Poetry. Women's Studies. Body Positive. THE FEEDER by Jennifer Jackson Berry is a book of the body--an unblinking eye, a voice kicking open door after door on hushed topics of infertility, pregnancy loss, and how real bodies, in all their failings and flailings, seek and find pleasure.

Berry delivers what so many others only strive for: the devouring of what's gone bad and the opening up of each remaining body to see it glisten."--Jan Beatty

This workbook will help you to identify your triggers and the underlying emotions that are below them. As we begin to do trigger work we are also going to take a look at our emotional needs to make sure that we are doing our best to meet them. As we do healing work it is important that we take full responsibility for your internal world. Our internal world is made up of both our thoughts and our emotions/feelings. This is how we begin to learn from our triggers. Allowing our triggers to teach us is one of the greatest things we can do for ourselves.
