exercise, meditation, television, etc., to help us keep suppressing that energy. . . .
3. Our emotions tell us who we are - our Soul communicates with us through emotional energy vibrations. Truth is an emotional energy vibrational communication from our Soul on the Spiritual Plane to our being/spirit/soul on this physical plane - it is something that we feel in our heart/our gut, something that resonates within us.
Our problem has been that because of our unhealed childhood wounds it has been very difficult to tell the difference between an intuitive emotional Truth and the emotional truth that comes from our childhood wounds. . . .
4. We are attracted to people that feel familiar on an energetic level - which means (until we start clearing our emotional process) people that emotionally / vibrationally feel like our parents did when we were very little kids. . . . ”
In order to get in touch with who we Truly are - with our own heart and soul - it is vital to heal our emotional wounds and to change how we relate to our own emotions.
This ebook The Metaphysics of Emotions will be part two of the hard copy book that will be titled: The Law of Attraction - Misunderstood & Misinterpreted A Larger Spiritual Paradigm - including The Metaphysics of Emotions.
"I am publishing this book because I believe that the way the Law of Attraction is being taught by most people who are teaching it today is not ultimately Loving. I believe it is being taught in a way that makes many of the people hearing it feel ashamed; in a way that causes people to focus on reaching a destination at the expense of being present in the now; in a way that reinforces the delusion that there is something inherently wrong with being human, with human beings. It is also being taught by most spiritual teachers in a way that discounts and devalues emotions and emotional healing."
This ebook addresses the emotionally dysfunctional, emotionally dishonest nature of civilization as it has evolved on Planet Earth - and addresses how vital it is to learn to have a better relationship with one’s own emotions.
Robert Burney is an author, counselor, and Spiritual Teacher who has been referred to as "a metaphysical Stephen Hawking." His first book Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls has been called "one of the truly transformational works of our time." In it he states:
“Our mental health system not only does not promote healing - it actually blocks the process. The mental health system in this country is designed to get your behavior and emotions under control so that you can fit back into the dysfunctional system.” - Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls by Robert Burney
In a quote from his writing that he includes in this ebook, he states that emotions are a vital part of our being for several reasons.
“1. Because it is energy and energy cannot just disappear. The emotional energy generated by the circumstances of our childhood and early life does not go away just because we were forced to deny it. . . . .
2. As long as we have pockets of pressurized emotional energy that we have to avoid dealing with - those emotional wounds will run our lives. We use food, cigarettes, alcohol and drugs, work, religion, exercise, meditation, television, etc., to help us keep suppressing that energy. . . .

Robert Burney is an author, counselor, and Spiritual Teacher who has been referred to as "a metaphysical Stephen Hawking." His first book Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls has been called "one of the truly transformational works of our time." In this book about the Law of Attraction he shares his opinion that spiritual teachers, new age gurus, and New Thought churches are teaching the Law of Attraction in ways that do a disservice to - and can actually hurt - the people they are teaching.
As he states in this book: "I am publishing this book because I believe that the way the Law of Attraction is being taught by most people who are teaching it today is not ultimately Loving. I believe it is being taught in a way that makes many of the people hearing it feel ashamed; in a way that causes people to focus on reaching a destination at the expense of being present in the now; in a way that reinforces the delusion that there is something inherently wrong with being human, with human beings. It is also being taught by most spiritual teachers in a way that discounts and devalues emotions and emotional healing."
He also states, “I believe that Spirituality is all about relationships. One's relationship to self, to others, to the environment, to life in general. A Spiritual belief system is simply a container for holding all our other relationships. I believe that a lot of these New Age Spiritual Teachers do not have a large enough Spiritual container / paradigm - and as a result are teaching the Law of Attraction in ways that are not Loving.”
