Dirty Breath: Trapped by Rejection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780983579700)

Lana shares poignant stories about family, religious circles, and academia leaders that emotionally, verbally, and physically abused her. With each injurious action Lana's authentic self was pushed down into her soul creating wounds. And with each shove mask were added into her behavioral psyche posing as her original creation. At the end of each chapter are questions to answer as you ponder mindful thoughts of alternate perspectives. Believing and ingesting every word of those whom she thought loved her or those in authority mockingly said or yelled at her amassed weight on her small frame, a skin disorder, and dis-eases. This was written to expose and challenge how family, academic, and a spiritual community of 'Hurt' people can produce, emotional dishonesty in their prey. She always knew the person(s) she daily presented was not her authentic self. This is her warning, but mostly her rallying cry to parents, caretakers, and those in authority to pay attention to their children. Listen to their conversation; who they talk about in fearful tones, their dreams and visions, and most of all, if you are pregnant don't allow everyone to touch your stomach. If it were not for supernatural occurrences, her mother's secret, a pre-birth vision, and a desire to know her authentic self, emotionally, Lana might not have taken the journey back to who the Creator said she was long before she was manifested in the womb of her mother. Removing the beliefs, personality and behavior of hurt people from your soul will allow you to live the life you always knew you were to and pass on to your children. She leaves this burning question to humanity, "What emotional legacy do you want to leave your child or children? Mine was 'Rejection.' What's yours?"
