The Somatic Toolbox: Guidebook, Exercises & Deep-Dive Workbook Activities with a 28-Day Program to Increase Self-Awareness, Heal Trauma, Release Pent-up Emotions & Stress in Only 15 Minutes a Day

Do you find yourself overwhelmed by persistent stress, trauma, or anxiety? Have you heard of the amazing mental and emotional benefits of somatic therapy but don't know how to begin? If you're seeking straightforward, actionable steps to embark on a journey of healing, you're in the right place. We're all traumatized in different ways, and some are more wounded than others. Together with daily triggers, this causes you to live totally out of touch with your body and lose control over how you feel—leading to an array of physical and emotional symptoms. While traditional trauma therapy often focuses on basic coping strategies, it frequently overlooks the potential for deeper healing. Your mind-body connection, if properly balanced, is a powerful tool to regulate your emotions, relieve stored tensions, and heal your trauma. Peter Levine, a pioneer in the field, suggests that to fully heal from trauma, one must exit it with the same feeling of fear that you had when it was formed—otherwise, that fear can't be released because you aren't conscious of it. That is why people with PTSD, anxiety, dissociative episodes, and other complex mental health issues are sometimes better served by body-based approaches. Unlike books that solely focus on physical exercises or isolated activities, our comprehensive guide integrates psychological insights with physiological techniques, ensuring a holistic healing journey. It also equips you with a simple and clear 28-day program that demands just 15 minutes a day, guiding you through easy-to-follow steps to address YOUR emotional challenges and stress.
