Being Fiercely Present: Overcoming Trauma Difficulties in Mindfulness Practice

by Sue Berry McMurray

Overview

Many cannot just forget because these memories are frozen, stored and sometimes buried, surfacing briefly in ways that can seem illogical and crazy. The author takes us on a journey with twists and turns, including dissociated aspects of childhood trauma. The book gives us insight into the survival systems of the brain, and leads us to understand more about ourselves. Readers will engage from many different directions: parents, counselors, teachers, law enforcement, mental health workers, and more.
