This is the best book I’ve ever found for guiding clients with step-by-step instructions and practices for developing a somatic capacity for resilience in the face of stress.

This is one of my go-to books and I always have a copy of it near by!

LaDyne’s softer approach often leads readers toward greater ease which makes the healing process not so scary.
