A longtime trauma worker, Laura van Dernoot Lipsky offers a deep and empathetic survey of the often-unrecognized toll taken on those working to make the world a better place. We may feel tired, cynical, or numb or like we can never do enough. These, and other symptoms, affect us individually and collectively, sapping the energy and effectiveness we so desperately need if we are to benefit humankind, other living things, and the planet itself. In Trauma Stewardship, we are called to meet these challenges in an intentional way-to keep from becoming overwhelmed by developing a quality of mindful presence. Joining the wisdom of ancient cultural traditions with modern psychological research, Lipsky offers a variety of simple and profound practices that will allow us to remake ourselves-and ultimately the world.

Laura van Dernoot Lipsky is a trauma social worker and educator.
Connie Burk is the executive director of the Northwest Network of Bisexual, Trans, Lesbian and Gay Survivors of Abuse.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

Imagine the whole world being one big library ...

This is exactly the idea behind bookcrossing, this worldwide forum for free reading, sharing and releasing books. The books should not only bring entertainment, spiritual edification, knowledge, fun (or whatever) to one reader, but to as many people as possible. Bookcrossers choose this unconventional way.

It would be a great pleasure if the finder makes an log entry in here (where did you meet the book, how did you like it, and how is the journey going on ...).

In order to do this, the finder does not need to register. The finder can remain completely anonymous. On the other hand, every new bookcrosser is an asset for our growing community.

Any doubts about registration? The website is SPAM-free; e-mail addresses and other personal information remain secret.

Enjoy reading the book and thank you for issuing journal entry!
