The way out is in. Trauma can change the way you feel about, and in, your body. During a traumatic experience, your body tries to keep you safe, courageously and imperfectly attempting to manage the unmanageable by working to separate you from danger and pain. Even if you understand why something happened, how it happened, and what to do if it happens again, it can still be difficult to move on because your body remembers - and it reminds you again and again through deeply physical symptoms. Considering this, your body may be your most valuable resource in recovery. In this workbook, renowned trauma therapist Catherine Cook-Cottone provides a step-by-step, sequential process for embodied healing that will teach you to work through your trauma, reconnect to your body, and begin thinking about what is next in your embodied path forward. Filled with over 100 embodied practices, worksheets, and meditations, you'll learn how to: - Befriend your body and build your inner resources for healing - Be with and work with your trauma memories and symptoms - Work with difficult sensations, emotions, cognitions, and reactions in partnership with your body - Reconnect to your body's wisdom - Listen to your body and heart with love and compassion - Be in relationship with your trauma True healing comes from reconnecting with your body. It is courageous work that requires commitment and practice over time to create a new way of being. By taking this journey, healing is possible.

Authors, competitive Taekwondo athletes, and teenage twins Sally and Jonah Ismael endured severe childhood psychological, emotional, and mental distress as they confronted their fears, doubts, pain, and chronic PTSD during the traumatic experience of abuse, bullying, and rejection they have encountered. The journey they have taken to unveil their identity and the true face behind many people's masks enveloped them through stereotypes, labels, and stigmas that others want them to carry. On their long journey, they encountered many painful mental battles regarding their identity; and also unlocked strategies to heal their wounds. The Night Blooming is a reflection on the journals they wrote in the seven years they were imprisoned training in their garage. They practiced alone; were rejected and abused by many. At first, the twins wallowed in their pain, as they watched their childhood slowly being obliterated. However, on their quest, they discovered a world of forces within themselves that led them down a different path and revealed their purpose in life. The Night Blooming is a journey of healing for teenage twins who dared to say no to their abuser.

"Unforeseen Patterns" by Reza AvestaThis book is about political prisoner's sustainability with a point of biological psychology views.The author's motivation for writing this book was to seek answers to two fundamental questions: First, why is the sustainability in political prisons so different for any individuals? This means why one person resists less while another one does more? And since any kind of sustainability in prison is based on their decisions, the second question is how conscious are those decisions?Regarding the first question, the emphasis is on the differences between people; Genetic differences and all social effects on individuals. And regarding the second question, we have no other choice but to enter into the controversial topic of free will. The book tries to simplify and summarize the complex behaviour of the brain, not with the intention of reductionism, but with the aim of presenting a brief, non-specialist and non-academic book. The short references that are made here to the structure and function of the brain and topics such as consciousness and free will are only from the perspective of the main goal of the book, which is to find answers for the two mentioned questions.

Anyone working in trauma-informed care knows that the body keeps the score. This is why PTSD therapy can make such a difference in not only the mental health of those suffering from PTSD and complex PTSD but also in their physical health.

For clients needing an alternative therapy for PTSD, accelerated resolution therapy, or ART, offers a promising solution. This relatively new evidence-based therapy may not have made it into every PTSD textbook yet but is well on its way to become mental health providers' first choice for trauma informed therapy because it delivers real results in such a short time: only about eight sessions. You may have already undergone basic ART training and have even read an accelerated resolution therapy book or two. So what makes this one different? Come Passion - The Soulful ART of Healing Trauma and What to Do Before You Deliver Accelerated Resolution Therapy isn't simply an accelerated resolution therapy manual and its focus isn't on the ART itself but on how to prepare your client and yourself for your sessions. It is designed to enhance your work as an ART therapist and help you refine your skills. In addition to providing you with the foundation you need, this mood disorders therapy workbook also gives you practical tools, such as scripts and checklists, that can help you streamline your sessions with your client. It is the PTSD and complex PTSD recovery workbook you will return to again and again as you become more adept at delivering this soulful art of helping your clients heal from their trauma-related wounds.

