We can heal and prevent trauma on an individual level by learning to self-regulate our nervous system when its balance is shattered by traumatic events.  Simple awareness can help our bodies discharge traumatic energy and return to normal. This innovative process allows us to recuperate our physiological, emotional and mental functions.

Regaining this balance at the collective level can help us bring up our children in a safer world.  Understanding these biological origins of trauma and violence can reshape our understanding of political conflicts, the costs of trauma; create a new political dialogue, a rethinking of education and social programs, and a global commitment to healing trauma.

These books are a series created to address the problem of and the healing of trauma at the global level. The books address each social sector (clergy, media, medicine, education, public, military, diplomats and NGOs) positioned to help protect us from the devastation of traumatic events and the damaging symptoms those events create.
