The Healing Journey to Authenticity is a thought-provoking and inspirational collection of stories that highlight the reciprocal benefits of connection with others. In this second book of the Reciprocity series, ten remarkable women from a variety of professions share stories of personal awareness and growth discovered through their interactions with clients, family members, mentors, groups, and communities that have transformed their lives. These stories reveal that lessons of presence can be found in our experiences with nature, in our relationship with our surrounding ecology, in societal struggles with systemic trauma (both intergenerational and national), as well as within spiritual realms. The chapters contained in this book reflect on a variety of phases and experiences of life including healing from childhood trauma, the journey of parenthood, grief and heartbreak, exploring new purpose in retirement, reconnecting with the earth, and finding forgiveness through creative therapeutic processes. These personal stories impart strength, perseverance, and wisdom through a willingness to dive deep and come back to Self on the journey to authenticity.