"This book is for anyone who feels that they're sleepwalking through life, looking for answers to challenging emotions and the practical tools to begin living the life they want. ... You can't quite put your finger on it, but somehow you just don't feel like you're thriving or truly participating in your own life. This is the result of a build-up of life's scrapes, papercuts, and bruises that have left you feeling simply 'not ok.' Emotional illiteracy, microaggressions, challenging familial relationships, toxic positivity, and gaslighting are some examples of what I call 'Tiny T' trauma--the impact of which often leads to problems such as high-functioning anxiety, languishing, perfectionism, comfort eating, and sleep disturbance, to name but a few"--

"Psychodrama is one of the most effective treatments of PTSD and developmental trauma that I am familiar with, and Tian Dayton has written a terrific manual to serve as our guide."- Bessel van der Kolk, MD, professor of psychiatry at Boston University School of Medicine, president of the Trauma Research Foundation, and author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Body Keeps the Score "In this treatment guide, Tian Dayton has provided us with an unparalleled approach for treating relational trauma. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is treating the pain of unhealed attachment wounds."- Peter Levine, PhD, developer of Somatic Experiencing® and best-selling author of Waking the Tiger Help clients respond to stress as the adults they are today, not the wounded children they once were. Because early attachment ruptures undermine trust and fuel disconnection, adult children of relational trauma often resist the very vehicles that would help them heal - feeling, naming, and sharing the contents of their inner world with another human being. In Treating Adult Children of Relational Trauma, world-renowned psychologist, author, and psychodramatist Dr. Tian Dayton expertly weaves together the very best of what works in psychodrama, sociometrics, and addictions treatment to create her unique, experiential approach to treating the ever-nuanced impact of early relational trauma. Grounded in the principles of interpersonal neurobiology, polyvagal theory, and somatic experiencing, this treatment guide includes 85 structured interventions that innately "warm up" the limbic system and allow space for healing in real time. Using Dr. Dayton's easy-to-follow, step-by-step approach, clinicians can help clients: · Repair, rather than reenact, painful relational trauma dynamics in their lives · Experience the safety of healing through connection, movement, and engagement with others · Feel empowered to become active shareholders in their own recovery

"So many of us feel lonely, unfulfilled, or trapped-in our roles and relationships, in cycles of self-sabotage and wrong decisions, by our toxic patterns and misguided attempts to feel happy-or to feel something. Many of us struggle to like the person we see in the mirror. According to Sara Kuburic, it doesn't have to be so difficult. Really. Instead of pushing harder or running faster, the secret lies in taking full responsibility for the choices and actions that create our reality. It's about slowing down, cutting through the clutter of demands and expectation, and finally taking ownership of this person we call our 'Self.' Now, Kuburic unpacks 'self-loss, ' giving us new vocabulary to understand our unarticulated experience, and offers tools she's used for years to help her clients recover. Self-loss becomes apparent when we feel the pain and emptiness from performing or observing life, rather than living it. Guiding us through the process of self-reflection, acceptance, and discovery, Kuburic proves that we can experience but not feel overpowered by our emotions, establish a healthy connection to our bodies, set loving boundaries to define ourselves and heal our relationships, declutter our physical and mental environments to create space for our true selves to thrive ] find meaning and purpose in a seemingly meaningless world"--

Bagsidetekst:”Jeg var glad og sorgløs. Jeg havde store drømme. Jeg var parat til at kaste mig over hele verden. Jeg var fuld af eventyrlyst, energi og begejstring for livet. Jeg var opsat på at gøre mit allerbedste indenfor alt, hvad jeg foretog mig. Jeg var ung, og jeg var lykkelig. Jeg havde relativt let ved næsten alt, hvad jeg foretog mig, så jeg satte ingen grænser for mig selv. Alting syntes muligt.”Men det fortsætter ikke. Alt forandrer sig på et øjeblik. Eventyrlysten, energien og begejstringen for livet forsvinder som dug for solen.Mit liv kollapser.
