5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a healing gift to yourself
This is truly a healing book. I wish I knew of it sooner. I think it can be useful to anyone who has had some sort of trauma in their life -big or small. You don't realize how life's events can effect you down the road. I actually was recommended this book after I started seeing someone after my mother's sudden death. But it is so much more and I find it is useful dealing with my PTSD from a prior car accident, too.What I like most about this book is how easy it is to read. The author has a way of writing that gets to the point and makes complicated issues quickly understandable. This book is a healing gift to yourself. I got the book with the CD version and I would agree with other reviews that the kindle version without the CD would not be the same. Plus the price for this kind of help is unbeatable!
5.0 out of 5 stars Works but be careful
I discovered somatic after going through some trauma and realized I needed help and not talk therapy but something more. This book comes with downloadable audio exercises and they do go deep. Just be cautious and ready for any emotions and memories to come up. They may come suddenly without warning, but do not stop until they have passed so that you can release that stored trauma.If you want to go slower and deeper than Peter and check out Irene Lyon and her Smart Body, Smart Mind online course, she is trained by Peter and other big names and she has a beautiful online course that is well worth the money because she gives you all the medical info and information and leaves out the spiritual and she really knows her stuff. Check out her YouTube and blog. I currently am in the program and its doing wonders.
5.0 out of 5 stars At last! a user-friendly manual for both therapist and patient working on trauma!
As a psychotherapist who specializes in working with individuals who have a history of trauma, I have sought for the past 20 years in books and seminars all the latest in treatment. I recently discovered Peter A. Levine's remarkable and compassionate books on the subject of trauma and its treatment; "Waking the Tiger" and "In an Unspoken Voice." Everything I had ever learned practiced, or observed in 20 years of practice came together in his work. What I like best is how Levine gets into the body and the emotions of the sufferer. His explanations are natural and flow from a profound understanding of the biology and the experience of trauma. He avoids scientific jargon and sterile, clinical terminology to prove his scholarly understanding of the subject. He defines, explains, interprets, and illustrates -- through masterful integration of science and clinical experience.How surprised I was when I discovered the small, instructive manual, with CD teaching of its exercises, "Healing Trauma: A Pioneering Program for Restoring the Wisdom of Your Body"! This small book with its very concise distillations of Levine's understanding of how trauma affects the body, together with specific healing exercises, is invaluable for patients and their therapists working together. Another Levine triumph: helpful, informative, with the same caring concern for the healing journey.
4.0 out of 5 stars Challenging Exercises That Actually Help
In my 5 years of dedication to healing through PTSD, from childhood trauma into adult independence, I have never experienced struggling harder than through Somatic Experiencing & Dr. Levine's practices here. This has been much harder than in previous times, and a much slower process. I share this for anyone who may be in self-doubt or doubt of Dr. Levine's work, to reassure you that the effort is hard but it's worth it.My biggest problem is moving from my head into my body, however, I am slowly climbing mountains- and Dr. Levine's work is unique, unlike any other approach I've experienced. It's not easy and it's not supposed to be easy. Somatic Experiencing focuses directly on the work that needs to be done. To care about your body enough to go through mundane, extremely simple exercises and be dedicated.In 3 years I had been to 13 different doctors in fields of psychology and neurology. I had only a few good experiences, and only in finding Somatic Experiencing have I discovered something radically different. It reminds me of what I learned in overcoming a visceral, biological anti-needle reaction. Your brain doesn't change until your body does.It's not perfect, it's not easy, you may have the greatest doubts and least faith in the midst of these exercises. It might feel boring and uneventful, as if you are doing nothing and it doesn't feel traumatic or even real. But that is just part of how it is, when we are numb, stuck off, unaware, or stuck on, blind. There is no "wrong" way to do these exercises. At first I could feel that I was bad at them somehow, and I had to just keep doing it poorly to get through those bad parts and get better. Doing it poorly was freeing enough that it allowed me to get better. The difficulty of these exercises helped me realize that I don't have to have high standards or be so great at achieving this healing, I can take it much slower. For much of my life, I have been able to lean on my over-active mind as a crutch, a spontaneous creator. But to really learn, I have to struggle. It has to be uncomfortable.I would recommend these exercises to anyone struggling to get out of repetitious habits, addictions, or struggling to gain autonomy & willpower.
Trauma is dangerous better Read the book and practice the exercise
If you practice what the author is asking you to it actually works

Awesome book, easy to understand!
I preferred reading the hard cover as it is more visually appealing, but it was much more expensive to purchase. I would highly recommend reading this book if you or someone you know have been through a traumatic experience. After being in a car accident with my 4 month old daughter, I found this book exceptionally helpful. It was easy to read, I gained a deeper understanding of what it was I was going through, and it gave several simple exercises to help me release the anxiety I had been having. Definitely a book to have for your self-help collection!!
