desertcart.com: In an Unspoken Voice: How the Body Releases Trauma and Restores Goodness: 9781556439438: Peter A. Levine, Gabor Mate: Books

Review: Author's Best Book Yet - I first studied with Peter Levine in 1983 long before his Somatic Experiencing theory had been developed, and then again in 1988 as he was first developing it. After a twenty year stretch in which my life took a diversion I have come back and studied his work again, and have became certified as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. During this time Dr. Levine's work has become exquisitely refined and the theory has become teachable. In the early days we would watch him work and could not follow the subtleties but would always be amazed as almost miraculous healings would unfold before our eyes. In his first book, "Waking the Tiger" he was able to articulate his theory of healing trauma in a way that was readable and informative. In this book he has made the work fully approachable. With examples from his own life he shows us how we can go through life-threatening experiences and not only avoid being traumatized but actually come out of such experiences a healthier human being. This is by far his best book to date and I practically demand that all of my clients read it so they can understand many of the symptoms they are experiencing. For, it turns out that trauma is the great imposter. It can look like just about any medical or psychological disorder in the diagnostic books. Many people are not even aware that they are suffering from the hidden effects of trauma until they read this book and understand the mechanisms by which long forgotten traumas have crept back into their lives and even taken them over. In my marriage counseling business I see a lot of couples who are not actually incompatible but whose nervous systems have become stuck in fight or flight as a result of trauma and who therefore end up in an escalating cycle of fighting and resentment. As we work the trauma issues these relationships begin to fall into place and support the partners instead of activating and agitating them. This is the book that puts the jigsaw pieces together and makes the whole mystery begin to make sense.
Review: Bodyworkers Must Read! - As a professional bodyworker for 15 years I deal with chronic physical (and linked emotional)pain on a daily basis. This book was excellent and extremely insightful - many thanks to the author! He provides a very clear and well-researched description of how and why trauma gets stuck in the body, and how the body provides a language to understand and resolve it. Get your mind out of the way and stop trying to figure it out, and just let your body process the energy that was built up at one point and never found full expression. I was originally looking for specific exercises and techniques to use, and while there are some general guidelines there isn't really a step-by-step how to do this. By the time I finished the book I was glad there was no step-by-step, and the information provided gives so much insight into tapping into the natural intelligence and uniqueness of each individual and their pain. I have already helped 3 clients in a significant way by watching what their body language was saying as they spoke about their pain, and then providing a safe place to explore the physical sensations happening without looking for a hidden meaning. This makes so much more sense than talk therapy. I have seen many people that are very discouraged by the amount of self-improvement work they've put into themselves, thinking that if they figure out the emotional reasons behind their pain it will go away - only it hasn't and they are left desparate for relief. While there is the mind-body physical and emotional connection, the body is the intelligent part of us that experiences everything, and the mind just interprets these experiences and gives them meaning. Peter Levine brings us back to honoring the body's intelligence over and over again. If you are a bodyworker of any kind I can't recommend this book highly enough. If you are someone in chronic pain (trauma), please buy this for your bodyworker and work through it together.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential Book In Your Healing Journey
*by A***R on January 23, 2024*

An amazing, amazing read. It paints the symptoms of trauma as normal experiences rather than “bad” or “wrong” which is healing in itself and provides a way out — or rather, through — the suffering we put ourselves through unnecessarily. Information heavy but also lots of everyday examples that are easy to understand. This is the book I never knew I needed.
