About this listen
For both clinicians and their clients, there is tremendous value in understanding the psychophysiology of trauma and knowing what to do about its manifestations.
This book illuminates that physiology, shining a bright light on the impact of trauma on the body and the phenomenon of somatic memory.
It is now thought that people who have been traumatized hold an implicit memory of traumatic events in their brains and bodies. That memory is often expressed in the symptomatology of post-traumatic stress disorder - nightmares, flashbacks, startle responses, and dissociative behaviors. In essence, the body of the traumatized individual refuses to be ignored.
While reducing the chasm between scientific theory and clinical practice and bridging the gap between talk therapy and body therapy, Rothschild presents principles and non-touch techniques for giving the body its due. With an eye to its relevance for clinicians, she consolidates current knowledge about the psychobiology of the stress response both in normally challenging situations and during extreme and prolonged trauma.

A great listen for a busy Counsellor
It complements other trauma therapists work & is good to use the ongoing experience of Charlie & his trauma background & road to recovery.
I’d only change 1 element whilst reading, when Bebeette speaks about the therapist & clients interviews. It would flow better is the main reader be the therapist & there was another person reading the client’s responses.

The power of your body
This is a great book. Since reading it I have more appreciation, knowledge and ability to tune into my own and clients bodies to find previously hidden feelings. It is a brilliant way to find the unconscious blocks to constantly repeated behaviours. Enjoy and grow.

Clear, simple and incredibly valuable
I found this book incredible valuable. It was recommended by a trauma councillor who told me that the author was doing some great work in the area of trauma recovery.
The thing that struck me most about the book is how 'light' the writing style it is. I expected something 'heavier' and kept waiting for the 'heaviness'.
In the end, no heaviness was needed.
This is a valuable, well written book by someone who seems like an incredibly effective psychologist.

trigger warning central- except there are none
was told to read this as a less triggering alternative to the body keeps score. while the author may be less problematic, there was huge triggers throughout the book. horrible
