My Eyes Were Old When I was Young: Growing Up With Childhood Memories of Trauma and Fixing Them!

Childhood Trauma - My Eyes Were Old When I was Young describes childhood trauma, childhood trauma and its links to borderline personality disorders, childhood trauma PTSD, adolescent psychology, child psychology, and neuroscience behind all childhood trauma. Written by ones of the nation's leading behavioral scientists, Dr. Treat Preston not only describes the various childhood traumas but also teaches the proper protocols to identify them and treat them. In science I am quite certain you have heard the expression, "You are what you eat " And in nutritional science this is quite true as it pertains to the physiology of the body. But in the mental sciences it is quite different. The way we think is the same way we believe. We are physically what we eat but we are mentally what we believe. In physiology - the study of the physical human body - food that is ingested is changed into nutrients that are bioavailable to the body namely carbs, protein and fat. In essence, whatever you consume is changed into YOU So, you are what you eat physically...Mental food does the exact opposite. Whatever your mind consumes will not be changed into YOU, like the food your body eats, but you will be changed into IT You may be what you eat PHYSICALLY; but you are what you BELIEVE MENTALLY And this is one of the underlying causes of mental maladies of all types including childhood trauma. But not all mental maladies can trace their root causes back to childhood trauma and this is something to understand. But one thing is certain, we are what we believe mentally and it all begins with pour belief systems. This is an amazing and compelling book written in layman's terms so that anyone can benefit from, its teachings. Darlene W of Calabasas, CA says, "If only I had this book 25-years ago, I could have saved myself a life of pain and hurt brought forward from my childhood. I was severely verbally and physically abused by my stepfather and carried all of this junk over into my adult life. Everyone on the planet needs to read this book. It literally saved my life."
