Peace of Mind After Trauma

About this book

Trauma is more than a memory; it can remain as an unseen imprint and a bodily tremor long after the surrounding world appears normal. Hala El-Sheikh offers neither clinical slogans nor promises of instant recovery. She accompanies readers through the uncertain space between who they were and who they became after loss, betrayal, or sudden rupture. The book redefines peace as the capacity to contain pain without surrendering one's core. Through psychological reflection, it invites survivors to understand the hidden aftershocks and rebuild a self that need not resemble its former shape.
