About the Author
Dr. John K. Pollard, III is a lifelong student and educator whose professional life defines the term holistic healer. Throughout his career, he's helped a variety of complex individuals with diverse Body, Mind, and Relationship problems by means of the innovative system he originated, called Generic Human Studies. He is the creator of the psychological system called SELF-Parenting which became known in the psychology profession as "inner child work" during the late 80s. His book, SELF-Parenting was the original source showing both readers and the psychology profession how to recover from the negative aspects of "outer parenting" such as experienced by the Adult Children of Alcoholics. His book How Relationships Work (HRW) introduced a completely original, extremely simple, yet supremely accurate explanation of how each of the 12 generic human relationships function in the "real world." To enjoy better relationships, you need to know how they were designed to work. HRW teaches you how to recognize dysfunctional relationship patterns and gives you the guidelines, tools, and strength to resolve problematic relationships. As an expert in digestive problems Dr. Pollard shares the simple yet effective healing prescriptions in The Digestive Awareness Diet, which he used to heal a multitude of medical failures over a 30-year career. It educates the reader in a fun and easy way about each stage of digestive function. He also presents practical and common sense treatments for many classic digestive problems, such as heartburn, gallbladder problems, and constipation. For the benefit of future generations of healers, he codified his teachings in the concept known as Generic Human Studies. (see book.)
Reviews

Wow. This is another classic book (the yellow book) by John K. Pollard. (The blue book is also amazing). This yellow book is all about hearing and understanding the inner conversations (that everybody has) within our minds. This simple, yet amazing, book will help you resolve your inner conflicts...through the inner parent and inner child that resides in all of us. After reading it, you will EASILY learn how to love yourself. Oftentimes, we ask ourselves, do I really love myself. Then, we learn that we do not even know how to define what it is to love ourselves. Questions like: What is an example of how I can love myself After reading this book, you will finally know how to love yourself. AMAZING!!!!!!

If you really want to "change" yourself and your life, this is the best way that I have ever experienced! When you order "SELF-PARENTING: The Complete Guide To Your Inner Conversations" (ie yellow book) and "The Self-Parenting Program: Core Guidelines for the SELF-PARENTING Practitioner" (ie blue book), you don't only get these books but also a brand new and complete system called Self-Parenting Program. I feel Dr. Pollard's other book "How Relationships Work" would also complement this program to excellence.

I've been through many programs, that were all helpful in some way or another, however none of them can even accomplish what this little simple book teaches in a short 1.5 day read. Once you start the simple exercises, your inner life starts to unfold and you will start to realize how much your missed of what you really wanted in your life, but couldn't quite figure it out.

This book is simple, easy to understand and a complete, mind-blowing game-changer. I read it & did the exercises 10 years ago - the change it made in my life was immediate, profound and lasting. I frequently tell friends about the lessons in this book. In fact, I'm buying one right now for a friend. Don't think this book only applies to people who are struggling; it is good for all because it clearly identifies the inner child/inner parent roles (including tool kit & road map) by taking the concept to a very real next level.
