Non si può guarire in modo efficace dal dolore e dalla sofferenza, che sia di tipo fisico, emotivo o spirituale, se il corpo non viene coinvolto e messo al centro del processo di guarigione. È la convinzione alla base del Somatic Experiencing (SE), il metodo che ha come obiettivo il superamento degli effetti che il trauma lascia sull'individuo, elaborato da Peter Levine e ormai diffuso in tutto il mondo. Perché soffriamo? Ma soprattutto, come comprendere se un dolore 'normale', 'necessario', è diventato un dolore 'cronico', una sofferenza che rimane incastonata nel corpo senza riuscire a essere elaborata e trasformata? Nella prospettiva del Somatic Experiencing, il trauma non risiede nell'evento esterno che induce dolore fisico o emotivo, ma si genera quando non siamo in grado di liberare le energie bloccate e di attraversare tutte le nostre reazioni fisico-emotive all'esperienza: non è dunque un fenomeno solo psicologico, ma una complessa reazione psico-neuro-fisiologica. Proprio all'innata capacità di autoregolazione del corpo gli autori si rivolgono con il programma Freedom from Pain ('Libertà dal dolore'): un percorso terapeutico di esercizi pratici, inseriti con chiarezza all'interno della dimensione teorica, che intende guidare il lettore verso il recupero della propria innata capacità di gestione e comprensione della sofferenza e degli schemi che la governano. Attraverso strategie di consapevolezza corporea per affrontare dissociazione, ansia, paura, panico e rabbia è possibile imparare a regolare i propri stati emotivi e fisici, creando le condizioni per un'alleanza

'This is a book written specifically for those of us who are assigned the task of developing an imagination for living the Christian faith with insight and skill in and for a society that is disconnected from the biblical revelation and the Jesus incarnation,' writes Eugene Peterson in the foreword of The Cultivated Life. 'But it is equally useful for all of us who are committed to following Jesus with our families and coworkers and neighbors.'Sociology professor and spiritual director Susan Phillips walks us through the 'circus' of our cultural landscape to invite us into a cultivated life of spirituality. If we want to accept the invitation to return to the garden, then we must face down the temptation to live life as spectators of the circus that plays on around us. We want to be rooted and grounded in Christ, but are pushed toward constant work, alternating between performance and spectacle. Cultivation requires a kind of attentiveness that is countercultural to our age of distraction. These pages unfold the spiritual practices that can lead us into a new and delightful way of living. Are you ready to leave the circus?

Provides practices for overcoming both physical and emotional pain by releasing negative feelings, gaining inner confidence, calming the body and more. Original.

The Somatic Experiencing® process, pioneered by Peter A. Levine, was met with skepticism 30 years ago. Today, it is dramatically changing the way that psychotherapists treat trauma—through its natural, somatic release. In this original audio adaptation of their new book, Levine and pain relief expert Maggie Phillips apply their combined clinical experience to offer a complete series of guided practices that have helped thousands to alleviate and often completely recover from chronic pain—even when conventional medical approaches alone have not been effective.

Every year since 1976, Project Censored, our nation's oldest news-monitoring group—a university-wide project at Sonoma State University founded by Carl Jensen, directed for many years by Peter Phillips, and now under the leadership of Mickey Huff—has produced a Top-25 list of underreported news stories and a book, Censored, dedicated to the stories that ought to be top features on the nightly news, but that are missing because of media bias and self-censorship. Seven Stories Press has been publishing this yearbook since 1994, featuring the top stories listed democratically in order of importance according to students, faculty, and a national panel of judges. Each of the top stories is presented at length, alongside updates from the investigative reporters who broke the stories. Beyond the Top-25 stories, additional chapters delve further into timely media topics: The Censored News and Media Analysis section provides annual updates on Junk Food News and News Abuse, Censored Déjà Vu, signs of hope in the alternative and news media, and the state of media bias and alternative coverage around the world. In the Truth Emergency section, scholars and journalists take a critical look at the US/NATO military-industrial-media empire. And in the Project Censored International section, the meaning of media democracy worldwide is explored in close association with Project Censored affiliates in universities and at media organizations all over the world. A perennial favorite of booksellers, teachers, and readers everywhere, Censored is one of the strongest life signs of our current collective desire to get the news we citizens need—despite what Big Media tells us.
