    Challenges the notion that clients with PTSD must revisit, review, and process their memories to recover from trauma.Being able to monitor and modulate a trauma client's dysregulated nervous system is one of the practitioner's best lines of defense against traumatic hyperarousal going amok—risking consequences such as dissociation and decompensation. This audio edition of Babette Rothschild's The Body Remembers, Volume 2, clarifies and simplifies autonomic nervous system (ANS) understanding and observation.Multiple therapeutic transcripts illuminate key points in trauma treatment, including stabilizing clients who dissociate, identifying and implementing hidden somatic resources, and utilizing good memories and somatic markers. With an authoritative yet personal voice, Rothschild's book is essential listening for anyone working with those who have experienced trauma.

    Finnish culture is centuries old, yet Finland itself has only been an independent nation for just over one hundred years.  
Finland’s history is an interesting subject filled with misconceptions. Would you be surprised to learn that the Finns, for the most part, were not Vikings? Or that Finland is not part of Scandinavia? The Finns are not even related to their closest neighbors: Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. 
This book pulls back the curtain so you can get a better look at Finland’s history. Its history is exciting, even without the Vikings, and its proximity to Russia is something that is still talked about in the news today. 
In 2022, moves were made for the nation to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Finland has entered a new phase of its history. But wouldn’t you like to learn about its past? 
In this book, you’ll learn the following:The ancient Finnish did not worship the famous Norse gods like Thor and Odin.The national poem of Finland, the Kalevala, explores the ancient Finnish creation myth and the gods and heroes of Finland’s distant past.The history of Finland and Sweden are intertwined; Finland was part of Sweden for five hundred years!Finland was also part of the Russian Empire from 1809 to 1917.The Finns fought a heroic struggle against the Russians in 1939/40, which inspired the world and inspires Finns today.The Finn who commanded Finland’s armies during that struggle, Marshal Mannerheim, was of Swedish/German descent and did not speak Finnish particularly well. Yet, in 2004, he was voted the “greatest Finn of all time.”Finnish is one of the most unique languages in the world.And much, much more!

    Take action against fear now! 
“The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” 
As one of the greatest proverbial quotes of our time, it carries with it undeniable wisdom to justify our deepest discomfort with the unknown, that is “fear”. Yet, have you ever stopped to wonder about the fallacy here? If that were entirely accurate, then you probably would never have any fear (or heck, you wouldn’t be reading this). 
Fear is older than ourselves and has existed since prehistoric times. It is ingrained and defines what makes us humans. Fear is not just feeling frightened, but it can be any distressing emotion like anxiety, nervousness, and, of course, phobia. 
With that said, fear can be used as a driving force whenever we need motivation or are afraid of losing something, or as a survival mechanism to prevent and protect us from things that put us in danger that have been biologically engineered in us throughout history (i.e., poisonous snakes) or acquired through some traumatic childhood experience (i.e., the fear of dogs because you were bitten by one as a kid or distrust for certain individual’s profile who harmed you). 
The verdict?  
Fear is neither good nor bad but does exist. While there are some good fears, there are certainly bad ones that hold us back from getting out of our comfort zone, pursuing our goals, and achieving greater success. The important thing is knowing how to utilize fears in our favor. 
Anti-Fear will teach you to develop a bulletproof mentality and show you how to: 
Overcome the things that scared you using proven “exposure therapy
Get rid of the deepest phobias that you have carried all of your life
Instantly stop a sudden fear out of nowhere from taking over you
Control and keep chronic fears at bay with powerful visualization
Turn fear into a source for improving productivity and motivation
And much more!

 
Anti-Fear is not simply going to give you another inspirational speech of “just be confident” blah blah blah, but actually provide you step-by-step processes, even what professional therapists would do, on how to deal with all sorts of fears. 
So, are you ready to face your deepest darkest fears? No more fear or phobia will ever stifle you again.

    Wired for Connection are the lessons clients taught a therapist over a career about love, courage, vulnerability, shame and authenticity 
Therapists learn and grow from therapy with clients--and now you can too!  
Carolyn graduated from counselling school with a ton of head knowledge. Carolyn read 1000’s of pages and written hundreds more and learned the models and the approaches in the books. Did this therapist know enough to actually help people? 
Turns out she didn’t. 
That’s where her clients come in. They taught her about life, about therapy, and about relationships. 
So much of what clients taught her was paradoxical. Actually, they didn’t teach her—the most important lessons in life are better caught than taught. The lessons were counterintuitive to conventional relationship wisdom. 
Together they learned the way to real relationships was messiness, mistakes and discomfort. They noticed the route to acceptance was authenticity, that tears make life better, and that raw courage is often about tender things like saying, “I’m sorry” and “I love you”. And so much more. 
Relationships are hard—but we are wired for them. We are wired for struggle and growth. Watching people struggle with their own lives has inspired her to struggle and grow in hers. 
Relationships are hard for us all. But if we show up to connect, and we do it anything like right, we learn from each other. We learn from each other in ways that surprise and delight us. 
We are wired for connection.
