[Following is a volunteer review of "Seeking... Finding... Healing..." by Becky Lu Jackson.]
Healing doesn’t mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls our lives. – Akshay Dubey
Seeking…Finding…Healing… by Becky Lu Jackson begins with a brief rundown of what its readers should expect if they decide to embark on the path of inner family healing. It describes inner family healing as healing your past and younger selves while establishing a trusting relationship with the universe and a God of your understanding. According to the author, your younger selves refer to yourself at any age below your current age. The book has four parts, each taking its reader on a guided path to healing. Parts one and two provide a foundation for the process of inner family healing. It refers to this as foundation work. The author explains how she began this journey and her personal experience with it. She also encourages the reader with stories of several individuals who have had successful results with this process. The benefits of this healing technique are introduced, as well as thorough exercises, firm affirmations, and the God concept. Part three carries the reader through the actual meditations in inner family healing. Detailed practices such as spiritual team bonding are introduced with outlined meditations to guide the reader through the process. Finally, the book rounds up with part four, where tools to aid the reader in this journey are established and explained.
When I started reading Seeking…Finding…Healing…, I found it hard to imagine how possible it was to heal from your past by addressing your younger selves as separate entities and parenting them. However, I was intrigued by how much confidence the author had in the power of inner family work. She acknowledged that the process she was introducing would probably sound strange to most people but encouraged her readers to have an open mind. The author delved into several issues, such as the implications of negative emotions on our physical wellbeing. The exercises introduced by Becky Lu Jackson in the book were easy to follow and very engaging.
What I loved the most about this book was that the author provided detailed techniques and various approaches to try based on not just her own experiences but also the experiences of others who have embarked on this journey. Considering there is a spiritual aspect to the inner family healing, it was refreshing to see that the author gave room for various beliefs and religions by emphasizing that each reader should trust in a God of their understanding.
Seeking…Finding…Healing… was an intriguing book that I will be reading again. I honestly dislike nothing about this book, and I am rating it a 4 out of 4 stars.
Readers looking for healing from their past or a way to cope with current difficulties will benefit from this book. It will also be an engaging read for readers with a creative mind who want to explore the possibilities of having an inner family or a spiritual team. I do not recommend this book to cynics because it requires having an open mind.
