About this listen

Do you have a family that is always there for you?

Do you understand that blood is always thicker than water?

Are you prepared to do whatever it takes for your family?

Family is the one thing you can rely on when the chips are down and you need help. When so-called friends and colleagues desert you in your hour of need, it is family that will likely be there to help you put the pieces back together again. Maintaining a close and loving relationship with your family members is crucial for so many reasons, so it’s vitally important that you work on it as hard as possible.

This book, The Eternal Pain, gives a deep insight into why our families are so important to us and how we can work to keep those strong bonds and make them even stronger, with chapters devoted to:

  • Nurturing your family bond to ensure enduring strength
  • Supporting your family through thick and thin
  • Offering sympathy and help during times of grief
  • How adversity can affect a family
  • The uniqueness of sibling bonds
  • Relationships between partners
  • The pain experienced by loss of a loved one
  • And much more…

Our families contain some of the most important people in our lives, and we generally do all we can to make sure they are safe and happy as much as possible.

Interlaced with short stories that accompany each chapter, The Eternal Pain is a book that examines the different relationships within families and how we interact with one another at times of great stress and difficulty.

It is the perfect book for anyone who loves their family and would make a fabulous gift for a relative or loved one!

This book had a significant impact on my life. For the most of my adult life, I've battled depression and codependency. I haven't been sad or struggled with codependent "desperation" in the three days since I started the code. I'm still on the fence about whether it's too good to be true. It's been six weeks, and I've had my melancholy ups and downs, but they've been situational rather than the gloomy cloud that had loomed over me for years. My relationship was saved by resolving my codependency, and my life has drastically changed for the better. Because it's difficult to describe the notion to others, I've been giving the book to friends and family. That's how fantastic it is!

I really like this book, although I'm not sure why it captivated and enthralled me so much, given that it is the narrative of one man's youth and ultimately his family's death. It's the unique way of expressing and describing the most fundamental of operations.

This is a book that will change your life! This is the only item that has given me predictable and consistent benefits after a lifetime of depression and a variety of other difficulties. The only thing I didn't like about it was that it has to be done three times a day, every day, for it to operate properly. But, after a year or two away, I'm back on track and liking the results!

The only thing I didn't like was the fact that it

An exceptionally candid and honest description of the author's father's death, as well as the thoughts, feelings, and memories that it prompted. The scene was filmed against a backdrop of Norwegian countryside and a tiny village. It provoked tremendous emotions in me as the author recounted and dealt with his own personal struggles and familial issues. This was life and death in slow motion in many respects, but it left a dramatic, memorable path.

A moving, very personal and open account of the d

Before getting to the code, the author beats the points to death, but otherwise it's an excellent read with useful information. If the "code" works as stated, it will change everyone's life. I'm now utilising it, and I'm seeing instant effects.
