Making Peace With Your Past by Bloomfield

Very readable and user-friendly. All the information is well founded and I highly recommend it.

Feel The Transformation

What an awesome book! I have read all of Dr. Bloomfield's books, however, I felt change taking place deep within 'as I read' this one. The third chapter on 'Breaking the Shackles of Shame' is worth buying and reading the whole book. It gave me a direct plan to dealing with the deep seated issues of shame in my psyche. It also uncovered things in me that I have repressed for many years. It taught me the language of knowing what was really going on inside of me. Helped me to specifically identify hurts and obstacles that were holding me back from living the quintessential life. Read this book if you want to experience healing for your past. Dr. Bloomfield not only identifies your past issues, he gives you remedies for dealing with them successfully. Michael Murphy Powerful Attitudes

Best Ever-Incredibly Helpful

This book was extremely vital in my process of healing some wounds from a breakup of a marriage. I used all the exersices and I find myself picking it up just to review some of the material. I felt soothed and released by the message. Thanks thanks thanks so much, Marissa Walters.

Bloomfield helped me

Having resented my parents all my life, after reading this book I now understand why they treated me the way they did and why they reacted with such anger. Now that my father is deceased I can no longer tell him I love him and forgive him for what he did. This book helped me make peace with myself and my past. Dr. Bloomfield is a master at healing people and having them achieve peace within themselves.
