"I pray you heal so deeply that you no longer feel the need to make sense of what happened"

Returning is a collection of meditations and reflections on trauma, shame, self-love and healing. It invites the reader to feel seen, know they are not alone, and discover how deeply love heals.

The book is divided into three chapters: seeing, healing, and loving. As you turn the pages, may you find yourself returning to yourself, a self you have lived separated from for far too long. You can find the permission to love yourself again or maybe for the first time.

Jerry is an author, speaker, and host of the Permission To Love Podcast. He is a trauma survivor who carried the unhealed wounds of childhood trauma and shame for over 40 years. He now shares his journey of healing and returning to himself in hopes that others will find the permission to love themselves.
