Healing Motivation

Life is not a straight line and grief is not linear! This book is a story of a personal journey of loss, grief, and pain. It is also a story of healing and growth. It aims to give hope to those experiencing loss and grief and to let each one know that they are not alone on this journey.

This is a self-help workbook. You get the chance to journal your thoughts, which is why the book is titled Writing My Life!: Creating My Mental Wellness!. By writing, you are afforded the opportunity to look at your thoughts and beliefs and to determine whether they are useful and conducive to you goals, health, and growth.

This here is a complete collection of all the books carefully placed in one audiobook to help you understand the connection between these stories and their coming together. Listen on for a fascinating wonder into the worlds that exist beyond the veils of this life. This collection includes five titles which all tell of experiences and journeys of the inner self.

The author overcame the troubles surviving when real estate crashed in America. She explained the loss of her father and how the past haunted her, her struggle with racism since childhood growing up in Indonesia, and hurtful remarks of her high school boyfriend's mother when she was growing up as a young adult, struggling with her health, which made her lose her hair and her ability to walk and write.

In Chingona, Mexican American activist, scholar, and podcast host Alma Zaragoza-Petty helps us claim our inner chingona, a Spanish term for "badass woman." Working for change while preserving her spirit, a chingona repurposes her pain for the good of the world. She may even learn that she belongs to a long line of chingonas who came before her—unruly women who used their persevering energy to survive and thrive.

We all struggle. We doubt our abilities, and we feel hopeless about our future. For some of us, these struggles manifest as depression, and for others, as a rough patch. In difficult times, we lean on our friends for comfort and guidance. We consult that one person with the wisdom and courage to tell us exactly what we need to hear.

In Point Man Ministries we have a patch that says, "not all wounds are visible". It is a sobering reminder of the internal damage often suffered by combat veterans and others with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I've had a story to tell from the moment I stepped back onto American soil in 1970 after serving in Vietnam for a year, but it took 50 years for that story to find the right words, and for those words to find their voice. My time in Vietnam ended in 1970, but I carried my experiences home with me like a heavy backpack full of unprocessed emotion.

Every normal human lifespan contains passages that deserve attention, intention, and ritual. This book shows us how we can do that with minimal disruption to our normal lives and without the need for teachers, ministers, or gurus. This isn't a religious book. All beliefs and non-beliefs are welcome. Listeners will leave with practical suggestions for living a more meaningful life each and every moment. Chapters end with a list on "what you need to do now".

This book will help you understand how a toxic person thinks, how they spin their web of manipulation, and how you can find your way out. You will learn more about the beautiful person that you are and how to recreate a life that is all about you for a change.This is a healing journey. You deserve to own your voice and feel empowered again. It’s time to take back control. I’m with you every step of the way.
