Download or read book Journey into the Shadow and the Sunshine written by Annabel Harz and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2021-10-03 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey into the Shadow and the Sunshine continues the theme of Journey into the Dark and the Light, the first book by Annabel Harz. Disarmingly honest words and images reveal more of her personal experiences: the deep shadows of loneliness and depression; the recognition of the value of survival at her lowest point of feeling unworthy; the importance of mental and physical space in creating a safe place for personal exploration and growth; and ultimately the sunshine of wellbeing when—through sheer grit and endurance—her personal demons had been conquered and set free. Sustained effort is required to rise out of depression once it is established as a daily state of being. The poetry and artwork in this collection exemplify the resilience required to rise above the despair of mental ill-health, and with candour and sincerity depict the internal strength which facilitates reaching a place of well-being. When words so incisively and uniquely capture the experiences of pain, misery, shame and heartache, it gives the mind and soul a new way of understanding these events. And perhaps, these words then help to heal. Annabel’s words reflect the experiences of so many who span the wide spectrums of gender, age and neurodiversity. As painful as these words might be for some of us to read, these words also give hope—a pathway out of a dark place. —Sonia Street, Senior Psychologist, private practice; Psychology Board-approved psychology supervisor; teaching associate, Monash University, Victoria It would be difficult not to feel moved by Annabel’s raw and personal work. The beauty of this book is the transition from emotions of her feeling hopeless and powerless to understanding, that to enable healing, strength and love always needs to come from within. Thank you, Annabel, for openly sharing your emotional journey, I’m sure it will give hope to many. —Christa Green, Intuitive Guidance and BodyTalk Practitioner, Sydney

Download or read book A Journey From Sunshine to Shadow written by Paris L. Bump and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2022-07-01 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Journey from Sunshine to Shadow By: Paris L. Bump A Journey from Sunshine to Shadow illuminates the tragic and painful journey travelled by a victim of Alzheimer’s and the loved ones who witness the slow decline and final days of her life. The general public knows little about Alzheimer’s and even less about why so little funding and research is devoted to its prevention and cure. Considering the rapid aging and demographics of the population, it should be obvious that public funding for this disease is grossly inadequate. The brilliant woman portrayed in this book was afflicted at age sixty-four and passed away two months short of her seventy-first birthday. Without the help and support of the several loyal women who provided care and assistance through the years of suffering and anguish endured by this dear woman, the toll on the author would have been unbearable. There are more good and kind people around us than we realize—more than some would have us believe.

Download or read book My Life in the Sunshine written by Nabil Ayers and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-06-07 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Nabil traces the image of his father through song. With growing fascination and heartbreak, he draws out meaning from the shadow of absence, and ultimately redefines what it means to be a family.” - Michelle Zauner, New York Times bestselling author of Crying in H Mart and Grammy nominated musician Japanese Breakfast A memoir about one man's journey to connect with his musician father, ultimately re-drawing the lines that define family and race. Throughout his adult life, whether he was opening a Seattle record store in the '90s or touring the world as the only non-white band member in alternative rock bands, Nabil Ayers felt the shadow and legacy of his father's musical genius, and his race, everywhere. In 1971, a white, Jewish, former ballerina, chose to have a child with the famous Black jazz musician Roy Ayers, fully expecting and agreeing that he would not be involved in the child's life. In this highly original memoir, their son, Nabil Ayers, recounts a life spent living with the aftermath of that decision, and his journey to build an identity of his own despite and in spite of his father’s absence. Growing up, Nabil only meets his father a handful of times. But Roy’s influence is strong, showing itself in Nabil’s instinctual love of music, and later, in the music industry—Nabil’s chosen career path. By turns hopeful--wanting to connect with the man who passed down his genetic predisposition for musical talent—and frustrated with Roy’s continued emotional distance, Nabil struggles with how much DNA can define a family… and a person. Unable to fully connect with Roy, Nabil ultimately discovers the existence of several half-siblings as well as a paternal ancestor who was enslaved. Following these connections, Nabil meets and befriends the descendant of the plantation owner, which, strangely, paves the way for him to make meaningful connections with extended family he never knew existed. Undeterred by his father's absence, Nabil, through sheer will and a drive to understand his roots, re-draws the lines that define family and race.

Download or read book Lighter Than My Shadow written by Katie Green and published by Random House. This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A poignant, heart-lifting graphic memoir about anorexia, eating disorders and the journey to recovery Like most kids, Katie was a picky eater. She’d sit at the table in silent protest, hide uneaten toast in her bedroom, listen to parental threats that she’d have to eat it for breakfast. But in any life a set of circumstance can collide, and normal behaviour might soon shade into something sinister, something deadly. Lighter Than My Shadow is a hand-drawn story of struggle and recovery, a trip into the black heart of a taboo illness, an exposure of those who are so weak as to prey on the vulnerable, and an inspiration to anybody who believes in the human power to endure towards happiness. ‘Even at its most heartbreaking it never feels sombre ... Inspiring, plucky and, in the end, consoling, it’s hard to put down’ Observer
