Testimonials

"Sapna Ramnani’s The Returning Silence is a wonderful insight to her journey of personal discovery in searching for ways to deal with severe tinnitus - open, courageously honest, and very informative. I also have tinnitus so I related to Sapna’s experience with the conventional methods to deal with this condition and her frustrations when she found no release from the suffering. Sapna’s journey to better mental health which allowed her to control the tinnitus enlightened me to new possibilities.

 

The book is about tinnitus, however, it is also about so much more - the healing of deep emotional wounds through emotional connection and all that it can achieve. The Returning Silence is a hugely positive reading experience for anyone suffering from tinnitus and for anyone searching for better self-understanding and better mental health." - Debra Hinton

"This book is absolutely brilliant. Well written. It will take you on a journey. Someone else's journey but also a personal journey of discovery through the practices that you can do yourself." - Baptiste Bourgougnon

"I went into this not knowing exactly what to expect except a brief outline, but came out understanding so much more. What begins as an introduction to Dr. Ramnani herself, as we think we know who she is, slowly meanders through the highlights and traumas of her life, becoming an entry into her psyche, which evolves into her quest to understand herself and her tinnitus, and the realised goal of overcoming not only her trauma, but her tinnitus, an impressive feat given how difficult life has been for her at times.

As Dr. Ramnani says, this isn't meant to be a guide for those with tinnitus—the majority of cases its causes are physical—it's about her own personal journey through troubling times, and not only seeing a light where there once was none, but learning how to grasp that light and bask in its glow. From 'Introducing Myself' to 'Dialogue with Denial', there are lessons here for all of us in how we face adversity, ones we all need." - Dean Powell

"This book is an informative read, not just for those with an interest in the treatment of tinnitus, but particularly for the story of the author’s lifelong but successful battle against tremendous personal challenges." - Alan Palmer
