Too often we’ve been taught to view our emotions with suspicion, seeing them as something to be suppressed, managed, or mastered. This isn’t true. Emotions are not your enemy. Internal war is not your destiny. You were created to flourish.
In this game-changing book, trauma therapist and mental health expert Dr. Anita Phillips reveals how embracing emotion is the key to living your most powerful life. Just as gardens thrive in good ground, the abundant life you’ve been seeking can only be grown in the soil of your heart.
Blending faith, the latest discoveries in neurobiology, and her own research and work as a licensed therapist, Dr. Anita shows you how to cultivate a state of emotional well-being that can:
strengthen your body and reverse the effects of trauma,calm anxiety and renew your mind, andunleash a new level of spiritual power in your life.
This book will equip you with the tools you need to nurture a part of yourself that has been misunderstood for too long — your heart — setting you free to live just as the Creator intended.

Very eye opening and a lot of thoughts on navigating how people in general deal with things and what the better response would be on handling what life throws at you.

Managing Your Emotions
In The Garden Within, Dr. Anita Phillips has written a book about embracing emotions and the power we can experience. She begins by how she was traveling with Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts on a bus tour to 8 cities within 2 weeks. They were helping women with their emotions and what to throw away. Some of the common ones was insecurity, grief, anxiety, and fear. They are compared to the war that never ends. She explained how instead the heart is meant to be like a garden. She has worked for years a trauma therapist and she shared about how her own family struggled with mental illness. In the book, she shared how people are not okay right now. 2020 brought on some major depressive disorders and increased by 27.6 percent. Anxiety disorders also increased by 25 percent. She shared how we need to learn to grow our gardens and have relationship goals, purpose, and legacy goals. She explained how we must remove and cultivate our garden. We have to also replant our garden. She stated how our emotions begins in our bodies and doesn’t start in our minds.This book contained all sorts of powerful discussions on regrowing our garden and learning more about our emotions and how we can survive the war. This book is an excellent resource about managing trauma and realizing that you are not okay. She strongly tried to help readers to embrace whatever we have experienced in our lives and to realize how it has provided us with the lens we see the world around us. She looked at how the enemy enter Eden to led us to destruction and how sin entered the world because of this event. Healing from our past events can help to destroy that work.

The Garden Within; Where the war with your Emotions
Great book for a group book study! The reading was choppy and the case study wasn’t clear.
Mindy Beth Leeseberg –
Great resource for anyone who needs inner healing.
I purchased this book for a book club we are doing for church. I absolutely love this book, and have recommended it to several people already. I love that it addresses trauma with a compassionate, no judgement approach. This book makes you dig deep, and unpack things of your past, so you can get to the roots. I love that she doesn’t claim to fix everything and gives helpful resources for each of us, depending on our individual needs. Their are a few opinions or mindsets I don’t personally align with, that could have been left out of the book, but overall, it’s a great resource for anyone that has any healing to do. I am so thankful for our leadership sharing this book with us.

Un livre à lire! Absolument un must have pour toutes personnes désirant se reconnecter à ses émotions sous un éclairage scientifique et biblique.

Nowhere in the description does it say this is essentially a christian book. Almost every chapter is filled with bible verses and religious preaching. I feel misled and wasted my money. If I had wanted a devotional, I would have searched for one. Very disappointing and dishonest listing.
