{"product_id":"9781544621241","title":"A Catholic Woman's Guide To Recovery From Codependence","description":"God gave women the ability to create and nurture life. During pregnancy, a woman makes room in her mind, body, and heart for another person-one who requires love and support to survive. While these are noble qualities, giving too much can have negative effects. In A Catholic Woman's Guide to Recovery from Codependence, Brenda Daly, PhD, LCSW, explores the dark side of a woman's natural tendency to nurture and support: a soul sickness known as codependence. In caring for an alcoholic partner, for example, a woman may shift imperceptibly from caregiver to enabler. Just as her partner comes to depend on alcohol, so can a woman depend on supporting her sick partner, forming a codependent relationship that benefits no one. Daly writes that codependence often arises from a woman's low self-esteem-an obsession with external forces and a diminishment of the self. In her book, Daly uses scripture and meditations to help women escape the spiritual prison of codependence and turn their great capacity for love toward God-for to love God is to love oneself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eDaly, PhD, LCSW, Brenda\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eCreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eMay 05, 2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e74 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1544621248\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781544621241\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49192532443441,"sku":"9781544621241","price":12.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9781544621241__51652_fb9fff39-a429-45e9-a3da-5161099d0a7f.jpg?v=1716793739","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9781544621241","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
