Description

As Elaine Porter was turning forty, she had never been so depressed in her life. But she had no reason to be unhappy. She decided to confront the issues that were making her miserable and started with a simple New Year’s resolution. This would be the first step on a yellow brick road that snaked around through horrifying yet liberating revelations of early abuse and neglect that she had no explicit memory of. Instead, the memories existed implicitly in her body as depression, anxiety, anger and despair, leaving her unable to connect with herself and others. As she walked out of the desert of early trauma, she found the mental, emotional, spiritual and physical woundings of the bodymind that lay the foundation for post-traumatic stress disorder. And, she explored many oases that harbored the tools and resources to help her heal those wounds. She discovered that she was not lost and she was not alone.
