She covers all the sickness she was suffering in her early life, from Panic Disorder to Sjogren’s Syndrome, which probably would have either positive or negative impacts to her. The research also covers the researcher’s reflections on her life after each significant impact- how she restructured her life, shifted, let go, and surrendered.
