as well as help, hope and reassurance for families, friends, and caregivers. Readers will feel recognized and encouraged by hundreds of moving first-person accounts drawn from interviews and the author's extensive work with survivors, both nationally and internationally. Available in translations, as well as in an enhanced audio format, its life-saving messages resonate across cultural, linguistic, racial, religious, and geographical boundaries. New elements included in this fourth edition are: - an emphasis on self-care and pacing during the healing process - contemporary research on trauma and the brain, memory , and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) - an increased focus on the body's role in healing - an overview of powerful new healing tools such as imagery, meditation, spirituality, and body-centered practices - stories that reflect an even greater diversity of survivors and their experiences - in-depth guidance to help assess evolving family relationships - new prose and poetry - reassuring accounts of survivors who have been healing for more than twenty years - insights from the authors' decades of experience - and a comprehensive up-to-date resource guide. Readers have called The Courage to Heal "invaluable," a "beacon of hope," "wise and gentle," and a "lifesaver." Cherished by survivors, and recommended by therapists and institutions everywhere, The Courage to Heal has long been considered an empowering recovery tool, as well as an essential resource for
victims
