Overview

The Agreeable Child: A Yogic Journey from Tragedy to Triumph is a deeply personal memoir about healing a lifetime of silence through breath, embodiment, and self-compassion. After a traumatic head injury at age three, Bradley lost not only his speech but his sense of safety in the world. He learned early that survival meant being quiet, compliant, and agreeable. For decades, he carried that pattern into adulthood-becoming a reliable engineer, husband, and father while remaining emotionally disconnected and inwardly adrift. In midlife, personal loss and mounting depression forced a reckoning. A single therapy session-and a simple breathing exercise-opened a doorway he never knew existed. That moment led him to yoga, first practiced alone in the quiet of his living room, and later within a small, welcoming studio housed in a historic landmark. Through breathwork, movement, and yogic philosophy, he began to reconnect with his body, reclaim his voice, and rewrite the story he had lived by for over fifty years. Blending reflective storytelling with lived experience, The Agreeable Child traces a powerful transformation from trauma to presence. It explores how early wounds shape identity, how silence can masquerade as strength, and how true healing often begins not with answers-but with a single, mindful breath. This memoir is an invitation to anyone who has spent a lifetime pleasing others while neglecting themselves. It offers hope that no matter how long you have lived disconnected from your own voice, it is never too late to come home to yourself.
