Did you know that the major factor that increases the risk of acute trauma or chronic stress developing into PTSD is helplessness?

“Rather than let myself feel how innocent and helpless I was as an abused child, I became filled with self-doubt and irrational guilt that haunted me into adulthood…until I learned to ‘let it BE’.”
--Shana T.
Successfully navigating change is directly proportional to our willingness to stop trying to control uncertainty.
We all have lots of ways to numb helplessness so we don’t have to feel it.
“Let it BE” requires connecting with your brave self so that not only do you stop trying to control what can’t be controlled, you send the uncontrollable on its way with hope and grace.

Course Instructor

Deborah Grassman

Founder

Few people have been with 10,000 dying veterans; Deborah Grassman is one VA hospice Nurse Practitioner who has. Dying veterans taught her lessons about how to attain personal peace. Ironically, those lessons came from people who had been trained for war! As a result, a phenomenon known as “Soul Injury” has now emerged as a relevant healthcare issue for the public. She contends that 10,000 dying veterans have lessons that the rest of us need to learn! Deborah is the author of two books, Peace at Last and The Hero Within. She is a contributing author for four textbooks, has 25 published articles, and there are 5 documentary films featuring her work.
