Book excerpt: From Bitter to Better! GOD has a way of setting you up. He has orchestrated every scene of your life. You will have no clue whom He will use, what He will use, or how He will use the who or the what, but you will find out why when you surrender to the crushing process. For Shonda Boyd Brown, it was in her marriage of 22 years that GOD used to process her for purpose. GOD will take the wounded areas of your life and use them for your good to help others. It is through the pain of childhood trauma, molestation, rape, miscarriage, a broken relationship, sickness, abuse, abandonment, betrayal, foreclosure, bankruptcy, loss of loved ones, disappointment, divorce, separation, church hurt, and rejection that you will find yourself traumatized and wounded seemingly beyond recovery. Shonda Boyd Brown found out that every wound will have a scab that represents the "GRACE of GOD." He will cover you and protect you in the process. Every wound will eventually turn into a scar; that scar will be a reminder of the road you traveled to get to your purpose. You will forever have the memory of it but will no longer feel its pain. So, do not "ABORT THE PROCESS.'' Someone is depending on you to come out. Stay committed regardless of how ugly it gets. The Potter will remold you as if it never happened. He will reset you on a firm foundation and elevate you in the presence of your enemies, and by this, you will understand that you serve a purposeful GOD, and nothing you ever went through was wasted. It was preparation for your DIVINE DESTINY!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Why am I so easily triggered?” “Why do I always attract the same abusive people?” “What is the cause of this pain and suffering in my life that makes it impossible for me to live a healthy life?” As far back as some of us can remember, living with quiet desperation to find the meaning of my mental pain and suffering, there seemed to be no solution. We wonder aimlessly for years, seeking answers to a problem that constantly affects our mental stability, and plagued by the vague uneasiness of this painful emotional and psychological scar, one asks themselves, "Why Me?" "Why am I the only person suffering from this childhood scar?" In our search for an answer, we see others living with this beautiful, perfect family life, excellent financial stability, and a successful life without struggle; we find ourselves becoming upset. I discovered that it was all an illusion; there are no ideal lives, no matter how well presented. Living without pain and suffering is an illusion because life is challenging and how we internalize trauma determines our reaction. Childhood Scars Release from Pain to Healing brings meaning to answering these questions. No book can answer all your questions. Still, this book provides an understanding of the causes of childhood scars to help you take control of your life, reestablish a connection with yourself, have better relationships and stability, manage feelings and emotions, and find inner peace to enjoy life. Picture yourself with Auntie San, asking these questions and getting answers to help you heal from a traumatic event and suggestions for living a healthier life.

You have not yet made a connection between that situation and the resources that will lead to a satisfying outcome. This is a book for everyone who has ever wished NLP could be clear and practical and rooted in evidence that what it teaches really works. Since 2003, Linda has been one of Canada's leading developers of NLP.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is not known to be easy. By the end of the day, you are bound to have a few nicks and tears on your ego. Usually, if you scrape your knee or cut your hand, you immediately treat it with first-aid. So why not do that for your emotional wounds, too? Emotional wounds often activate the same pathways in the brain as physical wounds, meaning they cause us just as much real pain as a physical hurt would. Therefore, part of self-care really calls for treatment of all emotional wounds. Many of us fail to treat our emotional wounds, however, because we are afraid to face the pain. Maybe the pain is traumatic, or maybe it is humiliating. We act in denial but this only hurts us more in the end. Unhealed emotional wounds can have a terrible effect on the sanctity of our lives. They can manifest in many ways, from overeating to addiction to relationship issues and low self-esteem. Stop the pain now. You don't need to live this way. You can take control of your life by healing your emotional wounds and ending the pain and the tears. This book is your guide to facing the pain. Why keep crying when you can address your pain and heal it yourself? Healing emotional wounds is not easy, but it is worth it. With the advice in this book, you can easily learn how to heal your wounds, change your thinking, and tackle life with a fresh, healthy mindset.
