About this listen
Somatic Therapy Allows Us to Regain Control Over Our Emotions and Break Free From the Impact of Our Past.
When a traumatic event occurs, our body triggers its “fight or flight” response. In many scenarios, the emotional reactions of this response get trapped, disrupting the feedback loop between our mind and body, leading to an imbalance in our nervous system function. Over time this can cause chronic stress, pain, high blood pressure, and a weakened immune system. This, alongside regular triggers in our everyday life, will manifest into a disconnection between our mind and body and create a constant feeling of dissociation from our emotions, with minimal control over how we feel.
Somatic therapy combats this dissociation by targeting the root of the issue. By employing a range of exercises and tools with a body-orientated approach, we can enhance our mind-body connection and restore balance to our nervous system. Helping us break free from the cycle of reliving past events and providing us (and our bodies) with the ability to handle future experiences more effectively.
The tools throughout this workbook to aid with this process include:
Science-based information to understand what is going on inside us and why mind-body connection is so crucial
Thought-provoking journal exercises and prompts
Exercises that safely revisit our past to overcome what is buried inside of us
Grounding techniques that help us stay calm and centered in our daily lives, enabling us to turn inward when we need it the most.
Body-awareness exercises designed to enhance our connection with ourselves by making us more conscious of our physical sensations and responses.
Somatic yoga routine to achieve a desired state of mind, morning or night.
Exercises to help manage built-up tension and stress.
And many more valuable tools.
This book will give you the tools to process your past, reconnect with your body, and regain your emotional and physical well-being.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Building on the foundation laid by Moshe Feldenkrais, Thomas Hanna's groundbreaking work completely redefines the body's potential for withstanding decline. His gentle program for the mind and body proves once and for all that so many problems we accept as inevitable over time - chronic stiffness, bad back, chronic pain, fatigue, and, at times, even high blood pressure - need never occur if we maintain conscious control of nerve and muscle, replacing Sensory-Motor Amnesia with Sensory-Motor Awareness.

Emotions, affect regulation, and interpersonal social behavior are psychological processes that define how people react to events, environmental difficulties, and other people. These processes build our sense of self, help us form connections, and influence whether we feel comfortable in different situations or with different individuals. Despite the fact that these processes may be witnessed scientifically and subjectively, they constitute a complex interplay between our psychological experience and physiological control.

Rejecting our suffering is not a sustainable solution because trauma is held in the body.

A New (to me) Healing Approach
I've recently discovered the practice of somatic therapy for healing from trauma. I love that the exercises are dispersed throughout the book so you can take immediate action while listening to each section. I'm already a positive-minded, optimistic person; but learning more wys in which the mind and body are connected can only help me achieve the dreams and goals I have now that I have added this means of stress relief and trauma healing to my repertoire.

My Journey with "Becoming the Body"
In Ken Michael's "Becoming the Body," I was introduced to the world of somatic therapy, which presents a powerful approach to healing trauma, stress, and anxiety through straightforward techniques. This insightful book deepened my understanding of proactive strategies for strengthening the mind-body connection and restoring balance to the nervous system. It became a valuable resource for me as I grappled with stress and anxiety, and I appreciate Michael's emphasis on its role as a complement to therapy rather than a replacement. The practical exercises, journal sheets, and body-oriented practices, along with a downloadable yoga course, enriched my experience. I received this book as a gift, and I am profoundly grateful for it, as it has truly been a game-changer for my emotional and physical well-being through holistic body healing and self-discovery.

Strengthening the Mind-Body Connection
Becoming the Body is a wonderful audiobook that focuses on strengthening the mind-body connection through Somatic Therapy. I had never heard of somatic therapy prior to listening to this audiobook, so I learned a lot about what it is and how we can all practice it to reduce stress and help recover from traumatic experiences.
I really found chapter 7 to be extremely interesting which is about releasing through self awareness. I found it extremely interesting when we are feeling stressed or perhaps triggered about trauma that we are feeling, that it may not be trauma that we ourselves experienced, but it may be a past self that is feeling that trauma but it is resonating with us now. Very fascinating. Highly recommend!!

Somatic therapy
This audiobook is such a pleasant eye-opener. I have to admit, I really did not know much about somatic therapy, but now I am 100% in and starting to take steps to integrate some of the strategies into my life. I really appreciate the straightforward and easy to follow directions. I found the section on regaining emotional control and breaking free from the impact of past traumas to be very empowering.
