Cerebral Palsy: 'A Story' Finding the Calm After the Storm - 'A perfect read for Covid-19' @Heatherboisseau @RedDoorBooks
Book Blurb
Living with cerebral palsy is enormously difficult. But what if you never knew you had it? This is the incredible story of Ilana Estelle.
Born the second of premature twins, from a young age Ilana knew she was different, but for all the wrong reasons. A child of the 60s, Ilana experienced first-hand the way that disability was so often brushed under the carpet and not spoken about. Her constant physical and mental struggles made her feel isolated, alone, frustrated, and misunderstood… it took 46 years for her to find out why.
Part memoir, part motivational guide, Cerebral Palsy: A Story is Ilana’s open and honest journey from an angry, confused child, knowing something was wrong, but not knowing what, to the ‘real’ her – a courageous woman using her experiences and lessons to create inspiring messages about mental and physical health, positivity, resilience and change.
It is a unique combination of mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing guidance, which is based on personal experience, not found anywhere else, borne out of personal experiences and written from a universal perspective.
There are all sorts of self-help, wellbeing books out there, but they're rarely based on personal perspectives.
Endorsement
"This book is not your typical self-help or inspirational book. It offers more than positive thinking that other writers peddle as life changing. Ilana's struggles and triumph are raw because she doesn’t try to portray herself as someone who has overcome every challenge in one fell swoop. She is able to balance her emotional experiences, without the dramatic flair. The book is effective in its portrayal of her struggles and successes because they are rooted in her truth." - Mai Cadiz

Thank you for reminding us of the treasure of your book Cerebral Palsy A Story.
I never tire of dipping in and out of its pages and of refreshing myself of its inspirational messages.
Thank you. Yes, I wrote the book so you could dip into it at your leisure, or when you need a pick me up, or read it from cover to cover.
There have been discussions on social media, about the books you're most likely to want to pick up in Covid, with books of alternative reality coming out on top. Particularly when it feels like the world is crumbling non-fiction can be difficult to read, but I promise my non-fiction book is a completely different read, a completely different non-fiction book.
It is a book that is based on intuition and working with your intuition helps you listen to your inner voice and that gives you the guidance from your journey and past experiences. Our intuition is our guide and teacher. It is within all of us.
I use my intuition to create inspiring messages about mental and physical health, positivity, resilience and change.
It is a perfect book for Covid-19.
