The groundbreaking guide to self-healing and getting the love you missed. Was your mother preoccupied, distant, or even demeaning? Have you struggled with relationships—or with your own self-worth? Often, the grown children of emotionally absent mothers can’t quite put a finger on what’s missing from their lives. The children of abusive mothers, by contrast, may recognize the abuse—but overlook its lasting, harmful effects. Psychotherapist Jasmin Lee Cori has helped thousands of men and women heal the hidden wounds left by every kind of undermothering. In this second edition of her pioneering book, with compassion for mother and child alike, she explains:<ul>
<li>Possible reasons your mother was distracted or hurtful—and what she was unable to give</li>
<li>The lasting impact of childhood emotional neglect and abuse</li>
<li>How to find the child inside you and fill the “mother gap” through reflections and exercises</li>
<li>How to secure a happier future for yourself (and perhaps for your children)</li>
</ul>

Healing from an Emotionally Absent Mother: Learn to Build Trust, Take In Nourishment, and Move Past the Wounds Left by Neglect―A Workbook

Muchas personas sienten que les faltó algo en su infancia y se preguntan por qué su madre no parecía estar ahí para ellas. A pesar de que la madre pudo haber prestado cuidados de tipo físico, tienen la sensación de haber sido, de algún modo, «huérfanas de madre». En estas circunstancias, es difícil mantener una relación con la figura materna en la edad adulta. 
La madre emocionalmente ausente te ayudará a comprender por qué tu madre fue incapaz de proporcionarte lo que muchas madres sí pueden dar. También te guiará en un trabajo a varios niveles: 
• Identificar los impactos de la negligencia emocional y el abuso emocional. 
• Evaluar opciones en cuanto a la relación con tu madre ahora que eres una persona adulta. 
• Encontrar al niño/a que llevas dentro y aprender a ser una madre para ese niño. 
• Hacerte cargo de tu sanación y aprender a compensar lo que no tuviste. 
A través de reflexiones, ejercicios y explicaciones claras, la psicoterapeuta Jasmin Lee Cori ayuda a hijos e hijas adultos a sanar las heridas que les dejó una madre que no les proporcionó los elementos esenciales que todo niño necesita. Te darás cuenta de que lo que pensabas que eran defectos propios fueron, en realidad, déficits de la maternidad, lo cual te permitirá desprenderte de culpas. 
También aprenderás a criar a tu niño interior para que obtenga lo que no recibió en su momento. El conjunto del trabajo te conducirá a un futuro más feliz, tanto para ti como para tus hijos.
