The Zoo of You: Learning to Walk Without Crutches, Transforming Defense Mechanisms into Life Skills (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798891121072)

Have you ever faced a major roadblock in your life? Have you questioned whether your "fight or flight" responses would get you through a crisis? This happened to the author, Brenda Abercrombie, when her counseling career ended, and retirement was looming. She felt as if she needed to learn to walk again. Her emotional crutches had served their purpose, but now, she had to learn to walk without crutches on a new path. With God as her divine counselor, she discovered the principles that would help her get past the roadblock.

The Zoo of You is a book about her journey and the strategy she developed to transform defense mechanisms into life skills. This book is packed with questionnaires and practical application exercises which will help you identify the skills you already possess and develop the ones you don't have yet. The Zoo of You provides you with a team of virtual animals to help you access these life skills. You won't have to face your next challenge alone.
