Practical and short to start healing

This audiobook was a great starting point to understand how childhood trauma works, at least for me. Chapter 2 focuses on that, giving insights into how traumas affect anxiety and body-mind regulation, it’s my favorite. The chapter about healing strategies combines many common practices with some new ones! And that’s not to imply that the old techniques don’t work, they do!

The only con I found is that sometimes the narration sounds a bit saturated, too high at times and too low at others, but aside from that, nothing to complain about. The book delivers what it promises, and I really enjoyed it!

A thoughtful and compassionate listen

A thoughtful and compassionate listen that sheds light on the impact of childhood trauma. The narration is warm and steady, making the experience both moving and comforting.

Very Eye Opening

This book was very eye opening. It made me realize just how much we carry trauma and how it can continue without us into adulthood if we never sit down and deal with it.

Healing Old Wounds

Overall, this was a really great audiobook but a bit short. The author writes like someone who gets what it’s like to live with old emotional wounds that have not healed. The narration fits the tone gentle but strong. I appreciated how it mixes personal experience with real, practical healing tools instead of feeling overly clinical. The book made me pause a few times and think about my life and how I can use what the author is discussing. I’m going to listen to it again because I have ADHD and feel I zoned out a few times.
