On August 17 we will be broadcasting this Tapping out of Trauma trainings free interview with Christy Gibson MD who recently released to the hightest acclaim her new book, A Modern Trauma Toolkit; Nurturing Your Post-Traumatic Growth
The interview will air on August 17 at 9 am Seattle/Pacific Time Zone (and yes all registrants will have free access to the interview recording!).
Amid collective trauma, it helps to know that our bodies are built to respond to stress and what we might do to shift those reflexes. Having studied brain-based and body-based approaches to wellbeing, Dr. Christy Gibson teaches listeners how to embrace their innate power and catalyze community wisdom. Drawing on her work with people suffering from stress and societal challenges, Dr. Gibson shares practical and effective mental health advice you can personalize.
Christy brings a profound depth of trauma knowledge and skillsets (including EFT, Matrix Reimprinting, TRE, Havening and much more). Her work is informed both by her personal experiences as well as intimate communal experiences from having with indigenous, immigrant and other marginalized communities. I personally believe that her book is a must-have not only for every practitioner who works with traumatized individuals but also offers a safe, non-triggering, heartfelt writing style that makes this particular trauma book accessible to anyone interested in the topic.
In clear and accessible language, The Modern Trauma Toolkit describes new theories in brain biology, such as the polyvagal theory and epigenetics, and explains how you can remodel your brain to achieve post-traumatic growth. While noting how particular communities face inequitable stressors, she empowers listeners to identify and harness their unique and cultural strengths
Here are just a few glowing reviews:
From Gabor Mate, MD: "Dr. Gibson's gem of a book is a succinct and penetrating primer on trauma and approaches to its treatment."
From Stephen Porges, PhD: "The Modern Trauma Toolkit is a comprehenseive collection of exercises that will enable the reader to experience the often-forgotten universal wisom that healing is dependant on feeling safe enought to invoie our nervous sstem to be a collaborator on our personal journey to health."
