Interview With Self-Help Author: LORRAINE NILON

Excerpt from
AWESOME GANG Self-Help Author Interview

Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
The best way to describe myself is busy. I love what I do, and never have enough hours in the day to do it. However, I do consciously value my down time catching up with family and friends. I believe life has to have balance. My children have grown and left the nest, and I am embracing the next stage of my life.

Life is like a book and you experience different chapters. Some chapters are a reconnaissance phase building awareness, others have great upheaval and there are some chapter that move you to the next section, opening up to new chapters that allow the tapestry of wisdom gathered, to shine. I live knowing life is an ever-evolving event.

Human connection is important to me and I love to engage in honest conversations. I am passionate about philosophy, personal growth and awakening to our authentic selves. I value being self-reflective and I enjoy participating in the exploration of the reality of life on all levels, from the exquisiteness of our soul truth and to the depths of our emotional baggage.

I find people intriguing, and respect our lives as soul journeys. This is evident in the 3 books I have written.

Spirituality, Evolution and Awakened Consciousness – Getting real about soul maturity and spiritual growth.
Hidden within ourselves are answers to our own questions! It is a book that assists you to tap into our own wisdom. This book is an experience, you’ll laugh, cry, get frustrated, feel relieved and celebrate your Aha moments. This inspiring book arms you with the essential tools needed to develop emotional maturity and spiritual growth.

Packed with wisdom, stories and questions that lead you on a journey of self-discovery, encouraging you to step off the merry-go-round of harsh self-judgement and awaken to your significance.

Your insight & Awareness Book – Your life is an expedition to discover the truth of yourself.
Designed to be a concept finder so you can delve deep into the issues surrounding your self-awareness and assists you to acknowledge what gets in the way of self-acceptance. You randomly flip open the book and where ever your eyes land, read as little or as much as you like and then contemplate what has been highlighted for you.

Breaking Free from the Chains of Silence – A respectful exploration into the ramifications of abuse hidden behind closed doors.
This book resulted from a twelve-year exploration into the true ramifications of childhood sexual abuse. In my Soul Intuitive®-Life Coaching sessions I started to work with countless childhood abuse victims who endeavored to become emotionally healthy survivors and thrivers.

This type of abuse is not my history and I was educated by victims of abuse. Their honesty allowed me the privilege to document the stored energy, beliefs, fears and misconceptions that keep many victims struggling with life.

It is a difficult book to read because it is a difficult subject. However, recovery doesn’t occur without an honest and respectful exploration into what needs to be healed to feel whole. An invaluable resource for victims of any type of abuse or child protection advocates.
