MY SONG: Moving from Childhood Abuse to Gratitude, tells the story of a spiritual journey. A crazy up and down, slightly deranged journey of the author's life until her mid-70s. It is one she chose to take, and in some instances, one circumstances brought her to. The author thinks we always have a choice of how to navigate our life journey and what to make of it. The short story told here is a transformation from a child of abuse to a woman healer. The longer story describes the steps, decisions and people along the way who made the whole thing possible. This book includes growing up in a big family, marriage and children, divorce and single parenting, laughter, love, music and friendship, but also childhood trauma, dreams, visions, madness that sent her to a psychiatric hospital, and spiritual awakening. Her chosen fields of study in psychology, energy medicine and spiritual emergence inform the perspectives on her journey.
