You Can't Get There From Here

Healing the Inheritance You Didn't Ask For

You've done everything right. You worked hard. Read the books, did the affirmations, tried the gratitude journals, the courses, the therapists. So why does it still feel like the rug keeps getting pulled? Why are you exhausted, isolated, or stuck in patterns you did not choose and cannot seem to break?

Because some of what you are carrying was never yours to start with.

The self-help industry has named the symptoms for decades. This book names the source. Drawing on epigenetics, trauma neuroscience, and the wisdom traditions Western medicine has been slow to acknowledge, Fiona Ellis names three global civilisational wounds running through the nervous systems of an entire generation — and what we can do about it.

If you have read Bessel van der Kolk's The Body Keeps the Score and felt the answer was close but not complete — this is the next layer. The wounds are not just yours. The healing is.
