Radical Self-Care: Inclusive Tools for Overcoming PTSD, Heartbreak, Conflict, Anger, Discrimination, Addiction, Anxiety, and Other Trapped Emotions - Paperback

by Sage Liskey (Author), Tara Chávez (Illustrator)

What do conflict, PTSD, addiction, heartbreak, anxiety, anger, and parental dysfunction have in common? They all persist because of emotions that became trapped in the body from difficult experiences. Building on titles like My Grandmother's Hands, Complex PTSD, and The Body Keeps the Score, Sage Liskey reimagines how we think about life's struggles, making healing easier and more accessible for privileged, oppressed, and marginalized communities alike. Scientifically backed techniques to deal with big and small struggles are covered from over seventy books, hundreds of research articles, and the author's personal experiences. These include mindfulness, emotional releases, visualization, conflict resolution, asserting boundaries, EMDR, inner child work, psychedelics, correcting self-limiting beliefs, dealing with addictions, forming healthy relationships, and creating a more equitable society. Whatever you are experiencing, here are the tools to begin your journey to feeling better and becoming more resilient in life.
