El Paso author Sidney A. Alvarez has written a book about his healing journey after a life-changing event. Alvarez, a former journalist, took to writing to document his journey and help others who may be experiencing similar challenges.
A Journey of Healing
Alvarez’s book, ‘Your Soulmate Expired, And That’s OK’, is part memoir and part self-help. It guides the reader through their own journey of healing, with sections for writing down thoughts and feelings and asking tough questions.
Alvarez shares how waking up alone in a hospital bed helped him to see and feel the pain he was in, and how it led to attempting suicide. He used this experience to eventually heal and now wants to help others who may be struggling.
The book is a therapeutic journey, where Alvarez shares how he walked through chaos and found the light at the end of the road. He offers a warning to look out for ‘energy vampires’, people who absorb all the energy that you have.
Alvarez reminds the reader that while life is ‘messy’, it is essential to always ‘love yourself, believe in yourself so that you can move forward’.
