  Those who have had a narcissistic parent can testify to how damaging it can be to one's psyche. Narcissistic parents lack empathy, show a severe sense of entitlement to micromanage the lives of their children, and often subject their children to neglect, as well as emotional, psychological, and physical abuse. From the unique challenges daughters of narcissistic fathers face to the ways in which adverse childhood experiences affect our brains, Shahida Arabi's insightful essays resonate deeply with those who have been raised by narcissistic parents. In this new essay collection, Arabi explores how narcissistic abuse in childhood can set us up for trauma repetition in adulthood, affecting how we navigate relationships, the self, and the world. She pinpoints the toxic traits and behaviors of narcissistic mothers and fathers, exposing how covert abuse insidiously plays out in these specific dynamics. She offers the essential tools, skill sets, and healing modalities for survivors who have undergone a lifetime's worth of abuse, helping them to break the cycle once and for all for future generations.

  "The authors’ definition of trauma is valuably broad and complex, and their concepts are unpacked in nonjudgmental terms. It’s a solid addition to the rising tide of literature on trauma." —Publishers Weekly   A groundbreaking collaboration between Dr. Richard Schwartz, founder of Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Dr. Thomas Hübl, renowned teacher and trauma healing facilitator, on healing individual, ancestral, and collective trauma to reclaim resilience and transform our worldWe often view trauma as a personal wound to heal on our own—but trauma is rarely just an individual issue. It is shaped by ancestral burdens passed down through generations and by the collective pain we experience from the world around us. Beloved teachers Richard Schwartz and Thomas Hübl bring together their wisdom to chart a new path forward that addresses these deeper layers of wounding, so we can heal ourselves, our communities, and our world.In this powerful book, Hübl and Schwartz help us understand why individual trauma cannot be separated from the legacies of shared past and present traumas. The authors explore their respective approaches to trauma healing and how these modalities can work together. Schwartz is the creator of IFS, a highly effective, evidence-based therapeutic approach that teaches that we all contain many parts—and also have an undamaged, healing Self. Hübl has done powerful work on trauma healing, particularly collectively and in groups. Together, they offer methods and practices that help us begin to:• Release beliefs and emotions that no longer serve us• Break cycles of harm• Expand our awareness• Become more compassionate and curious as we healA chapter from Fatimah Finney, a licensed mental health counselor and a trainer at the IFS Institute, helps us apply these methods to the wounds caused by social injustices, such as racial bias and oppression. Through this work, Hübl shares, “We can unload the burden and create a more flourishing world.”

  The Wars of the Roses

  About empty thrones, a lot can be said. Throughout history, both ancient and near modern, a lack of an heir and the sudden death of a beloved monarch always meant trouble. When the position of a king is up for grabs, a lot of eager hands come forward. Pretenders and would-be heirs, cousins and nephews, bastard sons and daughters - they all came forward staking their claim to the throne. In the history of Medieval England, such episodes were many. Usurpers who oust kings and heirs, pretenders with long-forgotten dynastic claims: many once fought for the lucrative throne of the English Kingdom. However, by far the most important of all these historic episodes lasted from 1455 to 1487 - 32 long years of struggle and bloodshed in England. And that episode was known as the Wars of the Roses. These wars ravaged England, pitting two competing cadet families of the royal House of Plantagenet - York, and Lancaster. Their supporters, the Lancastrians and Yorkists, descended into bitter warfare over the throne. For their symbols they took red and white roses, respectively - thus giving the name to the conflict.
