Recenzii
Dr. Stacey Litam's Patterns That Remain is a book filled with wisdom, cultural wealth, and insights on mental health that Asian American communities, as well as others, need at this racial moment. Eloquently employing personal vignettes and interviews with others, she shares how historical trauma and intergenerational patterns have impacted Asian American cultural scripts and scarcity mindsets. More significantly, she offers a message of hope and healing with her evidence-based practices and vivid stories. I resonated deeply with this book, especially how it informs us about how both to treasure and redeem our family histories.
In Patterns That Remain, readers interrogate their past to reconcile their present and future. Dr. Stacey Litam helps readers confront internalized ethnoracial oppression that stems from legacies of trauma and provides resources and reflections that allow us to excavate a re-embodied version of self through Asian American counterstory and mental health literacy. The remix of her personal experiences, expert testimonies, and large data set allows readers to build trust quickly and makes her content on well-being stick. As a father of multiethnic Asian children, this resource helps me embody a decolonial parenting style, invites me to confront unresolved trauma, and allows my kiddos to live out more liberated futures.
Dr. Litam is reflective, compassionate, and expert in her writing. She weaves her own experiences deftly into wider topics, connecting with the reader emotionally and intellectually. As the child of an Asian immigrant, this resonated on a deeply personal level. However, this book isn't just for 'us.' It's a comprehensive guide to a better understanding of your friends, neighbors, and community. Dr. Litam tackles difficult, often unspoken topics with care. She reaches across the page to cradle and guide the reader. An impactful, important read that's part discovery, part affirmation.
This book is long overdue, literally, as it has been much needed for many generations. The consequences of historical trauma on various communities are both widespread and deep as they impact all facets of our lives and insidiously shape how we think, feel, and act toward our loved ones. Dr. Litam brings into our consciousness the effects of historical traumas on ourselves and our families, and expertly provides some solutions for how we can break limiting and oppressive cycles - intergenerationally. This book is a gift.
As a money coach, this book is one I would recommend for my clients challenged with re-writing the narratives that have been passed onto them from generation to generation that is stopping them from receiving the abundance that they didn't know existed. As a first generation Filipina American, this is the book I wish I had to encourage me to get to therapy sooner. As a woman, this book is the intellectual and emotional representation I craved that speaks to both my mind and heart as I personally navigate my own mental health journey. I'm so glad this book exists in the world!
