Paperback. Condition: Very Good.  A world-recognized authority and acclaimed mind-body medicine pioneer presents the first evidence-based program for trauma healing to reverse the psychological and biological damage caused by trauma. Filled with practical self-care tools to alleviate stress, anxiety, fear, and sleeplessness. In his role as the founder and executive director of The Center for Mind-Body Medicine (CMBM), Dr. Gordon has created and implemented what may well be the world's largest and most effective program for healing population-wide psychological trauma. He and 130 international faculty have brought this program to populations as diverse as refugees from wars in the Balkans, the Middle East, and Africa; firefighters and U.S. military personnel and their families; student/parent/teacher school shooting survivors; and Native American children - as well as stressed out professionals, stay-at-home mothers, inner-city children, and people struggling with mental and physical disorders and end of life challenges. Dr. Gordon's work is grounded in scientific evidence and timeless wisdom. Through his decades of first-hand experience, he understands that trauma will come to all of us sooner or later. That each of us has the capacity to understand and heal ourselves from the symptoms of PTSD. And that the heartbreaking devastation that trauma causes can also open our hearts and minds to deeper understanding, enhanced meaning and purpose, and greater love. In the compassionate, compelling pages of Transforming Trauma, he invites us on a step-by-step, evidence-based journey of self-healing to heal the psychological and biological damage that trauma brings and to become the people whom we are meant to be. This groundbreaking book offers a complete program for recovery, presenting proven techniques to help you reclaim your life from trauma: Mind-Body Skills: Learn the foundational meditation technique, Soft Belly breathing, used to quiet the fight-or-flight response, calm anxiety, and reverse the biological damage of stress. The Trauma-Healing Diet: Discover which foods and supplements can repair your gut, rebalance your brain chemistry, and break the cycle of stress-induced comfort eating. Post-Traumatic Growth: Understand the science of how to transform heartbreaking devastation into a life of deeper meaning, purpose, and connection. Healing Childhood Wounds: Address the lasting impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) with compassionate, evidence-based tools for self-awareness and recovery. …

Paperback. Condition: Good. NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Radicalism of the Revolution comes "an elegant, concise, and lucid summary of the Revolution's origins, the war itself, and the social and political changes wrought by the struggle for American independence" (The Wall Street Journal). "This slim book tells a big story: one that invites the reader to contemplate the relationships between liberty, power, rights, and the unpredictable outcomes of human action."--Los Angeles Times Book Review When Abraham Lincoln sought to define the significance of the United States, he naturally looked back to the American Revolution. He knew that the Revolution not only had legally created the United States, but also had produced all of the great hopes and values of the American people. Our noblest ideals and aspirations-our commitments to freedom, constitutionalism, the well-being of ordinary people, and equality-came out of the Revolutionary era. Lincoln saw as well that the Revolution had convinced Americans that they were a special people with a special destiny to lead the world toward liberty. The Revolution, in short, gave birth to whatever sense of nationhood and national purpose Americans have had. No doubt the story is a dramatic one: Thirteen insignificant colonies three thousand miles from the centers of Western civilization fought off British rule to become, in fewer than three decades, a huge, sprawling, rambunctious republic of nearly four million citizens. But the history of the American Revolution, like the history of the nation as a whole, ought not to be viewed simply as a story of right and wrong from which moral lessons are to be drawn. It is a complicated and at times ironic story that needs to be explained and understood, not blindly celebrated or condemned. How did this great revolution come about? What was its character? What were its consequences? These are the questions this short history seeks to answer. That it succeeds in such a profound and enthralling way is a tribute to Gordon Wood's mastery of his subject, and of the historian's craft.…
