Cracked

Cracked: Shattered and broken by twenty plus years of heroin addiction author Paula Wells shares her inspiring story of triumph
and victory.
In an abusive relationship and looking to escape she had her first taste of heroin at twenty three years old. For her it was love at the first
hit and two years later she had a physical dependance to the drug. It then became a forwards/backwards movement as she struggled to
claw her way out of a dark hole. This is a story told with reflection and insight.
From Shrinking Violet to Sunflower, she transformed herself on all levels. At no point does she blame anyone else for her experiences.
Anxiety, depression, self-loathing and self-destruction were overcome and replaced with independance, freedom, happiness, stability and
being solid and grounded within herself.
She did many things to make these shifts from the inside out. She was and remains 100 percent committed to herself, to becoming the
best version of herself through workshops, study, yoga, meditation, dance, self-awareness practices and showing up every day.
Offering a lifeline to those caught in the cycles of addiction her story is worth reading.
