Receiving & Release: Getting Out of Prison from the Inside Out

THE KEY IS WITHINSome prisons are behind walls. Others dwell in the mind. This blend of memoir and storytelling, a mother's journey alongside her middle son's incarceration--and it's impact on their family--becomes a map for breaking free from blockages built from old wounds, survival patterns, and limiting beliefs--barriers that keep us from love, purpose, and meaningful connection with family, others, and the Sacred.The narrative speaks to those who know the grip of addiction, the ache of family fracture, incarceration, and the long road toward redemption. Through story, it reveals how the support of groups can magnify change and nurture the inner work that carries us through the darkest night of the soul.Lived experience is woven with family systems theory and Jung's dreams, archetypes, and complexes. Teachers, professors, educators, and therapists will find examples of how thoughts that support addiction and dysfunction are transformed at the meeting place of relationships and the metaphysical.This is for anyone dealing with addiction, co-dependency, or dysfunctional families.
