Press Release \u2013 Dr. Rani Samuel \u2013 In Search of Daniel \u2013 Release of New Book<\/p>\n

The journey through emotional trauma can leave anyone feeling out of control, lost and in tears. The word \u2018trauma\u2019 has its origins in the Greek language and refers to \u2018a wound or injury\u2019 caused by an external force; which can be physical or psychological. Right now across the world, trauma and emotional distress is happening to all of us \u2013 to our family, friends, colleagues and neighbours. Lockdown, isolation, anxiety, depression, violence and more impacts us on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

But what are the roots of emotional trauma? Interestingly, our entry into the world, through the womb of our mothers, is often where our traumas begin. Everything pregnant mothers experience, the baby she is carrying also experiences \u2013 both good and bad. Studies in the scientific field of epigenetics is showing that ancestral health, the amniotic environment of the womb, the circumstances of our birth and intimate relationships with our caregivers- all have significant biopsychosocial impacts on a person and can have life-long consequences.<\/p>\n

This implies that emotionally, our sense of hurt, rejection and fear often starts in the womb of our mothers. Many people are \u2018orphaned\u2019 even before they are born. The result is a life of ongoing emotional upheaval, amplified over time by personal trauma in our relationships and environments, until we reach \u2018breaking point\u2019. This takes us far away from living out a purposeful life, full of meaning and hope. The current novel explores this theme of \u2018trauma in the womb\u2019 and its unfolding inner turmoil and lingering pain. \u2018In Search of Daniel\u2019 tells the story of strapping, young Daniel who discovers a devastating family secret on his eighteenth birthday. As his life spirals out of control, he embarks on a journey of healing from the mountain slopes of Cape Town to the heart of Rwanda and the ancient cities of Israel. It is a captivating chronicle of forgiveness, healing and hope.<\/p>\n
