Move past trauma, balance your emotions, and reconnect with your
body's innate wisdom in The Body Awareness Workbook for Trauma.
There is a piercing epidemic of trauma in the world today. Every
few days there are reports of another tragedy, of more lives lost
to gun violence, loved ones and family homes lost to floods,
hurricanes, or fires. Women have come to speak openly about the
trauma of sexual assault, and we are finally talking openly about
the trauma inflicted on people of colour, on transgender people,
and immigrants. But now that this trauma is out in the open, how do
we heal? For years, we've understood the connection between trauma
and mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety. But
somatic psychology has recently shown that our bodies hold on to
trauma, and trauma can manifest in physical symptoms, such as pain,
hormone imbalance, sexual dysfunction, and addiction. In addition,
we now know that developmental trauma-trauma that emerges when
basic childhood needs are not met-can result in profound emotional
stress and lead to serious diseases. Building on this knowledge,
this cutting-edge guide offers simple skills for connecting and
calming your body, balancing your emotions, and rewiring old
patterns of reactivity for better self-regulation. The mind-body
approach in this book is designed to guide you away from
post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma and toward
posttraumatic growth. Using these exercises, you'll learn how to
reconnect and relate to your body-and yourself as a whole-in a new
and healthy way. If you're ready to move past your trauma and
rediscover your body's innate capacity for healing, growth,
vitality, and joy, this unique guide will help light the way.
