Flowers in the Dark. Practices That Will Help Heal from Trauma and Find Support in Yourself

A book about how to cope with the aftermath of a traumatic event through mindfulness practice.
In this accessible and wise book, Buddhist nun and former doctor Dang Nghiem describes an approach to healing from trauma through mindfulness practice. Nghiem teaches readers meditation, breathing techniques, and self-love affirmations that help alleviate the emotional and physical consequences of traumatic experiences. In addition to practices, Nghiem presents scientific data she obtained during her medical training, as well as personal stories. These brief narratives enhance the emotional impact of the book, especially when Nghiem shares her own experience: she has survived violence.
The book is suitable not only for those who have experienced trauma: it will be useful for anyone seeking opportunities for growth and self-discovery.
