reveal the pure nature of the relationship at its core.’

continued and deeper understanding of the human psyche and to
looking beyond the presentational self to what is really motivating
us. It is applicable to all of our interpersonal relationships, but
most especially to our most treasured one: the one with our
children.’

Hartzell has helped me immeasurably in my quest to be the best
possible parent I can be. ’

‘This is an excellent book, with a positive, humane, and
compassionate message. I applaud the emphasis on emotional
connection and communication between parent and child and the
thesis that as you understand and connect with yourself, you can
better connect with your child. This book will be deeply
interesting to parents as well as useful for them.’

Brain*
‘This book is beautifully written, filled with well-wrought
science, but also with a deep and pervasive warmth. The subject is
nothing less than human nature. What could be more important to all
of us to understand who we are as we carry on the activity of
loving our children. Anyone who reads this book will experience
attachment, parenting, and human love differently from how they
have before.’
*Michael Gurian, author of The Wonder of Boys and The Soul of
the Child*
‘By combining the latest research on parent-child relationships
with new discoveries in brain science, Parenting from the Inside
Out shows parents how to understand and integrate the experiences
from their own childhood into a nurturing style of parenting that
promotes healthy communication, meaningful attachment, and
trust.’
*Sal Severe, PhD, author of How to Behave So Your Children Will
Too!*
‘Daniel Siegel and Mary Hartzell's illuminating and inspiring book
presents a practical model of parenting that nurtures an emphatic
dialogue within oneself and with one's children. Consequently,
parenting becomes not just something that we do, but something that
is very much a part of who we are. As a parent of seven children,
this book has a permanent spot on my night table.’
*Kate Capshaw Spielberg*
