From trauma educator and somatic guide Kimberly Ann Johnson comes a
cutting-edge guide for tapping into the wisdom and resilience of
the body to rewire the nervous system, heal from trauma, and live
fully. In an increasingly polarized world where trauma is often
publicly renegotiated, our nervous systems are on high alert. From
skyrocketing rates of depression and anxiety to physical illnesses
such as autoimmune diseases and digestive disorders, many women
today find themselves living out of alignment with their bodies.
Kimberly Johnson is a somatic practitioner, birth doula, and
postpartum educator who specializes in helping women recover from
all forms of trauma. In her work, she's seen the same themes play
out time and again. In a culture that prioritizes executive
function and "mind over matter," many women are suffering from
deeply unresolved pain that causes mental and physical stagnation
and illness. In Call of the Wild, Johnson offers an eye-opening
look at this epidemic as well as an informative view of the human
nervous system and how it responds to difficult events. From the
"small t" traumas of getting ghosted, experiencing a fall-out with
a close friend, or swerving to avoid a car accident to the "capital
T" traumas of sexual assault, an upending natural disaster, or a
life-threatening illness-Johnson explains how the nervous system
both protects us from immediate harm and creates reverberations
that ripple through a lifetime. In this practical, empowering
guide, Johnson shows readers how to metabolize these nervous system
responses, allowing everyone to come home to their deepest, most
intuitive and whole selves. Following her supportive advice,
readers will learn how to move from wholeness, tapping into the
innate wisdom of their senses, soothing frayed nerves and
reconnecting with their "animal selves." While we cannot cure the
painful cultural rifts inflicting our society, there is a path
forward-through our bodies.
