Download or read book The Body Awareness Workbook for Trauma written by Julie Brown Yau and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2019-09-01 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Move past trauma, balance your emotions, and reconnect with your body’s innate wisdom in The Body Awareness Workbook for Trauma. There is a piercing epidemic of trauma in the world today. Every few days there are reports of another tragedy, of more lives lost to gun violence, loved ones and family homes lost to floods, hurricanes, or fires. Women have come to speak openly about the trauma of sexual assault, and we are finally talking openly about the trauma inflicted on people of color, on transgender people, and immigrants. But now that this trauma is out in the open, how do we heal? For years, we’ve understood the connection between trauma and mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety. But somatic psychology has recently shown that our bodies hold on to trauma, and trauma can manifest in physical symptoms, such as pain, hormone imbalance, sexual dysfunction, and addiction. In addition, we now know that developmental trauma—trauma that emerges when basic childhood needs are not met—can result in profound emotional stress and lead to serious diseases. Building on this knowledge, this cutting-edge guide offers simple skills for connecting and calming your body, balancing your emotions, and rewiring old patterns of reactivity for better self-regulation. The mind-body approach in this book is designed to guide you away from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and trauma and toward posttraumatic growth. Using these exercises, you’ll learn how to reconnect and relate to your body—and yourself as a whole—in a new and healthy way. If you’re ready to move past your trauma and rediscover your body’s innate capacity for healing, growth, vitality, and joy, this unique guide will help light the way.

She has failed to give him a son and her sharp intelligence and audacious will alienate his old friends and the noble families of England.

Download or read book Balanced Bodies written by Alexandra Asirvadam and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays everyone appears to be stressed - at home and at work. Families, friends, coworkers, bosses, health, and finances often seem to add stress to our lives that stops us from enjoying what we have. Stress affects not only our emotions and thought processes, but also our physical health and general well-being. Depression and anxiety are on the rise and half of all Americans are projected to face mental challenges at some point in their lives. For many decades, medication and psychotherapy have been the way to go to treat psychological issues. If we look deeper we will see that we are treating symptoms rather than the cause of the problem, which seems to be the norm in Western medicine. An increasing number of studies and health care providers point out the importance of nutrition and exercise, not only for our physical but also for our mental health. There is a strong body-brain connection, and if we do not feed our bodies well, we also starve our brains, leading to mood disorders, dysfunctional thought patterns, and cognitive impairment. If we do not take care of our physical health, our mental health is going to suffer just the same. This book offers an overview of how unhealthy diet, lack of self-care, toxic relationships, chronic stress, negative thought processes, and a lack of spirituality affect us physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually and how to achieve more health and happiness by establishing balance in our lives. The goal of this book is to help readers change their life by making happiness a choice and learning how to make healthy yet simple food selections, improve self-care, deal with stress, control their thoughts and feelings, and simply enjoy their life.

Download or read book The Happiness Diet written by Tyler G. Graham and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2012-12-11 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to fix the Modern American Diet and reclaim our minds and waistlines “An insightful, eye opening adventure into diet and nutrition. Concise and witty, this book kept me engaged from cover to cover. A must-have for anyone serious about getting happy and healthy naturally.”—Andrew Morton, MD, Board-certified Family Physician; Former Medical Corps, US Navy and Army Infantry Medic, Desert Storm For the first time in history, too much food is making us sick. The Modern American Diet (MAD) is expanding our waistlines while starving and shrinking our brains. Rates of obesity and depression have recently doubled, and though these epidemics are closely linked, few experts are connecting the dots for the average American. Using data from the rapidly changing fields of neuroscience and nutrition, The Happiness Diet shows that over the past several generations, small, seemingly insignificant changes to our diet have stripped it of nutrients—like magnesium, vitamin B12, iron, and vitamin D, as well as some very special fats—that are essential for happy, well-balanced brains. These shifts also explain the overabundance of mood-destroying foods in the average American’s diet and why they predispose most of us to excessive weight gain. After a clear explanation of how we’ve all been led so far astray, The Happiness Diet empowers the reader to steer clear of this MAD way of life with simple, straightforward solutions, including: • A list of foods to swear off • Shopping tips and kitchen organization tricks • A compact healthy cookbook full of brain-building recipes • Practical advice, meal plans, and more! Graham and Ramsey guide you through these steps and then remake your diet by doubling down on feel-good foods—even the all-American burger. Praise for The Happiness Diet “Finally, a rock-solid, reliable, informative, and entertaining book on how to eat your way to health and happiness. Run—don’t walk—to read and adopt The Happiness Diet. This is the only diet book I’ve encountered that I can actually recommend to patients without reservation.”—Bonnie Maslin, PhD, Psychologist and author of Picking Your Battles “A lively, thorough, and iron-clad case for real food. You will never eat an egg-white omelet or soy protein shake again.”—Nina Planck, author of Real Food and Real Food for Mother and Baby “The book includes food lists, shopping tips, brain-building recipes, smart slimming strategies, and other useful tools to lose weight and keep the blues at bay.”—AM New York
