A guide to understanding our own trauma and finding ways to recover from it

All of us have–to a greater or lesser extent–suffered from traumas in our lives. The less we address these traumas, the more they have a habit of manifesting as difficulties in the form of broken relationships, anxieties, depression, or even physical symptoms like insomnia and digestive issues.

From Trauma to Healing is a practical guide to breaking free of these traumas and finding hope for the future. In four chapters, Causes of Trauma, Symptoms of Trauma, Relocating Trauma, and Processing Trauma, we learn what trauma is, how it can affect us for decades, and how we can liberate ourselves from it in a healthy way. Exercises and question prompts throughout the book, such as word association tests and "interviewing" the body, demonstrate strategies to recognise trauma and work through them towards healing.

Deeply practical and packed with ideas, this is a humane and wise guide to recovering from the past, and creating the happier future we deserve.

This book was very disappointing. It’s mostly theoretical- particularly the early part, and doesn’t offer much insight. It could be useful if you know nothing about trauma but it would be frustrating as a self help book.

The narrator is very stilted and reads the book as if she has no engagement in the subject, which makes it a difficult and frustrating listening experience.

Disappointing from a usually reliable source
