Emotional Freedom From COVID-19: How to Stop the Overwhelm . . . Build a New Life . . . And Beat the Odds! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781736388303)

It is my heart's desire that this book fulfills the void in our society of how to help individuals recover and be restored to a new, vibrant life--not just our economy.

This is a new era in our world where our emotional turmoil has deepened because of so many factors out of our control. Thousands of people worldwide have lost a loved one during this pandemic. Losing your loved one to death during this COVID-19 season presents more problems than if the person died prior to this period of chaos. Whether your family member or friend died from COVID-19 or other reasons, the grieving process entails more emotions than normal. Why?

During a time of isolation due to the pandemic, all our lives were disrupted. Having to stay home and lose interaction with others has led to anger, bitterness, pent-up emotions, and for many, a state of hopelessness and fear. Being unable to be with our loved one while he or she was sick and dying left us unable to be their advocate and also share our love with them. The power of touch was stripped away.

Grief is now intensified and fuels our daily living with additional unwanted feelings that we no longer know how to cope with. This pandemic is the first (and hopefully the only) one to happen during our lifetime. For the first time we are facing an unknown future, leaving us feeling like we have no control over our lives and our impact on helping others.

Is it possible to move on when our lives have been disrupted in so many areas? Yes. My hopes are to show you a roadmap to get you from where you are to a better and brighter future. While you may feel the odds are against you for getting through this successfully, the end results are within your power and it is possible to rise above the odds.

Besides grieving over the death of a loved one, many other losses may be playing havoc on our emotions. Things such as loss of financial income, loss of social interaction, loss of family gatherings, loss of a picture for a bright future, loss of control in many situations, loss of speed in forging ahead in our careers, and many other types of losses.

Below are the 7 C's to Transformation That Sticks. Each section will be discussed in-depth in this book. To obtain the transformation that you seek, the 7 C's should be followed in sequential order.

1) Choose My Destination

2) Change My Focus

You might wonder how some of the sections could help with the grieving process or stopping our emotional overwhelm. You will learn how our thoughts impact all areas of our lives, especially our emotions. Another proven fact is that a lot of our problems are resolved as a by-product of doing something else. This will become clear as you go through this process.
