Description: What is trauma? How does it change the way our brains work? And how can we overcome it? When something traumatic happens to us, we dissociate and our bodies shut down their normal processes. This unique comic explains the strange nature of trauma and how it confuses the brain and affects the body. With wonderful artwork, cat and mouse metaphors, essential scientific facts, and a healthy dose of wit, the narrator reveals how trauma resolution involves changing the body's physiology and describes techniques that can achieve this, including Trauma Releasing Exercises that allow the body to shake away tension, safely releasing deep muscular patterns of stress and trauma.

Review: Steve offers a guide to help us understand which can be read over and over again. All the references are listed if you want to dig deeper but Steve's approach is targeted at those of us feeling these symptoms but struggling to make sense of them. I bought this book to give to my mother who has been diagnosed with 'anxiety' but no so called expert can offer a solution that works for her. I sense that she needs to find the solution herself. Maybe this book will help.

Review: Some great bits of information here. However I was disappointed that the only recovery method explored was working with the body. Although working with the body is important, there was no mention of processing the unconscious. I also felt there was an emphasis on resilience and our natural ability to come out of trauma ourselves. The evidence used was referring to single incident trauma which the book had already identified as different to developmental trauma. Developmental trauma can not be recovered so easily, although it can with the right help.
