What Happened to You?: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing (Healing Books Book 1)

Description

You are likely to be familiar with the question, “What’s wrong with you?” We’ve all encountered it at some point, and most likely, we’ve asked it ourselves. But have you ever considered that this might be the wrong question to ask?

In a powerful and compelling conversation, Oprah and Dr. Perry discuss the importance of our past in shaping us and why asking “What’s wrong with you?” might be an unhelpful and misguided question. They propose shifting the focus to “What happened to you?” instead. This may seem simple, but it has been groundbreaking in changing the way we understand and think about trauma, which in turn has offered a significantly more optimistic approach to recovery.

Asking “What happened to you?” also removes any unintentional blame or fault directed toward any traumatized individual. It favors a compassionate, empathetic approach to therapy and healing. But this is just one of the core messages of Oprah and Dr. Perry’s book.
