A New Star (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781492767558)

"Words on a page are powerful. They can cause the downfall of an empire or the restoration of magical kingdoms. They represent life at its best and death's deepest mysteries. For me, words on a page became a lifeline: a safety net for uncontrollable fears, a loyal companion for those undefinable shadows, a release from tumultuous emotional rides. Words like "traumatic brain injury," "post-traumatic syndrome disorder," and "near-death experience" found life on the page when the mere mention of these ideas unraveled my world." The author's healing journey blends her expansion of spiritual beliefs with metaphysical techniques, Celtic folklore elements, and psychological therapies. Many of the healing sessions lent themselves to written expression through poetry, short fiction, inner council dialogues, and journal writing, thereby exemplifying the accessibility of words as an important avenue in the healing process. The story concludes with manageable goals, positive affirmations, and new personal visions along with a "Writing Companion" chapter outlining specific writing tips on healing/release per style. This book lends itself as the core for workshops on writing (poetry, fiction, journals), spirituality, the mind/body/spirit healing arts, and folk/ fairy tales.
