(August 7) Irving, TX -Latifah Hameen has published her second book, Suffering In
Healing: Creating A New Cycle of Behavior. In her first book, Suffering In Silence, she
discussed her abusive relationships for 20 years. Featured in the second book are
explanations of her role in the reoccurring cycles of abuse in her past relationships.
She explains the reoccurring cycles as being similar to pulling up weeds without
extracting them from the root, which was the cause of the problem, so they kept
growing back. It wasn't until she finally reached deep within and pulled the root of the
problem out once and for all, that she was able to be renewed with a much brighter
view. She also demonstrates how she is rebuilding her life.
Ms. Hameen has started an agency, Healthy Positive Choices (HPC). It is used as a
preventive tool in educating teens and young adults on the growing problem of teen
relationship abuse. HPC provides workshops, lectures and seminars to help teens
become aware of the signs of relationship abuse. This knowledge empowers and helps
them to understand that abuse is not love, but destructive to the total being. Her
passion is to educate and help prevent abuse in any form. This is her contribution
toward an effort to a better society.
Ms. Hameen is originally from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She obtained her Associates of
Arts Degree at Milwaukee Area Technical College, Bachelors of Science Degree at
University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee and Masters of Arts Degree at Amber University in
Garland, Texas. She is a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) and Licensed Massage
Therapist Instructor (LMTI). She has been an educator for 18 years. She is an
entrepreneur and currently resides in Irving, Texas.
