How can you embrace your most expansive, authentic life when the world's hostility is always shoving you into fight or flight? Trauma specialist, multidimensional artist, and magickal practitioner Rosśa Crean draws upon their work with clients and their own experience with abuse and recovery in this powerful selection of reflections, prompts, and musings to support others navigating dark times. Each meditation is designed to help achieve a sense of calm, clarity, and perspective, allowing you to be the recipient of your own nurturing.

Embrace this transformative journey with open arms and an optimistic heart!
