A Woman's Journal on Her Spiritual Journey With Lupus





Stronger Because of It is a woman's journal on her spiritual journey with Lupus. It is a dedication to finding purpose in our suffering. When Laura was first diagnosed with Lupus, it was also the very same day that one of her patients had died from the same disease. Afraid and searching for answers, she turned to her faith. Despite dealing with the grief and loss of her former career, Laura refused to give up. She pursued her love for meditation and fitness through boxing, Qigong, Reiki, and Tai Chi. With daily practices, she has found gratitude in even the smallest moments. This is a story of a woman's spiritual journey while juggling with the very real physical struggles that come with chronic illness. She hopes that this journal can help others on their journey, whether they're struggling with chronic illness, depression, or other illnesses and diseases. Her story is about blossoming where we've been planted and seeing the beauty in our suffering.





"I don't look to suppress my emotions so that people see me as happy all the time. This illness has brought me to my knees many times and has truly humbled me. Without my chronic illness, I don't think I would be the same person I am today." - Laura Biernacki
