The Whole Sphere: Supporting Well Being And Recovery From Relational Trauma

Description

This book explores the concept of well-being to support personal growth and development and also to assist with recovery from relational trauma. The model used to do this is an acronym ‘Sphere’ (Spiritual well-being, Physical well-being, a sense of  Hope, Emotional well-being, Relational well-being and a sense of Engagement), and this is applied in a variety of ways, including offering:

• A simple framework to explore well-being.


• Easily accessible information about the impacts of relational trauma to help build self-understanding.


• Strategies to help with well-being.


• Ideas to help manage the impacts of relational trauma.


• How to undertake a self-assessment using the Three Houses tool and develop a plan from this.

The Whole Sphere is a valuable resource for social workers, counsellors and other helping professionals, as well as anyone seeking to gain greater understanding of supporting overall well-being and to understand the impacts of relational trauma.
