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.

  • Waterstones The Handbook of Trauma-Transformative Practice

    Price: £40.00

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: The definitive Handbook of Trauma-Transformative Practice brings together the work of leading international trauma experts to provide a detailed overview of trauma-informed practice and intervention: its history, the latest frameworks for practice and an inspiring vision for future trauma-transformative practice. The Handbook is interdisciplinary, incorporating trauma research, interpersonal neuroscience, the historical and continuing experiences of victims and survivors, and insights from practitioners. It addresses a range of current issues spanning polyvagal theory, the social brain, oxytocin and the healing power of love, and the neuropsychological roots of shame. It also considers trauma through the lens of communities, with chapters on healing inter/transgenerational trauma and building communities' capacity to end interpersonal violence. Furthermore the Handbook makes the case for a new way of thinking about trauma - trauma transformative practice. One which is founded on the principle of working with the whole person and as part of a network of relationships, rather than focusing on symptoms to improve practice, healing and recovery.

  • Waterstones 8 Keys to Safe Trauma Recovery Workbook

    Price: £20.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: Drawing from neuroscience and psychotherapy with empowering strategies to take charge of healing from trauma, this workbook follows the theme of each of the 8 keys in 8 Keys to Safe Trauma Recovery. The two books complement each other but it is not necessary to have read the original to benefit from this workbook, which presents practical exercises and activities integral to safe trauma recovery, and is designed to support readers' control of their mind, body and life in the aftermath of trauma. One thing is for sure: there is no one-size-fits-all method for healing trauma. This workbook will help readers identify, assess and celebrate the resources they already have and add more resources to their toolbox. Most importantly, the authors do not subscribe to the old motto 'no pain, no gain," fostering instead the concept that healing from trauma should not be traumatic.
