Summary

At the heart of a fragile self-worth, dissatisfaction with life, dysfunctional relationships, emotional suffering, and some physical illnesses is the inability to identify and effectively express feelings. This book helps the reader learn that expressing feelings has everything to do with finding healing from the past; finding peace of mind; and finding the inner happiness that you deserve and God wants you to have.
