Michael Patrick

HEALING CONTEMPLATIONS of TRUST: Where Love Feels Safe (Safe Haven Calm Collection)


80 gentle reflections with somatic practices for nervous-system calm and safe love.


A tender, trauma-aware companion of 80 poetic reflections with somatic "Softening Practices" and "Gentle Reminders" that teach the body to feel safe, breathe, and receive love again.


What if healing didn't rush you?

HEALING CONTEMPLATIONS of TRUST is a soothing, trauma-aware guide for anxious hearts, highly sensitive people (HSP), and anyone learning nervous-system safety after seasons of bracing. In calm, lyrical language, Michael Patrick offers 80 short reflections-each paired with a Softening Practice and a Gentle Reminder-to help you unwind vigilance, regulate, and rest inside love's presence.

You'll move through five gentle arcs:
- Foundations of Safety (1-20): breath, ground, rest, small openings.
- Gentle Awareness & Self-Kindness (21-40): warm seeing without shame.
- Strength with Soft Edges (41-60): boundaries that breathe, resilience through gentleness, balanced giving and receiving.
- Safe Connection & Repair (61-75): calm communication, repair, belonging, integrity.
- Homecoming to Safe Love (76-80 + Closing): receiving help, everyday kindness, arrival in safe love, and closing blessing.

Read one page in the morning, one at night, or during difficult moments. The entries are brief, sensory, and kind-perfect for therapy companions, caregivers, and quiet souls who need language that regulates instead of analyzes.

If you've lived with anxiety, depression, trauma, religious injury, or chronic hypervigilance, these pages will remind your body-slowly and safely-that you are Safe, Loved, Whole, and Home.

Perfect for: HSPs, trauma-aware healing, nervous-system regulation, somatic self-care, mindfulness, meditation, therapy offices, and giftable calm.
