  A Haunted House - From their...

  Virginia Woolf

  Adeline Virginia Woolf was born on the 25th January 1882 in South Kensington in London. 
  Although lauded as a founder of modernist writing with such classics as ‘Orlando’, ‘Mrs Dalloway’ and ‘To the Lighthouse’ and, of course, many classic short stories, her background is filled with elements of tragedy that she somehow overcame to become such a revered writer.   Her mother died when she was 13, her half-sister Stella two years later and with it her first of several nervous breakdowns.  Appallingly it was later found that three of her half-brothers had sexually abused her so darkness must have seemed ever present.   
  She began writing professionally at age 20 but her father’s death two years later brought a complete mental collapse and she was briefly institutionalised.  Somehow she found within herself a literary career and with it great innovations in writing; she was a pioneer of “stream of consciousness”.    
  Her tight circle of friends were the founders of the Bloomsbury Group, a movement whose legacy still influences across the arts and society in many way to this day.   
  Whilst the dark periods continued to interrupt her emotional state her rate of work never ceased.  Until, on 28th March 1941, Woolf put on her overcoat, filled up its pockets with stones, and walked into the River Ouse, in Lewes, East Sussex and drowned herself.  Her body was not recovered until the 18th April.  She was 59. 
  She left behind a note which read in part “Dearest, I feel certain that I am going mad again.  I feel we can't go through another of those terrible times.  And I shan't recover this time.  I begin to hear voices, and I can't concentrate.  So I am doing what seems the best thing to do”.

  The Shocking Truth about...

  Zoey Fraisers

  History is often taught as a collection of facts and figures, a linear progression of events that led us to the present. However, beneath the surface of the well-known stories, there are layers of complexities, contradictions, and untold truths that have been hidden, altered, or forgotten over time. The official narratives we’ve been presented with are not always the full picture, and many of the figures we revere have been shaped by myths and legends that obscure their true nature. 
    
  In this book, we aim to peel back the layers of history to reveal the shocking truths about some of the most famous and influential figures in history. From military conquerors to political revolutionaries, from monarchs to visionaries, the people who shaped our world often have stories far more complicated than the public image that’s been built around them. We will explore the hidden aspects of their lives and legacies, exposing the human flaws, the moral ambiguities, and the unspoken motivations that defined their actions. 
    
  As we journey through history, we must acknowledge that the stories we’ve been taught are often shaped by the perspectives of those who held the power to record and tell them. Whether it’s a ruler who built an empire through ruthless conquest or a revolutionary leader whose ideals were marred by controversy, the truth is often far more complicated than the legends surrounding them. The victors, after all, write history, and sometimes that history is crafted to protect reputations, justify actions, or preserve power.

  “The mother-daughter relationship is the most powerful bond in the world, for better or for worse. It sets the stage for all other relationships.” —Dr. Christiane Northrup 
  In her second book, Mama, Zuzana delves into the intricate tapestry of the mother-daughter bond, grappling with the resentment and anger she harbored towards her own mother. 
  Instead of severing ties, Zuzana embarks on a journey of understanding, exploring her mother's past and the influences that shaped her. Zuzana traces her mother's struggles with an absent mother, a strict father, and a life marked by displacement, uncovering the roots of her mother's struggles with belonging and unrealized dreams. This newfound comprehension becomes a catalyst for Zuzana's personal growth, propelling her to defy expectations and forge her own path, distinct from the traditional trajectory her mother envisioned. 
  Through Jungian Analysis, reading, and journaling, Zuzana learns to nurture the mother within herself, and is ultimately able to deliver a heartfelt eulogy at her mother's funeral—a testament to the transformative power of understanding and compassion. 
  Zuzana Plesa, a Zurich-trained Jungian Analyst and counselor, brings her extensive experience in navigating the complexities of mother-daughter relationships to her writing. Her work reflects a deep conviction that resolving these issues is fundamental to a woman's healthy development. When she isn't empowering women through writing or counseling active duty members and their families, Zuzana finds solace in the tranquility of gardening, reading, and swimming in beautiful Niceville, Florida.
