Trauma isn't a mental sentence — it's biological energy trapped inside your body. In this microbook, Peter Levine introduces Somatic Experiencing, an approach that treats trauma as an interrupted physiological cycle and shows how to complete it using the instinctive wisdom every human animal already carries within.
