Product Description
Researchers have shown that survivors of accidents, disaster, and childhood trauma often endure lifelong symptoms ranging from anxiety and depression to unexplained physical pain, fatigue, illness, and harmful "acting out" behaviors reflecting these painful events. Today, millions in both the bodywork and the psychotherapeutic fields are turning to Peter A. Levine's breakthrough Somatic Experiencing(tm) methods to effectively overcome these challenges. Now available in paperback for the first time, Healing Trauma offers readers the personal how-to guide for using the theory Dr. Levine first introduced in his highly acclaimed work Waking the Tiger (North Atlantic Books, 1997), including: * How to develop body awareness to "re-negotiate" and heal traumas--rather than relive them * Emergency "first-aid" measures for emotional distress * A 60-minute CD of guided Somatic Experiencing techniques "Trauma is a fact of life," teaches Peter Levine, "but it doesn't have to be a life sentence." Now, with one fully integrated self-healing tool, he shares his essential methods to address unexplained symptoms of trauma at their source--the body--to return us to the natural state we are meant to live in.
Book Description
Are you experiencing physical or emotional symptoms that no one is able to explain? If so, you may be suffering a traumatic reaction to a past event, teaches Dr. Peter A. Levine. On Healing Trauma, this respected therapist and teacher brings you face to face with an effective new treatment not a talking cure, but a deep physiological process for releasing your past traumas. Medical researchers have known for decades that survivors of accidents, disasters, and childhood trauma often endure lifelong symptoms ranging from anxiety and depression to unexplained physical pain. As a young stress researcher at UCBerkeley, Dr. Levine made a remarkable discovery: that all animals, including humans, are born with a natural ability to rebound from these distressing situations. On Healing Trauma, you will learn Dr. Levines four-phase method of somatic healing. You will learn how and where you are storing unresolved distress, how to become more aware of your bodys physiological responses to danger, and specific methods to free yourself from trauma. Now you can learn to address unexplained symptoms at their source your body and return to the natural state you were meant to live in, with Healing Trauma.

 Best investment in an audio program I have ever made April 11, 2008

I had the fortune to train with Peter Levine last month. I am a psychologist and Levine's training was the best I have ever attended. I have found his work to be quite powerful. The audio program has really helped me to understand how he works. The exercises and suggestions as well as case examples are all helpful.

An Excellent Resource for All January 29, 2008

As a psychotherapist who has received extensive training in Peter Levine's technique of Somatic Experiencing, I find this book to be a helpful resource for my clients who are working through past trauma. The exercises are simple yet powerful. The text contains a lucid and clear explanation of how the nervous system can store undischarged activation from past events, and the process required to release this activation. The result is a letting go of living in the past and the tremendous freedom of living in the present. I recommend this book very highly to all who are interested in exploring how to heal trauma.

I was introduced to the work of Peter Levine several years ago with his book "Waking the Tiger" so was very interested to see his most recent work. After reading it and listening to the CD I have been pleasantly surprised by its impact. As a psychologist treating people who have been traumatised I find the work challenging and sometimes difficult due to vicarious traumatisation. His book and CD will not only be a useful resource for my clients but will assist me to stay healthy while I help others. Highly recommended.
Good starting point but the techniques are not useful August 19, 2007

You start this book thinking that this is the reason why I'm suffering but the techniques he created don't seem to work at all. They look artificial and you get an instinctive feeling that they're not gonna work, and for me they really don't seem to have an effect. I'd suggest you go to a Rosen Method practioner. This method has scientific evidence of how it works and seems to cure everyone's stuck feelings who has tried it.
