Marvelous Messages from Your Childhood

Difficult childhood?

The unique and trying situations you experienced as a child,

at a time when you were the most impressionable,

programed your mind with survival tactics

that kept you going through whatever trials you faced.



Now, these same tactics can become the traits you need

to persevere through life's challenges and

succeed where others fail.



Found amidst many leaders, celebrities, sports stars,

musicians, artists, and other iconic luminaries

are thirteen traits often formed

during childhood's difficult, early years.



Ironically, those who may have been hit the hardest

are often the ones with the greatest tendency

to carry all thirteen.



Are you one of them?



Did you experience:



- Abuse? - Severe or life-threatening illness? - Death of a family member?

- Separation from a parent? - Trauma / fear / worry? - Extreme poverty?

- Transient lifestyle? - Unique lifestyles - Exposed to domestic violence?

- Subjected to the tragedies of war/terrorism/crime? - A life-altering moment?



Are you a person who is:



- Lucky to be alive?

- Not afraid to do things your way?

- Driven to keep busy?

- Always looking for ways to feel safe?

- Keeping your heart's desires at bay?



These are just a few of the traits that are examined. In addition, learn how Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) come into play with your adult-age health.



Jamie Saloff calls upon a well-known fairy tale to explain the thirteen traits and show how what once served as a defense against fear now becomes a means for success and fulfillment. Marvelous Messages from Your Childhood is part of the Heart Level in her Marvelous Messages series of books.
