  Healing Developmental Trauma

  An essential piece of trauma literature, this highly practical guide draws from somatic-based psychotherapy and neuroscience to offer tools for healing and moving past childhood trauma (Peter Levine, author of Waking the Tiger) Although it may seem that people suffer from an endless number of emotional problems and challenges, Laurence Heller and Aline LaPierre maintain that most of these can be traced to five biologically based organizing principles: the need for connection, attunement, trust, autonomy, and love-sexuality. They describe how early trauma impairs the capacity for connection to self and others and how the ensuing diminished aliveness is the hidden dimension that underlies most psychological and many physiological problems.Heller and LaPierre introduce the NeuroAffective Relational Model® (NARM), a method that integrates bottom-up and top-down approaches to regulate the nervous system and resolve distortions of identity such as low self-esteem, shame, and chronic self-judgment that are the outcome of developmental and relational trauma. While not ignoring a person s past, NARM emphasizes working in the present moment to focus on clients strengths, resources, and resiliency in order to integrate the experience of connection that sustains our physiology, psychology, and capacity for relationship.

  Secret Bad Girl: A Sexual Trauma Memoir and Resolution Guide , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 257min

  Secret Bad Girl is a deeply healing memoir and trauma resolution guide for women who've suffered secret rapes or sexual abuse - and want both stories and instructions for being set free. Rachael Maddox bravely shares her own story of statutory rape and recovery, inviting readers into the possibility that their current sex issues, fears, stunted confidence or self-worth troubles, private addictions or private depressions, or impossible-seeming dreams could in fact be resulting from unresolved sexual trauma. There's a myth that so many women bear the burden of in today's world. The myth is that we're bad for the violations that happen to us as well as the mess of the aftermath of those abuses. Secret Bad Girl not only dispels this myth but illuminates exactly how you can transcend it, embodying the aliveness, resilience, and vitality available to you. Secret Bad Girl is like works by Eve Ensler mixed with Peter Levine and a dash of Andrea Gibson. Stories. Science. Poetry. Most people never resolve their trauma because the fear of entering into the territory of violation is so abrasive that they freeze. Rachael Maddox understands this fear and meets her listeners in a place of compassion and grace so that they can move into their long-awaited healing. ungekürzt. Language: English.

  Life on the Ground Floor: Letters from the Edge of Emergency Medicine , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 357min

  Canada Reads 2019 Longlist.Winner of the 2017 Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction.Do no harm is our most important rule, but we break it all the time trying to do good.In this deeply personal book, winner of the 2017 Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction, humanitarian doctor and activist James Maskalyk reflects upon his extensive experience in emergency medicine. Splitting his time between a trauma centre in Toronto's inner city and the largest teaching hospital in Addis Ababa, he discovers that though the cultures, resources and medical challenges of the hospitals may differ, they are linked indelibly by the ground floor: the location of their emergency rooms. Here, on the ground floor, is where Maskalyk confronts his fears and doubts about medicine, and witnesses our mourning and laughter, tragedies and hopes, the frailty of being and the resilience of the human spirit.Yet, he is swept most intimately into this story of "human aliveness" not as a physician, but as a grandson carrying for his grandfather, now in his 90s.Masterfully written and artfully structured, Life on the Ground Floor is more than just an emergency doctor's memoir - it's a meditation on health and sickness, on when to hang on tight, and when to let go. ungekürzt.

  The Lion Tracker's Guide to Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 181min

  Somewhere deep inside, you know what your gift, purpose, and mission are. Boyd Varty, a lion tracker and life coach, reveals how the wisdom from the ancient art of tracking can teach you how to recognize these essential ingredients in a meaningful life.Know how to navigate, don’t worry about the destination, and stay alert. These are just a few of the strategies that contribute to both successful lion tracking and a life of fulfillment. When we join Boyd Varty and his two friends tracking lions, we are immersed in the South African bush, and, although we learn some of the skills required for actual tracking, the takeaways are the strategies that can be applied to our everyday lives. Trackers learn how to use all of their senses to read the environment and enter into a state of “greater aliveness.” When we learn to find and follow our inner tracks, we learn to see what is deeply important to us. In the same way the trip in the classic Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance was a vehicle to examine how to live out our values, the story of this one-day adventure - with danger and suspense along the way - uses the ancient art of tracking to convey profound lessons on how to live a purposeful, meaningful life of greater harmony. ungekürzt.

  Mindfulness: How to Cope with Hard Things: A Workbook , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 141min

  Fulfillment, achievement, vitality, creativity, wisdom, compassion, intelligence, strength: All these are inherent to the mind as the sun is inherent to the sky. Thoughts are like clouds: they come and they go, like clouds in the sky...like rainwater that runs off the surface. Designed to accompany Mindfulness: How to Cope with Hard Things, this workbook helps it to soak in. Rainwater that soaks in can feed the roots and bring life, can feed the deep water table, and make our lives juicy again. The old Sanskrit word for this juiciness is rasa. It means literally “sapfulness”. It is used in the old texts to mean the “sap of life”, the flow of the life force - of the life principle itself - that moves through our bodies, and moves through our cosmos, in the way that sap moves through a tree.It is when we touch into that sapfulness - that juiciness, that deep aliveness of things - that we feel most connected, most whole, and most alive. This is where fulfillment, delight, creativity and effortless action lie waiting for us. It is our natural state.Choose a journal you love. Find the keyboard the feels right. Let’s engage the journey together and explore that life force that flows through the space in between, that rich sweetness where the rests between the notes turn our lives into music. May the journey bring you joy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Adela Sandness. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/133336/bk_acx0_133336_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
