Our Polyvagal World

How Safety and Trauma Change Us

De: Stephen W. Porges, Seth Porges

Narrado por: Paul Boehmer

The creator of the Polyvagal Theory explains the principles in simple terms that are accessible to all.

Since Stephen Porges first proposed the Polyvagal Theory in 1994, its basic idea-that the level of safety we feel impacts our health and happiness-has radically shifted how researchers and clinicians approach trauma interventions and therapeutic interactions. Yet despite its wide acceptance, most of the writing on the topic has been obscured behind clinical texts and scientific jargon.

Our Polyvagal World definitively presents how Polyvagal Theory can be understandable to all and demonstrates how its practical principles are applicable to anyone looking to live their safest, best, healthiest, and happiest life. What emerges is a worldview filled with optimism and hope, and an understanding as to why our bodies sometimes act in ways our brains wish they didn't.

Filled with actionable advice and real-world examples, this book will change the way you think about your brain, body, and ability to stay calm in a world that feels increasingly overwhelming and stressful.

para mi lo más destacado es la aplicabilidad de la teoria polivagal

es una teoria q explica muchas situaciones sociales desde el punto de vista del sistema nervioso

Good examples

I appreciated the many real life examples provided to correlate which a or blended state a person could be in. Makes understanding the PVT easier.

Helpful primer on polyvagal theory

This is a great introduction for anyone interested in the science of how our nervous system works in regard to our emotional safety and relationships with others. The narration feels a little stiff, and I genuinely thought it was an AI voice initially.

The scientific theory and practical application.

The narrator was rigid, monotone and impersonal. I loved the content of the book and the authors humility and insight. Incredibly powerful discovery!

outstanding

Accessible, easy to understand language for all areas of life... individuals, families, schools/teachers, religious institutions, etc.
