Kimberly Houle: I got this book in Kindle it did not have the exercise recordings to go with it, so I'm not sure it does much good without everything. It might have been a better resource if it had been provided. Overall, it is ok, book.

Amazon Customer: For those saying there is no CD - just to note that the link to the digital downloads of the meditations are after the table of contents, right before the first chapter. I downloaded them with no issues whatsoever.

Peter Levine is the creator of Somatic Experiencing, a type of somatic therapy. His knowledge and wisdom is so incredibly important for anyone dealing with trauma.

It's important to note, some of what he writes about can be triggering. Ideally, a traumatized person should be working with a therapist as well. It is easy for someone who is triggered to skip over some of his writings/explanations as they become dysregulated.

He does have some exercises at the end of chapters to help us get back into our bodies, and he is very clear that if one feels overwhelmed during the exercise, to stop and attempt to re-regulate with ways he suggests.

RightHereRightNow: I have listened to several videos of Dr.Peter Levine who I think is a blessing to humanity with his Somatic Experiencing practices. This book helped me understand my physical ailments, connect them to mental and then heal from both. I highly recommend it!
Re-reading the book so make you see things in different light each time. Each sentence is full of wisdom and there is a lot to gain here.
Listening to his calming voice on the audio almost makes me feel he’s in the room. I do these practices everyday as and when I can. The audio link is mentioned at the bottom of the table of contents- other reviewers said they couldn’t find it.
iIn addition, I’m seeing a somatic experiencing healer that has speeded up the process.

Elliott: The headline says it all. I waited a while to get this book and so realize if you are aware of this book and feel that there is something in it for you there’s really no reason to hold off purchasing it and getting into it. I won’t say I wish I had this years ago because I feel I had to do a lot of work to be ready for it. However I’d still encourage anyone who is even peeking to just get this book and start working with it as it is such a gentle, thoughtful and relatively simple approach that I imagine it can only do good. Even reading the intro can offer some healing and self acceptance so if you haven’t already just start with the free sample and see how it moves you or speaks to you.

petrova: Geen CD of audio bij de boek inbegrepen. Het boek is waardeloos zonder de audio content.

Hikingallday: I just ordered this book a little over a week ago, and when I read the reviews, I was a little worried that the book would come without a way to listen to the exercises. When I received the book, it did NOT have a CD with it, and at first I could not find the online link to the audio exercises. After a little searching, I found the link to the audio exercises at the very bottom of the book's "Contents" page (soundstrue dot com forward slash healingtrama).

As the author recommends, read the front portion of the book BEFORE you do the exercises, and seek therapy if the exercises bring up strong emotional/physical reactions.

FYI - If you look at the page opposite the the book's "Contents" page, you will see a box that says, "Medical Alert" (bottom of page). In that box it gives you a website where you can find a trauma competent therapist who understands the exercises in this book. The book inaccurately lists the website as being a dot com website. The correct website is a dot org website.

I plan to go through all 12 exercises slowly as the author recommends (Currently on exercise 3). As I start each trauma exercise I plan to continue to practice the prior...

Paulchen: Dieses kleine Büchlein ist ungeheuer tröstlich für Traumapatienten, die sich mit ihrer Problematik noch gar nicht gut auskennen, weil sie sich - vielleicht zum ersten Mal im Leben - verstanden fühlen können und sehen, dass all' das, was sie keinem erklären konnten, überhaupt nicht unbegreiflich und leider nicht mal selten ist. Eine erleichternde, hoffnungsstiftende Erfahrung zum Beginn der Heilung also, die auch für psychologische Laien gut verständlich geschrieben ist und sogar leicht anzuwendende, praktische Übungen enthält. Wer schon Erfahrung mit Yoga, Meditation, Achtsamkeit o.ä. hat, wird wohl eher eine fortgeschrittenere Anleitung suchen.
