Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her debut book, Gladys Famoriyo fearlessly tackles the growing issue of women carrying emotional baggage.It is a fact! On our journeys in life, we all experience challenges or situations that may result in hurt, pain, disappointment, grief and separation, leaving many of us emotionally battered, bruised and wounded. Often busy with our endless to-do lists, hats to wear, goals and busy schedules, many of us opt to bury our heads in the sand, trying our best to get on with life.To hide our issues, we wear a mask, try to look the part and show up each day. To cope, we adopt precarious coping methods (e.g. comfort eating, retail therapy, busyness, drugs, alcohol, sex, etc.). So, it is no surprise many of us are falling apart at the seams.Like Gladys experienced, you might look successful on the outside, seemingly having your act together. But the fact is your unresolved issues are sabotaging the great stuff in your life. Each day you show up, they show up too. Unbeknown to you, they are calling the shots of your life, influencing your decisions and choices (to mention a few).And so, Overcoming Emotional Baggage has been written for women, who quite frankly, want to ditch their baggage for good. Overcoming Emotional Baggage will help you:1) Become consistently aware of your emotional state and its impact on your life.2) Live a more abundant and balanced life.3) Start you on your journey to tackling self-defeating, unhealthy and/or self-destructive attitudes, beliefs and behaviours.4) Get rid of inner turmoil and conflict.Overcoming Emotional Baggage is a superb book packed with practical, no-nonsense insights, Christian principles and teaching, along exercises. Applicable for individual use or small groups, Overcoming Emotional Baggage promotes emotional restoration, wellbeing and 'baggage-free' living.
