About this listen

Whether you are stuck in the distress of life, or appear like nothing’s wrong, you may have faced trauma, or incredible stress, or suffocating fear. Maybe you wonder whether those emotions, memories, and experiences are blocking you from being as fulfilled and happy as you could be. Maybe you’re stuck in patterns that simply no longer work for you.

What if you could change it all? What if you could feel safe and solid and secure inside your own body? What if your life could be peaceful and centered and fulfilled?

In Becoming Safely Embodied, Deidre Fay shares from her 35 years of psychotherapy and spiritual practice to provide a truly practical way to integrate modern neurobiology and ancient wisdom to finally and completely heal from emotional trauma, no matter how deep or faint, how long ago, or recent you experienced the pain.

Throughout her years as a therapist, Deirdre noticed that clients would make progress while in a therapy session and then revert to old patterns between sessions. What people need is a set of skills and practices to support ongoing healing and wholeness.

That's what this audiobook will help you with. You’ll discover:

  • What “trauma” is and why you might have had a hard time healing from this pain,
  • Why shame is an attachment wound and how to harness self-compassion to truly transform suffering
  • What to do when you feel like you’re easily “triggered” by a certain person or situation in your life so that you can stay centered and safe
  • Instantly effective methods of breath work for brain change and emotional regulation so that you can calm your mind or energize your body
  • The nine core skills that can help you to be more at home with your internal world and cultivate a body that’s a safe place for rest, reflection, and well-being
  • Simple daily practices that (like brushing your teeth) promote ongoing healing in your body, mind, and soul
  • And much, much, more

Whether you are healing from abandonment issues or from pain or from grief - or whether you are helping someone else to heal - Becoming Safely Embodied is your map and guidebook to finally becoming at home with your internal world, cultivating a body that’s a safe place for rest, reflection, and well-being, and creating the life you want to live, instead of living in the life your history catapults you into.

You may be wondering, “Is it possible for me? Can I change? Is it possible for me to shift these painful patterns into a more fulfilling life? Can I truly organize this crazy inner world”?

The simple answer is, “yes", and your journey to becoming safely embodied begins in the sections of this audiobook.

Exactly what I needed

I love this book. It gave practical strategies for all the vague ideas of how to become emotionally stable. I'm suggesting this book to anyone who strives for inner peace

Cuddle up, a safe cozy blanket book of hope!

This is a book my soul has been waiting to be written longer than I even knew! The narration is pleasant, well paced and engaging. Deirdre and Jack passionately deliver this wonderful books model and skillsets broken down into small actionable steps for all to embrace.


Longing to integrate trauma history with spirit based psychological skills, I can not wait to put these to use and finally be free of the chains of trauma that has kept me from fully being my whole self.


Thank you for the gift of your passionate body of work, Becoming Safely Embodied, I have great hope in securing my Divine self by learning and applying the skills and exercises in this encouraging book.

A Whole Lot of Healing Going On

This book has been a catapult for me, transcending me into a new phase of recovery on my journey of navigating symptoms of PTSD. I listen to a lot of audio books centered on attachment theory, dissociation and trauma and most are good information but they are just a telling of information. This book has clear exercises that helped me to use the information in a constructive way to realize immediate relief. If you are looking at this book, you most likely suffer from past trauma and know that at times it can feel like we are nowhere to be found. Lost inside a nervous system that is continually on high alert… a slave to the physical sensation of fear and panic or conversely, complete numbness. Truly this is one of the first books I feel has given me clear, useful direction about how to feel like I can live safely in my body and be present.

It’s ok

Narration is awful. Like so awful. It took me a YEAR to get through this book. It’s part of a curriculum otherwise I would have returned it. Not a fave.

I can’t even

Ugh I can’t even listen to this, the narration is fit for putting insomniacs to sleep and it shuts down my mind and I literally cannot listen to the actual context of the book. Failed three vigorous attempts to listen. I really wanted to get this information but I have to delete this without listening to it having wasted my money.
