This is an audio rip of an old VHS set on the work of Dr Henry Cloud and Dr John Townsend on boundaries. I used to own this set but it went the way of old VHS tapes and became unplayable. I bought the book of the same name after that and wasn't as impressed by the book as I was by the work in this video set.
While the material has a heavy biblical tone, this audio challenges some of the more mainstream interpretations of the bible and does it more definitively than the book does. That said by someone has read the bible, but not studied it apart from the topics discussed on the forum and through Laura's writings. Despite that there is still some mainstream religious programming that this series of talks can highlight. One thing that I'd forgotten was the level of humour used in this set.
Suggested by a counsellor I was seeing years ago, what was most helpful was the clear definitions of what a boundary is and what a life without boundaries looks and feels like and the exploration of the flow on effects of both good boundaries and no boundaries. It's difficult to work with something where there is little experience and no clear guidelines for a way out. That doesn't mean that armed with those things, that it's an easy issue to resolve. There are still challenges along the way.
While some of the material drifts into the black and white somewhat, I think that's OK as a foundation and a base to start learning and growing from.
