ABOUT ALEXANDRA ELLE

Alex Elle is a New York Times bestselling author and influential well-being teacher focused on helping others find their voice and create clarity in their lives and relationships. She has touched millions of people through her books, classes, popular podcasts (Hey, Girl and This Morning Walk) and her work as a speaker, Certified Breathwork coach, and Restorative Writing teacher. She has been featured on Good Morning America, On Being with Krista Tippett, and recently spoke to a sold out crowd at the Kennedy Center. The wisdom she shares through all her channels, including Instagram (1.5M), is quoted widely.

Alexandra Elle knows the ripple effects of internal pain. As a teacher whose own journey has been rooted in writing to heal, she’s looked closely at how the cycles of dysfunction, trauma, and self-hatred played out in her life, and how the hurt we carry affects us, our families, and our communities.

ABOUT HOW WE HEAL

In HOW WE HEAL Alex Elle teaches us how to rewrite our narratives, guiding us on a life-changing journey to begin again, grow, and heal not only ourselves, but the generations after us. With candor and grace, she opens up about her past, sharing the backstories of her mother and grandmother, and revealing how extremely broken she felt when she became a mother at eighteen. She writes, “After having my daughter, something clicked deep inside of me. I chose to change for the better to give my daughter the emotional stability and support that I'd never had. I wanted to be the best mother and woman I could be. Not only did I want to lead by example, but I wanted to walk in love.” Now a thirty-two-year-old mother of three daughters, Alex Elle leads us through the process of nurturing our inner child and making peace with our pasts in order to stand in our power, and empower those we love, including ourselves. As she weaves together themes like self-healing, mindfulness, inner child work, and boundary setting, she presents the reader with easy-to-follow practices that have changed her life and the lives of the thousands of people she has taught. Complementing the practices and powerful insights from Elle's own journey of self-discovery using writing to heal, are inspiring stories of healing from a range of luminous voices, including Nedra Tawwab, Morgan Harper Nichols, Dr. Thema Bryant, Barb Schmidt, and many others. Brimming with encouragement, HOW WE HEAL is a must-have companion for anyone who wants to unlock their inner wisdom, grow in confidence, and find their strength while treating themselves with softness. It is also a reminder that when we choose to heal ourselves, we actively choose to heal generations to come.
