They are using the three tools that allow us to weather life's stormiest seasons: narrative, ritual, and purpose. In her debut book, Harvard- and Stanford-trained child and adult psychiatrist Suzan Song draws from her clinical practice, patient stories, research, and public health work to help readers release their unrealistic longing for stability, and open them up to a new, heathier mindset.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile most of us will not experience the horrors of torture or being held hostage, there are countless uncertainties and dangers that are common in everyday life.
