PT526 – Transforming Trauma: Community, Connection, and the Healing Power of Vulnerability, with Peter A. Levine, Ph.D.
Manage episode 426806955 series 1088550
In this episode, Kyle interviews Peter A. Levine, Ph.D.: developer of Somatic Experiencing®, educator, and author of several best-selling books on trauma.
His most recent book, An Autobiography of Trauma: A Healing Journey, is exactly that: a change from more scholarly writing into an extremely vulnerable telling of his early childhood trauma and how he has healed over the years. He talks about how his unconscious convinced him to write the book, how trauma can move into the body, and how he needed a student to identify how his trauma was affecting him. He believes that we all have wounding, but it's how we carry these wounds and tell our truth that matters.
He discusses:
- The need to allow space for both Indigenous traditions and evidence-based Western frameworks
- The power of having even just one distinct moment of feeling cared for and loved
- How Colin Turnbull saw healing differently after living with an African tribe for three years
- Why he suggests 15-20 sober experiences with non-ordinary states for each drug experience
- Why not having a community or empathetic other makes us more vulnerable to trauma
and more!
