Why are stress and anxiety neurodivergent issues? Quite simply, because much of the modern world isn’t designed by or for us. Most of us are constantly bombarded by demands we struggle to meet in environments we struggle to tolerate.

When we experience this ongoing, gnawing pressure from childhood, trauma is almost inevitable.

This book will provide you with tools and strategies to heal your childhood trauma allowing you to live fully.
