Laurie wrote this book in a vulnerable and honest way to help explain how holding onto confining emotions can rob you of precious time in your life. She hopes to prevent others from suffering the way she and her family did. She describes the struggles that her and her parents had with confining emotion. After losing both of her parents and witnessing how they had difficulty in releasing their old emotions and belief patterns, she unearthed ways in which she needed to heal her own life. As she searched for ways to comfort her parents in their health journeys, she learned ways that would eventually also help many others. She empowers her clients by teaching them how to change their perspectives and open their hearts to seeing confining emotions as only a guidance system and not something to punish themselves with striping themselves of their own personal power.
