Too often we’ve been taught to view our emotions with suspicion, seeing them as something to be suppressed, managed, or mastered. This isn’t true. Emotions are not your enemy. Internal war is not your destiny. You were created to flourish.
In this game-changing book, trauma therapist and mental health expert Dr. Anita Phillips reveals how embracing emotion is the key to living your most powerful life. Just as gardens thrive in good ground, the abundant life you’ve been seeking can only be grown in the soil of your heart.
Blending faith, the latest discoveries in neurobiology, and her own research and work as a licensed therapist, Dr. Anita shows you how to cultivate a state of emotional well-being that can:
strengthen your body and reverse the effects of trauma,calm anxiety and renew your mind, andunleash a new level of spiritual power in your life.
This book will equip you with the tools you need to nurture a part of yourself that has been misunderstood for too long — your heart — setting you free to live just as the Creator intended.
AUTHENTIC. FRUITFUL. POWERFUL

A Beautifully Written Textbook
The author creates a “beautifully written textbook” to share the connectedness between God’s creation of the Garden of Eden, and His creation of the same garden within us. It is an excellent read for anyone who wishes to understand how mental and emotional well-being are rooted in our physiological design. It provides clarity on scripture and psychological theories and therapy practices. It gives the reader permission to sit with their emotions and to explore their relationship with God, Faith and with their garden within. As a therapist, I found this book extremely helpful and validating as I’ve worked to help others understand the connection between mental health and faith. It is an excellent read. Thank you, Dr. Phillips for sharing your work with us! Simply beautiful.

A book I never thought I really needed
I wish this book was available a long time ago! I just did not want it to end. I kept on slowing down my reading even though I kept on desiring wanting to read more. Truly was a form of healing for me. I will gift it to my loved ones, surely!
