From Heartbreak to Wholeness [Paperback] Kristine Carlson

We all have had heartbreak in our lives, and most of us don't know how to process through it all, so we ignore, hide, deny or pretend we are OK. None of those choices are healthy and lead to further trauma's, or worse as time ticks on. Kristine has been there like all of us, and because she was able to come through all the layers of suffering, she has gained realizations that are very helpful to all who have suffered, or will suffer heartbreak in the future. Since she went through multiple gauntlets to today feeling more whole and complete, she reaches out a hand, a shoulder, to the reader as a way-shower through their own journey from heartbreak. That journey, while a solitary one at it's core, is not one we have to go alone. I felt in reading her words she knows what I am feeling, what I am going through, and offers insights, support, and tough love that's so compassionately timely and right on. If you are feeling the many aspects of heartbreak, pick up this book . . . allow it be be your support system . . . and begin your own healing and return to wholeness!

This is NOT a book about loss! This is a book about how to fall in love with life and be your best version every day through any situation..I truly felt like Kris held my hand through a beautiful transformation. The way she shared her journey and experience while guiding me through the depths of my journey and showed me how to use journaling as a tool in my healing process was profound! This book gave me many gifts that have transformed my life for the better but it also gave me the gift of being able to gift these words to friends and family going through transformation and pain when there are no words I could share to make a tough situation better.. I will for the rest of my journey have several copies on hand to share! This book is a beautiful gift!!

This is the book that I wish I'd had at earlier pivotal moments in my life, when loss or major change left me in searing pain and feeling less confident about myself ... and about life. The stories of emotional triumph alone make this book worth reading. But then Kristine takes us deeper --- through a transformational process where our own story and journey of healing becomes the "medicine" for restoring our hearts. Loss and crisis is just the starting point of this book, because truly it is a manual for living our deepest purpose and falling completely in love with life!

I had the privilege of reading this book before it was launched and ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! It hit home with me on so many levels and each chapter opened my heart and mind to more possibilities of life after difficulty. Kristine has a way of making you feel like you are the only one she is talking to through her words and wisdom. No matter what loss or challenge or change you are experiencing...this book will guide you through life's next chapter.

This is such an important book! As someone who has experienced deep pain and loss myself, it is nice to find a book that really addresses the depth, complexity, and intensity of this experience...and a pathway to not only move through it, but to be able to heal and transform in the process. I admire Kris Carlson's courage, wisdom, and strength...and I highly recommend this book!
