The Confession: : A Journey to Acceptance
Douglas Wight,
Maike Mullenders
Maike was twenty-one when police broke the devastating news her father had taken his own life. Not only that, but he also left behind a confession stating he had sexually abused her. Although painfully aware of her father’s troubled life, she loved him and had no conscious memory of any abuse.
In turmoil, she spent the next twenty years trying to uncover the truth. Had he broken her trust in the worst way imaginable, was it a symptom of his mental anguish or had he constructed a story to make her hate him so her loss might be more manageable?
Through deeply personal counselling sessions, extensive research, yoga and meditation she explored the darkest reaches of her subconscious and unearthed ‘memories’ long buried yet emerged enlightened and at peace.
