Black girls breathing : heal from trauma, combat chronic stress, and find your freedom / Jasmine Marie.

Marie, Jasmine, (author.).

Summary:

"From breathwork practitioner and the founder of black girls breathing®, a practical path for Black women to heal trauma, combat chronic stress, and find freedom in their own bodies and minds. It's no secret that Black women have been oppressed for centuries and, as a Black woman herself, Jasmine Marie knows the impact that intergenerational trauma and systemic racism have had--and continue to have--on her community. Those experiences are why she founded a breathwork company dedicated to helping Black women access somatic practices and understand the power of the mind body connection to undo the trauma the carry. In Black Girls Breathing, Jasmine Marie shares the science-backed tools and wisdom of her program to help readers: -Connect more fully to their bodies. -Give themselves permission to rest. -Heal the chronic stress they carry in their bodies and nervous systems. -Address their emotional pain. -Rebuild themselves and their communities. Ultimately, this book is a long-overdue resource for every StrongBlack Woman: The woman ready to break cycles of trauma, heal the internalized beliefs of perfectionism and conditional self worth, and listen to the wisdom of her inner voice." -- Provided by publisher.
