Story
Hina, the Maori moon goddess, has 30 different faces to help illuminate life’s lessons—a different face and a different energy for each day of the month. And with her changing light, new insights are revealed. This book gives us the chance to connect to the ancient wisdom of the old people, who reach forward into our lives, with each of the moon’s names as their offerings. Their reminders are a source of strength in our strange modern world, where we have been stripped of much of the connection and relationships we need for our wellbeing through successive lockdowns.

Story
Evan Stark, founder of one of America's first battered women's shelters, shows how "domestic violence" is neither primarily domestic nor necessarily violent, but a pattern of controlling behaviors more akin to terrorism and hostage-taking. Drawing on court records, interviews, and FBI statistics, Stark details coercive strategies that men use to deny women their very personhood, from "beeper games" to food logs to micromanaging dress, speech, sexual activity, and work.

Story
An essential work that centers colonial and historical trauma in a framework for healing, Decolonizing Therapy illuminates that all therapy is—and always has been—inherently political. To better understand the mental health oppression and institutional violence that exists today, we must become familiar with the root of disembodiment from our histories, homelands, and healing practices. Only then will listeners see how colonial, historical, and intergenerational legacies have always played a role in the treatment of mental health.

Why does it feel so natural to be compassionate and kind to those we care about - yet so hard to treat ourselves the same way? "Our culture teaches us to use self-criticism for motivation and to build self-esteem by constantly measuring ourselves against everyone else," says Dr. Kristin Neff. "We need to re-learn the essential skill of being genuinely nurturing and supportive toward ourselves."

Everyone needs to love and be loved - even men. But to know love, men must be able to look at the ways that patriarchal culture keeps them from knowing themselves, from being in touch with their feelings, from loving. In The Will to Change, bell hooks gets to the heart of the matter and shows men how to express the emotions that are a fundamental part of who they are - whatever their age, marital status, ethnicity, or sexual orientation.

Trauma and Recovery is revered as the seminal text on understanding trauma survivors. By placing individual experience in a broader political frame, Harvard psychiatrist Judith Herman argues that psychological trauma is inseparable from its social and political context. Drawing on her own research on incest, as well as a vast literature on combat veterans and victims of political terror, she shows surprising parallels between private horrors like child abuse and public horrors like war.

One of the biggest myths that plagues the business world today is that our ability to network depends on having the “gift-of-gab”. You don’t have to be outgoing to be successful at networking. You don’t have to become a relentless self-promoter. In fact, you don’t have to act like an extrovert at all. Matthew Pollard, an introvert himself, draws on over a decade of research and real-world examples to provide an actionable blueprint for introverted networking.

Publisher's Summary
Mataio (Matt) Faafetai Malietoa Brown offers the men in his barbershop a haircut with a difference: a safe space to be seen and heard without judgement.
As the creator of My Fathers Barbers, Matt has inspired a new generation of New Zealand men to break free from the cycle of abuse - and those men have in turn inspired Matt and his wife, Sarah, to create the global anti-violence movement She Is Not Your Rehab.
In this book, Matt shares his own story and those of his clients: how they survived family violence and abuse, and how they were able to find healing and turn their lives around. He introduces the people and concepts that have helped him heal and gives listeners the tools they need to begin their own journeys.
She is Not Your Rehab demonstrates the power of vulnerability and honesty in addressing pain and shame, and shows how anyone can empower themselves by taking responsibility for their own healing.
The information contained in this book is of a general nature only and not a substitute for professional medical advice. If you wish to make any use of information in this book relating to your health, you should first consider its appropriateness to your situation and obtain advice from a medical professional.

If you change the “she is not …” to “ he is not … “ I think every couple should read this before they enter a relationship and certainly before marriage or to repair a marriage . While written for men , women can also learn a lot as it works both ways .. thanks for the story and the great narration Matt.

Thank you soo much for soo gently but impact fully sharing your story, your words have imprinted on me deeper than any korero I have sat or read through 💚
My story is not a story of domestic violence but is of a deep feeling of abandonment & rejection, my husband grew up in a alcohol, drug, domestic violence, poverty, lack of environment.
A reminder of the mahi I have done and the journey my husband is coming through, your courageous share means I understand him soo much more now, your sharing helped fill in the blanks my husband hasn't yet been able to share in detail that I soo desperately wanted to understand, I am genuinely grateful, your book is giving him hope, so again a heart felt thank you, arohatino nui 💚

Just amazing! it was that good, that I'm speechless!
But I will say this... being a victim/survivor of childhood FDV & SA myself, then experiencing DV within my own marriage... and to go on and become a DV specialist counsellor working specifically with indigenous women - This book offers so many amazing pearls of wisdom, gems of knowledge and an abundance of revalationary wealth for my work and the sisters I work with!
Thank you Matt Brown, for taking your journey and using it for the betterment of others! There is so much that we women can learn in this space about the sufferings and compassion of, and for our men, and how to support that healing journey without destroying ourselves in the process!
Arohanui to you and your whanau! You are amazing Matt, and the work you do is such a breakthrough, and so commendable!!!
God's Blessing be upon you and your labour!!!
