Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring trauma and its healing is a timely and necessary task, especially in light of recent global challenges. While COVID, isolation, and social unrest may not directly cause trauma, many are grappling with its effects, which depend on individual reactions rather than the events themselves. One promising therapeutic approach is EMDR, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. Coauthored by Michael Baldwin, a patient who found transformative relief through EMDR, and Dr. Deborah Korn, a therapist who elucidates its mechanisms, this work introduces EMDR to those who may benefit from it without prior knowledge. The book covers the origins and effectiveness of EMDR in treating post-traumatic stress disorder, how therapy sessions are structured, and essential questions to ask a therapist before starting. It also delves into the nature of trauma, explaining that it encompasses any overwhelming experience that triggers strong negative emotions and feelings of powerlessness. Trauma is stored in our memories and bodies, waiting to be activated, and EMDR offers a pathway to resolution. With its blend of personal narrative, expert insights, and innovative full-page photographs paired with affirmations, this book serves as an accessible and warm introduction to a complex yet vital subject.
