Summary

Mute Tongues Speak explores the multifaceted journey of individuals overcoming speech impediments, emphasizing the importance of communication for personal, educational, and professional success. The book highlights sign language and therapeutic interventions as powerful tools for unlocking communication and fostering connection. It reveals that speech therapy has evolved alongside the recognition of sign language as a complete form of communication, challenging societal biases faced by those with speech challenges.

 
The book begins by examining the various causes of speech impediments, from developmental delays to neurological conditions. It then transitions into an exploration of sign language, covering its linguistic properties and practical uses. Subsequent chapters delve into therapeutic techniques like articulation exercises and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices.

 
What sets this book apart is its dual-track approach, addressing the immediate need for communication while also working on the underlying causes of speech impediments. The book's practical guide offers educators, therapists, and families actionable strategies for supporting individuals with speech impairments. By drawing on peer-reviewed studies, clinical trial data, and personal narratives, Mute Tongues Speak advocates for personalized strategies, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand and support communicative freedom.

    Exercises of healing and transformation for trauma survivors. 
 
 
 
Drawing from neuroscience and psychotherapy with empowering strategies to take charge of healing from trauma, this workbook follows the theme of each of the eight keys in 8 Keys to Safe Trauma Recovery. The two books complement each other; but it is not necessary to have listened to the original to benefit from this workbook, which presents practical exercises and activities integral to safe trauma recovery and designed to support listeners' control of their mind, body, and life in the aftermath of trauma. 
 
 
 
One thing is for sure: there is no one-size-fits-all method for healing trauma. This workbook will help listeners identify, assess, and celebrate the resources they already have, and add more resources to their toolbox. 
 
 
 
Most importantly, the authors do not subscribe to the old motto "no pain, no gain," fostering instead the concept that healing from trauma should not be traumatic.

    "I'm sorry, it's cancer."
Four words with the power to upend your entire existence and thrust you into an emotional whirlwind. As these words unravel, they unleash trauma, chaos, and threats to every facet of life – from health and body image to relationships, job, career, and future dreams. Thoughts swirl: What did I do so wrong to deserve this? How am I going to survive? Is my body going to be mutilated?
Agalia Baker, a retired advanced practice nurse with over forty years of experience, found herself shockingly unprepared when diagnosed with breast cancer. Searching for solace from the emotional hell she endured and unable to find answers, she took it upon herself to write the book she desperately needed during that challenging time. The result is an irreverent blend of healthcare insights and a personal journey seen through her eyes.
As Baker grapples with the emotional aftermath of her diagnosis, treatment, and failed reconstructive surgery, she unveils how the losses incurred due to breast cancer are intricately tied to the grieving process. Harnessing this information and understanding the body's natural defenses in response to threat is vital to withstanding the challenges facing someone in the midst of their own journey. This knowledge becomes a lifeline, empowering individuals to withstand the storm and make informed decisions during such a pivotal time.
