Rebecca's Rose


Book Description

Rebecca's Rose is a dramatic memoir of three women's spiritual journey from the 1960's to the 2000's-a story about the power of love to persevere beyond human expectations. It's a true story about a family coping with the agony of a child with a severe mental disorder. Rebecca's challenging life, filled with the scream of ambulances and with courtroom drama, remains suspenseful because she fights her schizophrenia and does not surrender. In the end, the miracle is that, despite all the obstacles and all the pain, she and her family survive. Rebecca's Rose is primarily the story of a young woman's struggle with schizophrenia. But it is also about family relationships and, in particular, one sister's caregiving love for Rebecca, for her parents, and for her children. The close relationship between Jane and her mother only deepens with the approach of death, a death her mother almost welcomes. A year later, Jane's father is diagnosed with cancer and she must continue her painful journey. Jane's harrowing experiences are a cautionary tale for the baby boom generation, as sons and daughter deals with the aging, decline and impending death of their own parents.




It Tickled the Whiskers of My Soul


Book Description

This book is BY FAR my favorite book I've written. Many people may not know this about me, but about 5 years ago, I hit my rock bottom. I was severely depressed, addicted to unhealthy substances, and was pretty much done with people altogether. I would literally pack a bowl before going to bed each night so I could reach over in the morning first thing and get high. I didn't want to spend a second of my life sober, so I managed to sneak several smokes a day, even while at work. I hated my job. I practically starved myself into a skeleton. I was in debt. My relationships were strained. Overall, my life sucked. But in reality, it was my MINDSET that sucked. Today my life looks NOTHING like it once did-- the difference between night and day, really. I was able to transform my whole world over the course of several years by first changing my thoughts. After I hit rock bottom and finally decided that I had to change my life, I started reading hundreds of books about spirituality, positivity, manifestation, how to rewire the brain, etc. Over the years, I've taken notes on all of my favorite teachings, the ones that inspired me to blossom into the woman I am proud to be today. It Tickled the Whiskers of My Soul is a book of letters to my "darling little loves" for when they're older, just in case I'm no longer here by the time they're old enough to truly grasp what they're about. In the letters, I summarize the BEST spiritual teachings I've come across in my years of research and practice, the ones that changed my experience of the world in extraordinary ways. The words blessed and grateful hardly feel adequate to express how I feel about my life today. I LOVE MY LIFE NOW! And it's 100% due to the principles I've summarized in this book. The cherry on top is that I had it illustrated because I wanted my little loves to connect with it now, even though they won't read it for years to come. The illustrations are SO CUTE, and they make the book a million times more fun to read. I sincerely hope something in it will ignite something in you that'll provide a key to the greater richness life has to offer!

Rebecca says: Rise for you, rise for me, when you rise first you rise for She. Many of us have spent much of our working lives “making it” in a man’s world, leaning on patriarchal methods of survival in order to succeed, dulling down our intuition, and ignoring the fierce power of the feminine.

It’s about co-creating a whole new archetype—someone who does not keep themself small in order to make others feel more comfortable. Full of activations, spiritual tools, calls to action, contemplative questions, rituals, and confrontational exercises, this inspirational book teaches that it is safe to let Shakti rise, safe to trust your intuition, and safe to take leaps of faith—because in healing ourselves we are healing the world. “You have an ancient wisdom within you that is waiting for you to remember, hear, and heed it. These Rise Sister Rise calls to action have been carefully designed to assist you in reclaiming your voice, unbinding your power, unlocking your wisdom, unleashing your true nature, and aligning yourselves with the sacred flow of all of Life.” Rise Sister Rise.
