Overview

""A riveting and intimate tale of a woman's journey in search of a home, in her body, in her spirit and in the land. I couldn't put it down..."" Tsultrim Allione, Author, Wisdom Rising: Journey into the Mandala of the Sacred Feminine As the 20th century careened towards the finish line, author Victress Hitchcock moved with her husband from their familiar urban world to a 160-acre historic ranch in a remote valley of the Colorado Rockies. Within months, their lives unraveled, and out of the wreckage a path emerged to a radically new way to be in the world. Guided by a rich concoction of Buddhist insight and horse sense, the unlikely support of a meditation group in a nearby Federal prison, and the friendship of a woman born on the ranch in the 1930's, Victress began a journey that shattered old defenses and loosened the grip of the lifelong fears that bound her. A Tree with My Name on It: Finding a Way Home is not a handbook on healing trauma. It is a living, breathing, messy story of one woman trying her hardest to free her wounded heart and uncover her true self. It is a story, filled with joy and sorrow, unexpected wisdom, and humor that will resonate with anyone who has reached that moment in their lives when they are ready to tear off the bandage, and take a deep look at the old wounds, assumptions and fears that have held them hostage for too long. ""A beautiful poem of a memoir about what it means to be an American woman, an engaged Buddhist, and a fully alive, open-hearted human being."" Brad Wetzler, Author, Into the Soul of the World, My Journey to Healing
