About this audiobook

The innovative approach of polyvagal theory marks a new milestone in our understanding. It’s not just about how to live with the burden of your past… It’s about how to use the body to finally release past trauma and stress to move towards a sense of lasting inner peace, safety, and deep social connection. Here's a glimpse of what you'll uncover in this transformative guide: How to identify when your nervous system is dysregulated and what to do about it. Step-by-step somatic techniques that unlock emotional relief and regulation. Practical insights on how to leverage neuroception for better safety assessment. Real-life success stories: relate to women who have transcended their traumas. How to integrate polyvagal theory into your daily self-care routine. It’s likely you’ve tried many different therapies and approaches before. What makes polyvagal theory different is that it works with the body directly, tapping into the source of where trauma is stored. You may be wondering how learning about a theory could make a difference. It’s true simply learning the science of your nervous system won’t directly help you, that’s why this book focuses on giving you dozens of practical tools you can start using today. It gives you the simple practical insights you need. Then focus on showing you exactly how to start building resilience and easing suffering today.
