Description
This book is the culmination of the author's lifelong work. Peter A. Levine clarifies the essence of trauma transformation in the body, mind, and psyche. He draws from rich experiences in clinical practice, comparative brain studies, his own research in the field of stress, and careful observation of the animal world. The book Silent Testimonies is based on the idea that trauma is neither an illness nor a disorder, but an injury caused by feelings of fear, helplessness, and loss, an injury that can be healed if we engage our innate ability to self-regulate highly aroused and emotional states. The book, which also provides a clear theoretical framework, elegantly blends the latest findings from biology, neuroscience, and body therapy to demonstrate that when we connect animal instinct and reason within ourselves, we can become more whole human beings.
