Writing this book has been one of the hardest things I've had to do this year Elizabeth Ann
"Having to re-read, re-live and reflect on all that my beautiful daughter (and even myself) has been through has broken my heart over and over again. I have spent many nights in tears on the couch after writing a particular chapter, I have endured many panic attacks over the memory of the struggles we have been through and I have even been unable to sleep due to the anxiety this book has triggered within me.
The deep deep heartbreak a Mother feels when her child has been abused is overwhelming in the most awful of ways.
My soul was torn deeply the day I found out my daughter was abused. Her innocence taken away from her in an instant."
This topic is Raw, Deeply Triggering, yet Incredibly Important to discuss.
Sexual abuse is all too common amongst families (more than 90% of abuse happens with a fami-ly member) and the destructive cycle will only stop when you say it does.
Elizabeth Ann, a living testimony, has been able to find joy and peace during many life moments, whilst in the midst of being abused by her ex-husband and even when being forced to celebrate Christmas across the table from her own sexual predator.
She relays her own and her daughter's ugly raw encounters of abuse and then goes through the healing modalities she has used for herself and her child stopping at nothing, to encourage com-plete and thorough healing for victims of abuse. Workshops and meditations to assist yours and your child's healing journey, this book is so important for victims of abuse.
Stand up and speak up, whether for your child or yourself, it's time for the Rise of the Child: Mind, Body and Strength.
