Always With Me (Paperback)

Always With Me guides those who have lost a loved one how to discover happiness once again.

Losing a loved one to death, especially after a long-term relationship, can be exceedingly painful. The intense emotions can feel overwhelming and even paralyzing at times. The joy one once felt seems to be gone and impossible to recover. The days are dark, and the nights are even darker. Always With Me works to show those who have lost a loved one that there is a light shining at the end of pain.

In Always with Me, Michelle A. Smith, yoga therapist and energy worker, shows those who have lost a loved one how to journey back to happiness and connection once again. Using her years of training and experience in the field of integrative medicine, Michelle shows readers how to:

Use the various tools of integrative medicine to know that they are not alone

Use physical postures, breath work, and meditation practices to find happiness after loss

Embrace the power of Reiki or physical touch to feel more connected to everyone

Immerse themselves in the healing sounds and vibrations of the Tibetan singing bowls to shift into a new space of happiness and peace

Find peace within what is going on around them

Michelle A. Smith began her career as a yoga teacher at Melt Hot Yoga and went on to complete her Master of Science in Yoga Therapy at Maryland University of Integrative Health. In her last few months of her master’s program, the health system where Michelle worked announced that they would begin creating an Integrative Medicine program. Michelle reached out to the attending physician tasked with its creation and they began collaborating to create what is today a fully operational integrative medicine program. The modalities of yoga therapy, Reiki, and singing bowls have had a profound effect on Michelle in terms of healing from the loss of her father and the loss of hundreds of patients who became friends and surrendered to death through the disease of cancer. Additionally, the modalities helped Michelle find peace as she was simultaneously dealing with her own cervical cancer scare, a Crohn’s disease diagnosis, and a fiancé who relapsed into drug abuse and infidelity. She currently resides in Shamokin Dam, Pennsylvania.
