Spiritual resilience is the ability to maintain a sturdy positive spirit and a clear sense of purpose and meaning even in the face of suffering. We all need spiritual resilience to thrive, but how do we strengthen resilience in today's turbulent times?

Praed's first book on MS was a best-seller at Amazon. Her third book was developed with the following goals in mind: 1) to help women prepare an escape plan that will allow them to successfully escape their abusers, and 2) to give abused women the tools to completely help them recover. A few of the book's helpful chapters include: "A List of Possible Abusive Behaviors", "Surviving Severe Abuse", "Protecting Yourself Is Part of the Healing Process", "Should I Leave or Should I Stay" and "Techniques to Speed You on the Road to Recovery". Also included is discussion of a current hot topic in the courts, "Parental Alienation Syndrome--How Your Abuser Might Try to Use It Against You". According to Praed, "No one deserves to be treated in the ways that you have been treated. You may think that you are the only one who has gone through these things. But, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. There is a way out. You will be free and this book will help you get there."
