Autobiografie traumatu - Intimní zpověď – Levine Peter A. (2025)

The famous creator of the somatic experiencing method, Peter A. Levine – the man who changed the way psychologists, doctors, and healers understand and treat the effects of trauma and abuse – describes in this intimate memoir his own journey to healing serious childhood traumas and offers deep insights into the development of his innovative therapeutic method. In the role of a modern Chiron, the wounded healer of Greek myths, he vividly details the harsh circumstances of his childhood in contrast to specific happy memories and how somatic experiencing (SE) allowed him to clarify and untangle the consequences of these traumas. He also shares mysterious and unexpected dreams that influenced his lifelong work, including dream visits from Albert Einstein, whom he perceives as his spiritual guide and mentor. He explains how he resolved his own trauma after helping thousands of others, and how his method is based on observations of wild animals in their natural environment, neurobiological insights, and over fifty years of clinical observations. 'This book looks behind the curtain of one of the greatest leaders of our time in the fields of spirituality and psychology... Peter's work supports healing, cohesion, and a 'return home'...
