JAMES GORDON, M.D., Founder and Executive Director, Center for Mind
Body Medicine; Author, _The Transformation: Discovering Wholeness and
Healing After Trauma_
Trauma can come at any time in the life span and have significant
impact on one's life. Trauma comes early to those who have been abused
or neglected as children or arrive in the world facing the challenges
of poverty and discrimination. It may come later as people deal with
the pain of broken relationships, overwhelming job stress, sexual
harassment, the dangers of combat or a life-threatening or serious
illness. For those who live long enough, contending with the loss of
loved ones, physical frailty and impending death brings still more
trauma. How does one heal from trauma whenever it comes?
JAMES S. GORDON, an authority on post-TRAUMATIC STRESS AND AN
ACCLAIMED MIND–body medicine pioneer, has worked for decades with
individuals and communities around the world to address the damage
done by TRAUMA. In his new book, _The Transformation: Discovering
Wholeness and Healing After Trauma_, Gordon offers the first
comprehensive, evidence-based program for reversing the biological and
psychological damage from trauma and for discovering and growing
through its challenges to become the people we’re meant to be.
Offering eye-opening research, innovative prescriptive support and
inspirational stories, _The Transformation_, for the first time,
gives the reading public clear guidance in the methods that Gordon has
developed and that he and his team at the Center for Mind-Body
Medicine have used to relieve the suffering of hundreds of thousands
of children and adults around the world. Come hear from one of world's
leading experts on trauma and how to transform the lives of those
suffering from it.
