Produktbeschreibung
Drawing from her fascinating life experience and therapy practice, Farzaneh Guillebeaux offers an amazing blending of psychotherapy tools and spiritual teachings to help readers find joy and self-fulfillment, regardless of race, gender, or background. As a young Iranian student in the United States, Fafar was swept off her feet by an African-American in the 1960s, thrown into the belly of racism, and changed forever through the combined power of psychotherapy and spiritual transformation. She shares her journey here; throughout this book, Fafar expresses her love for the reader through her openness and authenticity, humor, and a personal narrative of her own struggles, pain, and inner process. Here, Fafar weaves the forces of spirituality together with a wealth of invocations from Bahá'i writings, professional expertise grounded in years of experience as a therapist, and profound lived experience on her own journey to knowing and loving herself-and applies this knowledge to the personal issues that challenge us all. This book offers wise and tested practical strategies and deep insights, bathed in her love of humanity and belief in its inherent goodness. The resulting tapestry is one which compels-and empowers-readers to embark on their journey to know and nurture their own self. The truths contained in this book are the truths that can set us all free.
Autorenporträt
Farzaneh (Fafar) Guillebeaux (M.A., M.S.) is a semi-retired psychotherapist with a specialty in Marriage and Family Therapy. She has conducted national and international training since 1988 in the areas of overcoming racism and sexism, the empowerment of women, inter-racial/intercultural marriage, communication skills, and conflict resolution. She has also presented at the Parliament of World Religions and at the first Sino-American Conference on Women's Issues in Beijing, China. Born in Iran, Fafar-a fifth generation Bahá'í-has lived in the United States for more than 50 years. This book is a result of her deep compassion and commitment to the ideas of spiritual transformation, birthed from her lifetime of personal and professional experience and guided by the principles of the Bahá'í Faith.
