soul deep recovery journey. At only seventeen years old, they transfer her to an adult psychiatric unit for treatment of severe anorexia. Cassandra is an involuntary patient, and recovery is not something she wants or can even allow herself to think about. Yet, a spiritual encounter changes all of this. In just one night, she goes from having no hope\u2014to finding it. With tangible hope and helpful support, stepping beyond anorexia becomes possible. On the other side, Cassandra discovers passion, purpose, failings, heartache and delight all colour her life. Free to live in the moment, she now realises how precious this is.<\/p><p>Following <em>Cassandra\u2019s Story<\/em>, <em>The Ray Collective<\/em> offers profound insights and inspiring messages on anorexia, spirituality and recovery. Supplied is a handy resource section that explores <em>Seeking Support, Self-Help <\/em>and <em>Spiritual Keys<\/em>. Poetry, journal extracts, letters, stories from friends and a heartfelt word from Cassandra\u2019s mum further bring <em>Beautiful Light<\/em> to life.<\/p><p>As a result, <em>Beautiful Light<\/em> offers hope for people with anorexia and all who support them\u2014no matter how dark it may seem.
