The trauma of your past can’t be undone, but you
can
take charge of how it affects you. This compassionate journal offers a safe space to help you process, heal, and reclaim your power.
Trauma and its effects can feel like a never-ending storm, and there’s no safe harbor in sight from the thoughts and emotions that toss and turn so violently and unpredictably in your head. But healing
is
possible. Your brain
actually re-wire these thoughts and emotions. And
you
can direct that powerful healing process through journaling. By putting your thoughts to paper, you can identify, choose, and permanently adopt new ways of responding to stress. You can create a
new
narrative of your life—one that breaks you out of your most deeply ingrained and self-destructive thoughts and behaviors.
In this powerful guided journal, internationally acclaimed neuroscience journalist and author Donna Jackson Nakazawa outlines her inspiring, innovative, trauma-informed, and mindful Neural Re-Narrating™ program to help you:
Acknowledge your past while engaging in the present moment
Create a
and empowering written narrative you can revisit again and again
Release worry and trauma from your body by putting it onto the page
Reduce your anxiety and alleviate symptoms of depression
Access inner calm—even in stressful situations
The act of unburdening oneself is essential when working through troubling or traumatic experiences. Through thoughtful, guided writing experiences, you’ll find the strength to live authentically—with hope and optimism for the future.
