Samenvatting:

"I am in love with this book...get ready for a life changing read." Dr Emma Offord"Full of soul stirring gifts for all readers." Dr Jenny TurnerThis is a book for anyone who has experienced a life altering rupture and is searching for a way to make sense of themselves and their life in the aftermath. For those asking what happens after the metaphorical climb?When the summit has been reached but the landscape of your life is now unrecognisable?Packed full of reflections, wisdom and generous insights as well as practical exercises to support your own unique climb - it's a radically honest story of the mountains we never choose to climb and what it means to find our way home to ourselves in the aftermath.Through the guiding metaphor of a mountain, Asta traces her intimate journey through breast cancer, chronic illness, ME and identity rupture - from a trauma-aware and neurodivergent perspective. Rooted in a nature-based and embodied lens, Still Living explores what healing can look like when life has been irrevocably changed and rearranged.This is not a story about being 'fixed' or restored. It is a story about the slow cultivation of a new ecosystem of self in altered ground. A remembering that we carry within us the embodied intelligence to begin again - even in the harshest terrain.Deeply compassionate, Still Living offers strength, solace and a new language for life beyond survival. An invitation to rewild the self not by returning to who we once were, but by honouring who we are still becoming.
