Somatic Trauma Healing: The At-Home DIY Crash Course in Experiencing True Body Awareness Through Somatic Secrets Anyone Can Do & Insider Techniques Your ... (Sound Healing and Somatic Mindfulness) Kindle Edition

4.3 out of 5 stars 194 ratings

Always wanted to know how to help your body, mind, & spirit with simple somatic techniques but don’t know where to start? Keep reading.

Have you suffered trauma in the past? Have you been wanting to relieve unusual symptoms but can’t seem to get to the bottom of it? Stored trauma can often lead to physical pain and the psychological anguish that comes along with it. Trauma can be defined as anything that results in us being stuck in a physical, emotional, or behavioral pattern.

Want to say goodbye to all of the overwhelming & complex info out there & discover what easily works for you? You see, using somatic healing to your benefit doesn't have to be difficult, even if you feel like you've already tried everything. You don’t need to spend thousands on therapy sessions either.

In fact, it's easier than you think.

Cross your hands over your chest, so you are making a butterfly shape with your fingers pointing up. Then, link your two thumbs together. Use your hands to tap alternately on your chest's left and right sides. This forms a connection between the left and right sides of your brain. Take note of your surroundings and anything going on. This should help calm you, give you a feeling of peace, & help you process whatever current issue causing you stress might be.

A study in 2020 focused on how social pain, i.e., isolating yourself or negative experiences of interaction, can result in physical pain. Something like trauma, often seen as a mental aspect, can manifest itself in physical reactions such as headaches, muscle tension, fatigue, & stomach trouble.

You’ll discover:

  • What must be cleared within you to avert chronic illness
  • The real reason you may be suffering from auto-immune disorders
  • Why your posture, facial expressions, & body language may be in rapid decline
  • The cause of digestive issues, hormonal problems, & sexual dysfunction you won’t believe
  • An arsenal of powerful somatic hacks to unleash easily at home
  • The attention diversion trick to calm the crashing waves of past trauma
  • The “horn” trick to easily bring your mind & body into harmony
  • The amazingly easy way to positively impact your blood pressure, heart rate & arteries
  • The mood & sleep enhancer you can do from literally anywhere
  • The forgotten element that could be causing your fear of relationships & sense of shame
  • The secret to evaporate your fight, flight, freeze, or fawn responses
  • The body-to-brain method for guru-level calmness
  • How an item from your freezer can snap you out of fight or flight
  • Which attachment trauma style you could be exhibiting that is wreaking havoc in your relationships
  • The real reason parts of your body have become shuddery & jerky
  • The natural, nervous system recalibration way out of pain
  • How moving your eyes can reprogram old trauma into positivity
  • The amazingly effective energy-shaking techniques to open chakras & release baggage
  • The benefits to how an artistic flare could connect to your subconscious
  • Why talk therapy may not be getting to the true crux of your trauma
  • The tell-tale signs that your somatic practice is paying off
  • A done-for-you Somatic Daily Ritual for empowered healing
  • A treasure-trove of *bonuses*, including a companion video course with over 4.5 hours of empowering content, energy-tapping videos, powerful guided meditations, journals, & more.

& so much more.

Imagine how you'll feel once you're able to easily use the magic of somatic therapy to reach your full potential. How will your body, mind, & soul feel once you release what no longer serves you & step into your true self?


So, if you have a burning desire to easily use somatic techniques to your benefit, then scroll up & click "Add to Cart."

Disappointed- limited info, poor design & no illustrations of practices
This book was difficult to read because it wasn't printed with proper margins. The text is almost touching the inner spine. I found myself constantly pushing the book flatter to try to read the words properly. It also appears to be self-published. There were several grammar errors and there is no author info anywhere in the book-- weird. I found it kind of choppy to read and many chapters barely brushed the surface of a topic. The somatic exercises, Qi Gong, and EFT information given did not have any illustrations of proper body form, so that made it kind of useless if you didn't already know those things. I am familiar with EFT, so I knew the 12 points on the body. I would not attempt yoga poses, Qi Gong or anything else without knowing the proper position to hold the body in.

    Many people experience trauma, but some experience much more than others for various reasons. If you're someone who's seeking guidance and answers for releasing old wounds, this is your sign to get the book. For me, trauma was my birth right. What a gift, huh? Sometimes, the intergenerational traumas are so much that you feel the effects in the womb. Your body will keep score of your moms trauma, and her moms trauma, and so on. Through decades of trying to find release, nothing helped... until I learned about somatic experiencing which encapsulates numerous ways you can help to release pain from your body.

