I illustrate the books of the Norwegian author Mai Camilla Munkejord. The books are about trauma, how experiences from our history (childhood, previous generations and previous lives) affect us and how we can heal. Themes that she writes about in a vivid and inspiring way, based on her personal story.

 

The books are a Trauma Awakening Quartet. A Journey from Burnout to Sovereignty.

 

"Let the Mask Fall" is the first book. The book is about childhood trauma and recovering from burnout.

​

The second book "Hold Me Close, Let Me Go" is about how trauma manifests itself in mirroring and triggering in relationships. Wounded inner children who need to be seen and heared.

 

The third book "The Mother Wound" is about multigenerational trauma and an inner journey of repairing wounds. The fourth and final book "That I Am - A Journey to Reclaim Sovereignty and Embrace Multidimensional Being" was launched Februery 2025. The books are not yet available in English.

I have painted the pictures on the Covers of all the four Books and in addition there is a collection of paintings in each book. ​

​

I have been a guest on the Let the Mask Fall Podcast (in Norwegian). In the episode I talk about losing a child, about burnout, my path of healing my wounds and of moving towards my inner freedom and creative power.
