Healing the Roots of Trauma

From award-winning science writer and bestselling author Dawson Church comes a groundbreaking approach to the treatment of trauma.

A growing number of studies are demonstrating that EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is one of our most effective therapies for treating trauma--but why? How can something so seemingly simple treat something so very complex?

The answer lies in the way EFT seamlessly integrates the physical, emotional, and energetic components needed for trauma recovery. Often referred to as "tapping," EFT is an accessible practice that involves tapping specific acupressure points while repeating key phrases. By combining elements of cognitive and exposure therapies with acupressure points and energy psychology, EFT offers an effective mind-body methodology that anyone can learn to use.

With Healing the Roots of Trauma, Dawson Church, bestselling author and founder of the National Institute for Integrative Healthcare, examines the growing body of research on why energy-based practices like EFT are so critical for the treatment of trauma. A fascinating journey into the science behind this powerful technique, this audio program will also explore what trauma is and how it affects the body, as well as describe basic EFT practices for healing and resilience.
