Peter Levine’s Autobiography of Trauma: A Healing Journey
6 CE Credits. Peter Levine says: “Trauma is hell on earth. Trauma resolved is a gift from the gods.” Sometimes, resolving trauma and reclaiming our lost innocence may feel beyond our grasp. In an intimate conversation with Peter Levine, renowned developer of Somatic Experiencing and bestselling author of Waking the Tiger, we will explore ways to resolve trauma and release it from our heart. As we claim our “gift of the gods,” we may return to hope, dignity, and wholeness.
