Break the Cycle of Codependency, Stop Trying to Control Others, and Start Caring for Yourself with Melody Beattie • 274

We will learn: The psychological reasons why we try to control. Why detachment is necessary for a healthy life and how to practice it. How to break free from the cycle of codependency so you can start caring for yourself. Do you feel like you’re always the one giving and never receiving? Or maybe you feel like you’re always the one doing and never being. So how do we break the cycle of codependency? How do we stop trying too hard to control others so we can finally take care of ourselves? That’s what we’re talking about today, and I’m really excited about our guest because she wrote the book that helped me get my life back over 15 years ago. Her name is Melanie Beattie, and she’s the author of “Codependent No More,” as well as “The Language of Letting Go,” “The Grief Club,” and “Beyond Codependency.” Links from the episode: Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/274 Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes from your highest self.  Get Mind Love Premium for exclusive ad-free episodes and monthly meditations.  Support Mind Love Sponsors Learn more about your ad choices.
