20 Embodied Practices for Healing Trauma and Addiction
by Jan Winhall
Trauma and addiction heal in tandem with this paradigm-shifting approach.
What if addiction, dissociation, and other manifestations of trauma were not framed as diseases or disorders, but rather as adaptive methods of regulating the autonomic nervous system? This book does just that, and guides readers through twenty embodied practices that allow for a rewiring of the ANS. By integrating the latest neuroscience from Stephen Porges’s Polyvagal Theory with Eugene Gendlin’s embodied Felt Sense, Jan Winhall’s Felt Sense Polyvagal Model is a paradigm-shifting, deeply somatic approach to healing trauma and addiction.
Practicing Embodied Thinking in Research and Learning
Edited by Donata Schoeller, Sigridur Thorgeirsdottir, and Greg Walkerden
This book delves into the embodied ground of thinking, illuminating the transition from theorizing about the embodied mind to actively practicing embodied thinking in research, teaching, and learning. The authors speak from immersing themselves in novel methods that engage the felt, experiential dimensions of cognition in inquiry.

Experiential Therapies for Treating Trauma
Edited by Evan Senreich, Shulamith Lala Ashenberg Straussnerm, and Jordan Dann
Jeffrey Morrison, writing with Riley Paterson, has a chapter in this book on Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy in the treatment of Trauma.
Experiential Therapies for Treating Trauma offers 17 chapters, with 15 of them focusing on a different experiential psychotherapy for treating trauma, written by clinicians with expertise in that modality. Chapters cover a number of experiential therapies, including Focusing, which are currently utilized and describe how to utilize each of them in psychotherapy practice. What they have in common is an acknowledged need for the use of therapeutic modalities that go beyond the cognitive processes, to incorporate more holistic, sensory approaches.
The Art of Prayer
by Baruch Brenner and Dana Ganihar
This book is the fruit of years of practice and exploration in the School for the Art of Prayer at the Shakio Institute. The book gently weaves together some of Gendlin’s concepts and subtle movements of Focusing. It offers a fundamentally new understanding of the meaning of prayer as a unique opportunity to open to the inner depths of our lives.
The Art of Prayer is a regenerative learning approach exploring a core component of human existence - our natural capacity for prayer. It is a framework of practices in which people from all walks of life – religious and secular, those who have an existing prayer practice and those who do not - are invited to discover fresh gateways into the Art of Prayer.
