From Trauma

to Triumph

How Alternate Therapies Saved My Life and How They Can Save You

ABOUT THE BOOK

Willpower is what Rachie had learnt to befriend having experienced more than her fair share of despair. One year after leaving an abusive relationship whilst suffering from PTSD, she was the passenger in a car accident that left her having to learn how to walk again. She was left to battle chronic pain and poor mental health.

She found herself lost, stuck and spiralling. It appeared her life was made up of a series of “one tragedy” after the next moments. Willpower alone was no longer enough. Rach found herself suicidal and bitter whilst asking, “When can I catch a break?” and, “Why is life incredibly painful?”

Rachie was 24 and sick of her life’s bullshit. She desperately travelled through her trauma, hoping to find the version of herself that was lost to darkness and pain. What she uncovered was more miraculous than she expected. No, she did not return to her former identity. Instead, she created a self and life that was far more remarkable than she ever imagined.

Upon reading, be prepared to be taken from the depths of despair to golden nuggets of wisdom gained from life experience and studying psychology, hypnotherapy, reiki, colour therapy, crystals and metaphysics.

Trust there is a whole unseen world alive with magic and joy waiting for you! Allow yourself to tap into it as you turn the pages. You are never alone, have faith that change is possible!
