What does redefining normal mean for you?
This provoking question is the core of the life-changing workbook, Ready to Redefine Normal? Inspired by the book Redefining Normal: How Two Foster Kids Beat The Odds and Discovered Healing, Happiness and Love by Justin and Alexis Black, the workbook is designed to help you heal and discover your truth.
Our childhood environments teach us certain ways the world works that influence our behavior and decision-making. When these ideas of what "normal" chip away at our wellbeing and health, our judgement can become cloudy and our happiness diminished. But, they don't have to determine the outcomes in our lives. Whether you've experienced extreme trauma or been a part of a vibrant community, this workbook challenges each individual to be intentional about their personal and professional decisions and their impact on the families, communities, and institutions they're a part of.
This workbook is broken down into six sections and is meant to be used as a tool on your journey of healing and self-discovery.
What you will learn in this process:
Who informed your definition of what is "normal," along with definitions of love, happiness, family, success and much more
Useful tools for overcoming past adversities
How to break unhealthy generational cycles to live the life you want
The questions and activities are intended to help examine how you feel about relationships, self-image, and self-esteem. You will build or strengthen your sense of control, autonomy, and excitement to establish a more nurturing pathway for yourself and the generations after you. Are you ready to redefine YOUR normal?
*Both the book Redefining Normal and the Workbook are for youth 15+ unless deemed appropriate by someone 18+.
