Healing is the Answer

Navy Veteran, Sound Alchemist and Song Writer Julie Jules Smoot shares her powerful poem, Self Harm is Not the Answer as a way to help others they are not alone with their pain. Julie lives with Post Traumatic Stress and has cut herself to numb her pain. Through therapy, Julie has released the need to cut herself and now feel her emotions. Julie is healing and she hopes you find this song helpful.  You can find this poem and others in her powerful book, Songs of Survival: Healing Poetry for Warriors what is available on Amazon and at other book retailers. 
 
From the artist herself, "At one point, I believed that I was not strong enough to feel my feelings. I did not want to tell anyone what six men did to me. I did not want to talk about what my chain of command did to me. Through therapy, I have learned that what they did was not my fault. I am healing every single day. Through my writing, I hope you find healing. There is a way a out and it is going through the darkness."   Julie Jules Smoot
