Description
Summary:"Patterns That Remain: A Guide to Healing for Asian Children of Immigrants empowers readers to heal from diasporic wounds and become people, partners, and parents who embody abundance mentalities grounded in joy, balance, and gratitude. Each chapter addresses culturally relevant topics among the Asian American community and is informed by research and stories from diverse Asian American community members and thought leaders. Readers will learn how scarcity mindsets, generational patterns, historical trauma, and other cultural scripts contribute to unhelpful patterns of thoughts, attitudes, and actions that impact relationships and overall well-being. The book combines history, storytelling, and culturally grounded perspectives to provide an inspirational, validating, and practical framework toward healing. Informed by the author's lived experiences as a Filipina and Chinese immigrant as well as by her professional identities as a professor, researcher, and mental health clinician, Patterns That Remain provides the foundation for timely conversations and centers the importance of healing, personal growth, and unlocking the power behind our stories"--Publisher's description.
