Why We Suffer And How We Heal (the Three Keys To Flourishing Through Life's Challenges)

By (author) Dr Suzan Song
A psychiatrist who has dedicated her life to treating global survivors of unspeakable horrors shares the three keys to resilience for weathering stress, loss and trauma in our own lives. Some survivors are unflappable, yet it’s not their optimism or grit that carries them forward, but their acceptance of life’s inherent instability. In her debut book, Harvard- and Stanford-trained child and adult psychiatrist Dr Suzan Song draws from her clinical practice, patient stories and research to help readers release their unrealistic longing for stability, using the three tools that allow us to weather life's stormiest seasons: narrative, ritual and purpose.
