Beyond Superwoman: Anxiety, Strength And The Spaces In-Between

House paid off, money in the bank, and son fully independent, Cindy Moussi had worked hard and accomplished fast. However, by 43, she was burnt out and exhausted from trying to prove herself. She yearned for the slow life. So she made a decision. It was time for a gap year! A fun year free of external demands. A year to inquire about life?s deeper meaning and `what?s next??. Cindy moved from the fast pace of Sydney back to her small home on ten-acres in the country, ready for a slow and simple existence of yoga and permaculture, with time to walk the Camino de Santiago. It was also time for her spiritual awakening!But there was one problem: Cindy?s `superwoman? was in charge of slowing down, and she had no idea what the experience would evoke. It would be a time of profound joy and loss, followed by the agonising grip of anxiety, overwhelming dread, and unrelenting terror that became her permanent companion. It would also be a time of learning to listen to her own deeper intuition, and having the courage to trust and act upon its profound insights.Cindy weaves in her personal story of growing up in war-torn Lebanon as well as tracing her family history to times of starvation and massacres. This was the beginning of her journey to inquiring, and eventually understanding, the question of `how could this happen to me??This is not a book of answers. It is a book about the courage to open up about life?s painful events that can lead to anxiety and conquering the shame that accompanies it. This is a book with no ending, but rather, a new, and more gentle, beginning.
