Thank you Healing Arts Press and Netgalley for an ARC of this book in return for my honest review.

This is a great book for giving an understandable explanation of my PTSD affects sufferers, the brain areas affected and the way thinking becomes distorted in the process. The book contains great diagrams, graphs and usable exercises as well as giving examples of people’s experiences of PTSD.

I was interested in understanding more about CBT and this book gave me an easy to read understanding as well as giving a complimentary understanding of yoga, particularly kundalini yoga basics in the process.

I would Recommend this book to anyone wishing to have a better understanding of PTSD, but also anyone hoping to have a better understanding of their stress responses and having access to useful tools to reduce stress in their life.

Thank you for the opportunity to read this helpful, interesting book.

An innovative way to combat the PTSD by applying a combination of CBT and Yoga. This is a perfect companion for people with PTSD, family members and therapists.

This book provides a great description of the symptoms a person can experience with PTSD. Several helpful exercises are demonstrated throughout the book as well as descriptions of yoga posing, meditation and breathing exercises to do to help a person heal and move forward in life. This book offers hope and the steps to move beyond a person's trauma and to start living again.

Thank you Netgalley and Healing Arts Press for the ARC copy.

I found that a lot of the content in this book is quite repetitive and already well-known to most people dealing with PTSD but I really enjoyed the yoga sections and the diagrams to help with following these parts through. I found them very helpful and enjoyable.

A very necessary book. I myself have PTSD issues I deal with and have found CBT to be a significant help. I am very interested in trying the kundalini yoga techniques outlined here. I find it helpful to do the exercises with another person but everyone is of course different. Thoughtful and well-written.
My thanks to NetGalley for providing me with an eARC in exchange for my honest opinion.
