In Saving Your Rainforest Mind: A Guided Journal for the Curious, Creative, Smart, & Sensitive, psychotherapist and author Paula Prober will be your guide to recovering your strength, authenticity, and radiance-the radiance that may have been crushed under the pressures to be smartest, under the bully's taunts, schooling frustrations, expectations of exemplary achievement and traditional success, devastating loneliness, overwhelm, underwhelm, and the rubble of your ancestral baggage.
