After the Blue Light: One Soul’s Healing Journey: a Retrospective on Surviving Through and Thriving After Emotional Trauma

As humans we’re composed of mind, body, and soul (spirit). In order to lead healthy, happy, and fulfilling lives, these three aspects of our human experience must be in balance. For most of us, it’s the soul that we pay the least attention to and know least about. Similar to our minds and bodies, our souls can become ill, particularly after we experience emotional trauma. Our mainstream health and wellness systems have plenty of resources to help us treat our bodies when they’re ill and resources to treat the mind are becoming more acceptable and available all the time. However, treatments for the soul are still relatively unknown and not readily available in most areas. After the Blue Light: One Soul’s Healing Journey takes a soul-conscious approach to dealing with some of today’s more prevalent mental health issues, including anxiety and depression. Author Margaret-Ann Hall blends light-hearted personal anecdotes, easy-to-understand explanations, and relatable advice, introducing a comprehensive spiritual belief system for coping with and healing emotional pain caused by traumatizing life experiences, such as childhood abuse, divorce, and suicide. She identifies resources-both within and outside mainstream health and wellness systems-to help process emotional pain, providing empowering and enlightening ways to heal from the devastating effects of trauma and to find fulfillment in the aftermath. This self-help guide is for anyone who has been impacted by traumatizing life experiences and is searching for deeper meaning and healing than more traditional (e.g. anti-depressants) techniques can provide.
