Suzanne Oliver is a Science of Mind Practitioner and level two Reiki Practitioner after being a Recreational Therapist, stay-at-home mom, and teacher for 25 years. Now retired, she is pursuing her interest in sharing her research on suicide prevention.
In 2007, my oldest son, Josh, took his own life at age 21. He had been suffering from depression and anxiety for many years. I didn’t know anything about mental health issues at the time. We sought help from a psychiatrist, but Josh only got worse.
Unfortunately, the tragedy did not end there. My husband blamed himself for Josh’s mental illness since he also had suffered from depression his whole life. Counseling helped tremendously, but for two years I was sleepwalking through life. I started reading books about suicide, near-death experiences, spirit communications, and anything I could find to comfort me, to feel that Josh was okay in the spirit realm.
In 2011, my husband took his own life, and our family was devastated once more. I struggled again emotionally, but being very involved in my church and using the practices I had learned helped. I became interested in helping other people shift their thinking, but I had no idea how to do it; I was learning many strategies to help shift energy and thinking. Over 15 years after Josh’s death, I collected material from any source that could benefit mental health.
This book is an organized collection of that information I’ve learned along the way, plus current research. If I’d had the compilation of resources that you now hold in your hand, I may have been able to help Josh. With the strategies and practices in this book, you will be better informed about mental illness and how to help your loved one.
Oliver’s “holistic mind–body–spirit approach ensures that readers receive well-rounded support, addressing both emotional wounds and deeper spiritual aspects of recovery. Highly recommended.”