    In another book that I finished recently, the biggest thing I remember was connected to somatic healing. It stated that while observing animals in the wild, they noticed when an animal escaped a predator, it would find a place alone where it was safe and it would vigorously shake its body to RELEASE what it had just been through. Shortly after I read that, I saw a video pop up on my FYP on TT and it was a video of someone moving her body in any way her body wanted to RELEASE. I had nothing to lose so I gave it a go myself. It's safe to say I wish I'd known this long ago.

    That was the day my life changed. It was the day I realized that my inner healing could only come from within. This book aided in teaching me more about the basics to somatic healing modalities so I could dig further in. Something else that's really interesting to me is qigong, which the book will touch on. I also like the eft tapping and the breathing exercises. All of those modalities are somatic based and they are POWERFUL. Like, here's a quick example: did you know that you can actually work on simple things that help reset your nervous system and kick it out of fight or flight? Birds singing and chirping help your nervous system. Breath work helps your nervous system. There are si ple tasks you can do to tell your brain YOU ARE SAFE NOW!

    There are many ways your body and nervous system can work together to repair the inner damage without using methods that reintroduce you to all of the specifics, like talk therapy for an example. You don't have to relive it here, you can simply allow your body to release as it needs without forcing it to go back there.

    In addition, I seeked out help of a so called "somatic experiencing practioner," and just as I'd suspected, it caused far more harm than good. Through my many attempts with therapists over the years, I've come to realize they seem to be very similar. They seem to have a lot of their own issues and believe it makes them an expert for others. What they often fail to do is to fully heal themselves before taking on the role of helping others which can ultimately be very harmful. Finding this book was my saving grace and helped me to move past the harm the practioner was causing. Those are my thoughts, of course, you may have your own.

    If you've tried healing through medications and therapists and still landed here, it's time to find your healing within. Give somatics a try. What do you have to lose?

    To close, if you're not ready to be completely authentic in your space of healing then I'd advise you circle back around when you know you can perform the healing that must be done. You're going to have to dig deeper than you ever have before. You've got this!

    I've read a lot of books that cover trauma. I am on a mission to heal the lifelong wounds growing up with parents who are both mentally ill and very abusive.. Most of my life has been one trauma overlapping with another, without adequate time to heal. I can tell you with certainty, at least to date, that this is by FAR the best book I've encountered that deals with trauma. The author has a way...of breaking everything down in easily understood language and concepts.. His descriptions of the exercises could use a bit of help, but that's so minor its probably not worth it to even mention. It's difficult to explain (in only writing) to someone how to bend and move and contort your body into yoga poses, and if I find that challenging, I am certain the author understands that ~the struggle is real~! I easily read this before bed in two nights. I will save the exercises for tomorrow night, and I'm confident that there will be massive progress achieved after I implement some of the tools he provides. I don't want to give anything away.. but I'll just tell you this: the seemingly wonky things he explains to you may seem...different..maybe far-fetched, even. But I have experienced first hand the LEAP of progress that (using one of the methods he describes and recommends with this book) can occur in your life, if you just do the work. Nothing great ever came without stepping outside of my comfort zone, so I might wager believe the same is true with you. It may seem strange, but I encourage you to try the methods anyway. I sure am! And if we look totally weird doing it... then hey, at least there's two of us doing it so we will both have comfort in THAT! :) Thanks for taking the time to read this. See you on the journey of discovery towards greatness!

    As a holistic health practitioner and life coach i’ve used and recommended this book to so many clients and friends trying to maintain their new normal on the other side of ptsd and self inflicted trauma. We never truly realize how much trauma we’ve endured and accumulated or how it shapes who we’ve become until we begin to intentionally heal ourselves. This book will teach you how to put a name to the overwhelming experiences and feelings you know all too well but can’t verbalize, help you to understand in a way that will educate and empower you to take healing into your own hands and leave you with tools you can use for the rest of your life. There is so much realistic practicality in the exercises that you can begin to use immediately. This is what authentic self help should look like both education and action for sustainable healing.

    I had the benefits of attending somatic therapy over the course of two years and it has been the only kind of therapy that has ever helped me in the long run. It's easy when you have someone else to instruct you and found myself at a loss when recently relapsed after Christmas (triggered) and without a therapist to turn to. Finding this book has been the greatest blessing (or it found me) and I'm eternally grateful.
