Product Description
Shame is an emotion that many of us don't recognize easily, and yet it's usually the basis of addiction, violence, overwork, emotional shutdown, and adopting a 'false self.' The good news is that once we recognize it for what it is, shame loses much of its toxicity. Breaking the Shackles is a revised edition of our 1995 book, Men Healing Shame, in which several dozen men write of their experience healing the effects of toxic shame. Among our chapter authors are Robert Bly and Gershen Kaufman. It's a book written by and for men--using our natural way of saying things, and yet a number of women have found it helpful. A very practical book, with occasional theoretical underpinning.

Shame is a hidden problem, lurking right under our noses. Women use shame constantly to control men (as do parents with children) and this topic is covered in this book, one of the first times it has been brought into the light.
This book is easy to read, except of course when you find yourself lost in thought, remembering when you were shamed.... Highly recommended.
