Story
Psychotherapist David Richo examines the science of triggers and our reactions of fear, anger, and sadness. He helps us understand why our bodies respond before our minds have a chance to make sense of a situation. By looking deeply at the roots of what provokes us - the words, actions, and even sensory elements like smell - we find opportunities to understand the origins of our triggers and train our bodies to remain calm in the face of painful memories.

Our "shadow" side comes to the surface in relationships more than anywhere else. The good news is that when we recognize and understand that we can work with our tendency to project our shadow onto those with whom we're in relationship, we can release ourselves from the habit to hurt or control one another, and we can tame our retaliatory impulses.

Have you ever wondered "Why did I do that?" or "Why can't I just control my behavior?" Others may judge our reactions and think, "What's wrong with that person?" When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question. Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”

Publisher's Summary
In this audiobook, psychotherapist David Richo explores how we replay the past in our present-day relationships - and how we can free ourselves from this destructive pattern. We all have a tendency to transfer potent feelings, needs, expectations, and beliefs from childhood or from former relationships onto the people in our daily lives, whether they are our intimate partners, friends, or acquaintances. When the Past Is Present helps us to become more aware of the ways we slip into the past so that we can identify our emotional baggage and take steps to unpack it and put it where it belongs. Drawing on decades of experience as a psychotherapist, Richo helps listeners to:
- Understand how the wounds of childhood become exposed in adult relationships - and why this is a gift
- Identify and heal the emotional wounds we carry over from the past so that they won't sabotage present-day relationships
- Recognize how strong attractions and aversions to people in the present can be signals of own own unfinished business
- Use mindfulness to stay in the present moment and cultivate authentic intimacy

For developing self-awareness..
This is a book about transference. If you haven't heard of that term before (I hadn't), it's like a lens we are seeing other people through - colored by our past unresolved experiences. Sort of like projection, but while projection is putting the unwanted aspects of ourselves onto the other person ("they must be jealous!" when we are actually the jealous one), transference is putting our past relationships onto the other person (seeing criticism when there is none, because our parent was critical of us). By becoming aware of when this is happening to us, we can enjoy the natural alchemical process of life without damaging our relationships . Consciousness of our transferences can allow us to have even more authentic interactions with those we love, seeing them for who they really are.
I especially love how he includes many religious references, quotes, etc. in his book, from a variety of faiths. This is beautiful.
Five stars for being both incredibly knowledgeable, and also well written.
(For those of you doing the audiobook version, I hate to report that the narrator is harsh to listen to...needs a pop filter badly!)

This one could have been 1/3 the length and more impactful. Explaining something 12 times in the exact same way. Entire chapters with only a paragraph's worth of real information. The only reason it got 2 stars instead of 1 is I think the concepts have a lot of merit.

Disappointed
I found this audible book to be a struggle. I do believe in transference and the role it plays in our lives, some more than others. However, the book jumps all over with a bunch of random Emily Dickinson quotes and out-of-place words and phrases thrown in. I also feel the connections of transference are greatly exaggerated and, in some cases, just plain weird. The narration felt like a pushed whisper the whole time and made the content worse. I do hope others enjoy the book and narration, and find it useful... but for me, I was quite disappointed.

Insightful
The author described in detail how our actions and thoughts are not haphazard but products of our upbringing and heritage. Parts of the book touched me deeply and I plan to read again and do the practice exercises. I did not like the spiritual part of the book. Too many things have happened in my life for me to be able to accept an all loving God and in my opinion all religions are lacking in what is preached- it’s a story fueled by money . Maybe when I re-read I will better understand that part of the book. One last comment- I liked the narrator.

Complicated language
This book is very informative I'm sure but I have a masters degree & it's soooooo hard to follow. I'm not an english or language scholar. It would have been nice if a more simplistic wording was used so that I don't have to focus so hard to understand. I'm not sure i can finish listening to this audio book. Probably will try to find something more easily understood.

Great content, narration leaves room for wanting
Perspectives provided in the book assuage those trying to make sense of their relationships’ past. Helps with understanding why their relationships are the way they are, and in being mindful of their mind processes to optimise toward results.
Although I feel the content were heavily anecdotal, and may not apply to everyone. Could have gotten a more energetic narrator to deliver such great content.

Spiritual and Scientific. Unexpectedly so.
While I often shy away from books that possess secular views if not solely providing scientific facts, this book points to the psychological necessity for the belief in a deity. As a Christian, I rely on my faith as a worldview to view the scope of my studies but also recognize the benefit of said belief to my mental well-being. Often those articles that recognize the benefit of belief in a higher power are written by religious individuals from one faith or another and support that view and as stated I endeavor often to find Christan-based studies and articles. This book time and again addresses the inherent connection between having a purpose-driven spiritual connection to root your worth in and to cast your hopes on to assuage the grief of trauma long past. It is noted in many studies as one of the most beneficial aspects of not grounding yourself in present circumstances and the troubles beset upon us in the world.
While I found much of it to be on point, I very greatly disagree with the Freudian model that brings every psychological reasoning for our actions to a foundation of sex and Mother or Father interactions. I cannot agree that every end goal of relationships is ultimately for the intent of procreation and I don't agree that every time we have sex, there are four people in the room including his mother and her father. While I indirectly see the correlation between our sexual preferences and interactions with an intimate partner reflected as that between us and our gender opposite parent, I don't necessarily agree with the idea that how we make love is dependent upon our relationship with them.
I found this book to excel in presenting the idea of transference and how our past so greatly and often unconsciously effects our perception of the world around us. it addressed the importance of recognizing when we are using the idea of transference to use clues to "assume" something must be true based on similar patterns and outcomes when we should be assessing every relationship with new eyes and with hope expecting, good from it.
I note that I gave it five stars, not necessarily because I agree with the views of all the material presented but because I believe what is presented is beneficial to anyone wishing to gain a greater understanding of the many things discussed. As open as the views presented were, they were unbiased and the material, while inclusive of any religion with which to take up and cast one's hopes upon is from a psychological perspective beneficial no matter who or what one believes in.

Arguably one of the most important books you will ever read especially if you are not familiar with the notion of transference. You might need a second reading of the first chapters though.

Whilst the message of this book is of value and I understand the thoughts behind the process, I found this a laborious listen. I have persevered about three quarters of the way through and now frankly given up as I would prefer to spend my time listening to or reading material that spurs me on. I found it convoluted and repetitive, notwithstanding the importance of the message it was trying to convey.

I couldn't finish this book. There was just so much rambly nonsense that dragged on and on. Some conciseness in the writing wouldn't go amiss. The narrator's voice was soothing, but there seemed little direction in what he was reading, and a lot of repetition.
