Nautilus Book Awards Gold Winner

Discover a path of post-traumatic growth, spiritual insight, and deep compassion for the most challenging parts of yourself.

Ralph De La Rosa integrates Richard Schwartz's revolutionary Internal Family Systems (IFS) model with Buddhist meditation practice to offer a radically different healing paradigm.

If you're among those who've tried therapy and meditation but wonder why you still suffer repetitive patterns and emotions, Outshining Trauma is for you. De La Rosa places the innovative, evidence-based model of IFS in the context of Buddhist meditation to show that the process of healing trauma can lead you to your deepest spiritual nature.

This book offers clear conceptual frameworks to understand trauma, post-traumatic growth, and the close relationship between healing trauma and spirituality. The many journal prompts, experiential practices, and guided meditations will teach you how to-

See that your mind is made up of disparate "parts" that carry their own views and intentions which can become stuck in traumatic experiences
Recognize common types of inner parts in the IFS model, such as "Managers," "Firefighters," and "Exiles"
Separate from a part inside of you that's holding grief, pain, or other difficult feelings and then elicit its concerns and wisdom
Utilize meditation as a method for opening to transformative self-compassion and self-love

A survivor himself of depression, PTSD, and addiction, De La Rosa shares gripping, inspirational life stories to demonstrate the path of outshining trauma.
