Co-Dependency

Just as all the products featured on CHANGE IS A CHOICE deal with change and achieving balance in life so too do all our products deal with co-dependency in one way or another.

“Co-dependency” has come to be a catch all label meaning any life – or any part of life – that is controlled by an “old lie.” That is by any message a person learned early on that is less than human-friendly. Co-dependency always has the elements of bad boundaries, bad decisions and bad consequence. This is true whether the labels used are “dry drunk,” “Adult Child,” “Shame based,” or “Spiritually immature.” They all indicate the same process based on the learned “old lie” that always leads to difficulty, loss and sorrow.

Since there is always empowerment in understanding the more a person understands what they are dealing with the greater is the chance of making genuine change in their lives. In this case moving from co-dependency with all its labels and in all its forms to a life of increased serenity.

Topics covered in our various products on co-dependency:

• Understanding the anatomy of co-dependency
• Where co-dependency starts
• Coming to grips with our family of origin
• The effect of co-dependency on relationships
• Growing out of co-dependency
• How to work a program of change
