Abuse Survivors : Self-Guided Retreat: a memoir of healing

"Abuse Survivors: Self-Guided Retreat, a memoir of healing" invites the reader into a journey of spiritual healing through stories, prayers, guided meditation, journaling and scripture. The personal stories of Judy Brutz give insight into life experiences. Prayers sparked by the Lords Prayer offer grace-filled moments of understanding. Guided meditations invite exploration of self through imaging, creating mandalas and collages, or in walking a labyrinth. Journaling provides prompts for processing meditative experience. Scriptures at the end of each chapter relate to the name or descriptor for God used earlier in the Lords Prayer. Each chapter is a mini-retreat. Abuse survivors as well as spiritual directors, clergy, mental health providers, and people in the creative arts will find this work to be inspirational.
