Description
An offering to be with, and to turn towards, the feelings from which we instinctively recoil
We have learned how to suppress our pain and deny its presence but when we fight against our internal turmoil, glimmers of peace are short-lived. Rejecting our suffering is not a sustainable solution because trauma is held in the body. In this book, Nityda Gessel invites readers on a journey towards lasting freedom with insights and experiential practices that marry the wisdom of Buddhist psychology, yogic teachings, and Indigenous understanding with somatic psychotherapy and neuroscience.
When we heal, our actions and attitudes are not hijacked by our nervous systems as easily. We begin to feel more comfortable in our bodies; more at peace, awake and free. With Gessel’s invitation readers will learn to look out into the world and see more than their own trauma reflected back.
