The Midwest Book Review has this to say about “Going Home”:
“Mental health professionals Gregory Boothroyd and Lori Boothroyd combine their experience in Going Home: A Positive Emotional Guide for Promoting Life-Generating Behaviors, a consumable self-help book written especially for those who struggle with themselves in the search for happiness in their life and relationships. Chapters discuss how self-sabotaging behaviors are learned, maintained, and implemented, how to identify harmful behaviors and replace negative thought patterns with positive focus. Applications for these helpful psychological techniques range from learning to disassociate from substance abuse behavior patterns to improving communication in family or intimate relationships.”

A reader shares the following:
“While reading this book it was clear that the authors are not only experts in their field, but they are passionate about their work. Their individual expertise combines to form a wonderfully warm and thoughtful book. Unlike so many books in the health and mental health genres, this book is easy to understand and the exercises can be used by anyone looking to fulfill their potential by eliminating self-defeating behaviors. How refreshing to try new and creative activities to improve our overall wellness.”-
