Download or read book Healing for Adults Who Grew Up in Adoption or Foster Care written by Renee Wolfs and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2015-03-21 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Positive and practical, this guide is designed to offer a route to recovery from grief and loss after adoption or long-term foster care. Children growing up in adoptive families or foster care often have complicated feelings about the loss of their birth parents - feelings which become all the more complex as they gain independence and become young adults, and which can endure throughout their lives. Common life events such as entering new relationships, building a family or losing a loved one can give rise to difficult questions about their own childhood and identity. In this book, Renée Wolfs provides an accessible explanation of the feelings of loss and grief commonly experienced by adults who grew up in adoptive families or foster care, and how debilitating they can be. She provides grounded advice and strategies to aid recovery and provides the reader with a useful tool: The Circle of Connecting. The Circle provides strategies for healing from loss, spanning all seven elements of your life: your body, mind, heart, environment, past, present and future. This book is essential reading for older teens and adults who need help in addressing feelings of grief and loss, as well as those who support them including adoptive and foster parents, social workers, counsellors and therapists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Birthmother griefa type of grief many dont know at all, yet some know all too well. The author, Cynthia Christensen, trudged through her own grief after the adoption of her son, Joshua. Being a private person, she did not want to do one-on-one counseling so she decided to travel the path with only one counselorJesus. Walking alongside Jesus proved to be not only healing but restorative, and life-changing. While counseling at an adoption agency and talking with others whose lives have been touched by adoption, the author recognized that many post adoption birthmothersbirthfathersfamily members never fully recovered from the grief of adoption. Restorative Grief is a bible study written for the sole purpose of restoring broken hearts and shattered lives, by dealing with the pain of separation that follows the extremely emotional events leading up to the relinquishment of a child. Through her willingness to share the emotional and physical struggles she faced, Cynthia has used her experience to provide a step by step recovery process that will help lead the reader to a full recovery of mind, body and soul through the healing power and love of Jesus Christ. Restorative Grief should leave its readers ready to rise up from the ashes and stand tall, as Daughters of A King!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have experienced two of the most profound experiences God offers us on this earth: the overwhelming joy of adopting children, and the overpowering grief of losing a child from the tragedy of heroin addiction. In this book, I have placed everything my heart holds. It is a blend of happy experiences with my children as my husband and I raised them, horrific experiences as we helplessly watched one child's life painfully ripped apart in a storm of evil, and the unimaginable aftermath of losing a child. Tears from all these are spread throughout these pages. In his death, my child was redeemed and set free. I was left picking up the pieces of my broken heart, shaking my head, and trying to understand why. God's overpowering love and sovereignty had raised a sword against one of Satan's greatest tools, the power of addiction. Was my child nothing more than a casualty of spiritual warfare? God is good. Did I still believe that? This book chronicles my journey through His Word, listening for whispers from heaven, until finally, I too am set free. Today,Tonight,Tomorrow was written by Him,for Him,and belongs to Him. I pray that this book will help fight the spread of the addiction plague that has been so carefully orchestrated by the enemy and will help provide comfort to those already caught in the battle.

Book excerpt: This addition to the Adoption Healing series is a compilation of all the articles that I have been asked to write in the last year, These articles address specific issues faced by adoptees and mothers of adoption loss. These articles suggest additional exercises and methods of healing the wounds while working towards better relationships, peace and contentment. - "Joe Soll has probably worked with adoptees and first parents more than anyone else on the planet. His approach has always involved empathy, intuition and introspection, without which dialogue runs dry. Few know the depth of the adoptee and first parent experience as well as Joe Soll, especially the dark side, where loss and loneliness reside. Combining his experience, or perhaps we should say wisdom, with current therapeutic approaches, Joe creates an environment where growth can occur. Read his work, try it out, see how it works for you." - Robert Andersen, M.D., psychiatrist, author of Second Choice: Growing Up Adopted and A Bridge Less Travelled: Twice Visited

'Adoption and Recovery - Solving the mystery of reunion' is her second book. After publishing 'Adoption and Loss - The Hidden Grief', Evelyn was contacted by many who had read and been deeply affected by it. Evelyn subsequently travelled within Australia and in New Zealand, the United States, Canada, England, the Republic of Ireland, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Romania and South Korea presenting seminars and conference papers and meeting those who had a personal experience of adoption, as well as therapists working in post-adoption counselling. Evelyn became aware, from all of those interactions, that many were struggling to understand what drove those who had been separated from family members by adoption to seek them out later in life and by the issues which arose when reunions occurred. Evelyn has written this book in the hope of supporting and enlightening those people. 'Adoption and Recovery - Solving the mystery of reunion' is the first book to explain the dynamics of the reunion experience within a grief framework. The book was published in 2004 and updated in 2018.
