Publisher Description: Our family legacies, both positive and negative, are passed down from one generation to the next in ways that are not fully understood. This secondary form of trauma, which Gita Baack calls "Inherited Trauma," has not received adequate attention--a failing that perpetuates cycles of pain, hatred, and violence. In The Inheritors, readers are given the opportunity to reflect on the inherited burdens they carry, as well as the resilience that has given them the power of survival. Through engaging stories and unique concepts, readers will learn new ways to explore the unknowns in their legacies, reflect on questions that are posed at the end of each chapter, and begin to write their own story. |
Contributor Bio(s): Arian Baack Phd, Gita: - Gita Arian Baack holds a PhD from Tilburg University, The Netherlands in association with Taos Institute, and an MA in Human Systems Intervention from Concordia University, Montreal, Canada. For over thirty years, her consulting and coaching practice has been based on strengths-based interventions resulting in positive change and empowered individuals. Her research on the effects of trauma on inheriting generations has put her on a path to help "Inheritors" reclaim their lives and build on their resilience. She continues to coach individuals, runs dialogues with communities that have inherited devastating legacies, and speaks to diverse audiences. Dr. Baack lives and works in Ottawa and abroad. |
