The Cognitive Behavioral Somatic Workbook for PTSD: Mind and Body Practices to Heal Trauma from the Inside Out - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

How can you heal trauma in both body and mind? This groundbreaking workbook blends evidence-based psychology with cutting-edge somatic practices to help you move forward.

Healing from trauma isn't just about changing how you think; it's also about changing how your body feels. The Cognitive Behavioral Somatic Therapy Workbook for PTSD combines the best of cognitive-behavioral techniques with powerful somatic (body-based) practices to help you reconnect to safety, presence, and peace from the inside out.

Grounded in the pioneering work of clinical psychologists Anna Baranowsky, PhD, and J. Eric Gentry, PhD, this practical guide shows how trauma reshapes the brain and body, and how mind-body practices can help retrain your nervous system for lasting resilience. Organized around five key dimensions--Body, Feelings, Thoughts, Actions, and Connections--this workbook moves beyond simple symptom relief to heal both body and mind. You'll learn how to calm hyperarousal, restore feelings of safety in your body, rebuild emotional flexibility, and reconnect meaningfully with others.

This step-by-step workbook will help you:

• Communicate safety to your body through evidence-based somatic tools
• Identify and challenge trauma-related thoughts that reinforce fear
• Reconnect with emotions safely and express them without overwhelm
• Rebuild relationships and reestablish trust in yourself and others
• Move beyond symptom management toward post-traumatic growth

Drawing on the latest polyvagal research and trauma science, this book helps you release your body's instinctual survival responses, rebuild self-trust, and rediscover a sense of integrity, connection, and empowerment.
