Self Supported Healing
On your journey to healing and transformation, you may need to engage in “self” discovery, finding and supporting the parts of you that hold old thoughts, feelings and beliefs that interfere with your ability to experience the authentic “Self.” These parts need to be held with compassion and understanding and be unburdened of old emotional baggage.
The process of acknowledging your wounds can be painful and often requires self-supporting tools to facilitate change. Developing personal rituals of listening, processing, and releasing old emotions may be facilitated by using tools that support the process. These tools may include guided meditations, expressive writing, EFT (aka tapping), parts theory, etc.

In A Garden of Dreams: How Beating Resistance Led Me Out of Despair and Into My Purpose
In 2006, Anne began a journey to heal a lifelong struggle with depression, anxiety and dissociation, secondary to childhood trauma. On that path, she found herself stumbling through grief and despair, unable to engage with a life she no longer wanted to live. In this book you will learn the tools she used to get off that cliff edge and out of the worst depression of her life. Resistance can keep you immobilized and helpless, unless you know how to defeat it. In this book she will teach you how to beat resistance and find the authentic voice of Self.
