In a world that can feel divided and disconnected, everyone wants a quick fix to solve their personal issues. It’s not easy to just “get over” something that has hurt us deeply. But with the right mindfulness tools, we can enjoy a daily lifestyle of personal awareness and wellness.

A survivor of personal trauma, author Kelly Browne offers a practical guide to heal our hearts, one word at a time. Covering personal to professional relationships, she teaches readers:

How to Apologize Using the 6 R’s, Electronic Apologies: Text, Emojis, and Emailed Apologies, the Three Faces of an Apology, Meaningful Apologetic Words and Notes, Unacceptable Unapologetic Excuses, The Art of Self-forgiveness, Self-care Restitution: Take Care of You!, Choosing Compassion Over Revenge, Overcoming Trauma, Spiritual Support, and Navigating Family Dynamics and Broken Bonds.

In addition, the book also includes inspiration from Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s Four-Fold Path of Forgiveness following the ravages of apartheid, something we desperately need for healing racial divides in our current world.

Trauma survivor Kelly Browne evacuated her parents from their home during the Aliso Canyon SoCalGas Blowout over Los Angeles, the worst environmental gas disaster in U.S. history. She and her parent’s suffered permanent health damage from the toxic exposure. As Kelly’s mother spiraled into a fatal cancer diagnosis, her daughter Ava was brutally thrown from a horse at an unlicensed equestrian camp breaking her neck. Prevented contact with her parents, Ava snuck into an office to make the call to her mother that saved her life. The simultaneous emotional traumas that ensued from these challenging events were catastrophic. Kelly sought trauma therapy for herself and family, digging deep to embrace the tools she teaches in this book, forging ahead with tenacity, acceptance, forgiveness, and navigating a way to find her personal peace amidst the pain.
