DESCRIPTION

How We Heal Trauma, Awaken Our Own Power, and Use It for Good

From trauma educator and somatic guide

Kimberly Ann Johnson comes a cutting-edge guide for tapping into the wisdom and

resilience of the body to rewire the nervous system, heal from trauma, and live

fully.


In an increasingly polarized world where trauma is often publicly renegotiated,

our nervous systems are on high alert. From skyrocketing rates of depression

and anxiety to physical illnesses such as autoimmune diseases and digestive

disorders, many women today find themselves living out of alignment with their

bodies.

Kimberly Johnson is a somatic practitioner, birth

doula, and postpartum educator who specializes in helping women recover from

all forms of trauma. In her work, she’s seen the same themes play out time and

again. In a culture that prioritizes executive function and “mind over matter,”

many women are suffering from deeply unresolved pain that causes mental and

physical stagnation and illness.

In Call of the Wild, Johnson offers an

eye-opening look at this epidemic as well as an informative view of the human

nervous system and how it responds to difficult events. From the “small t”

traumas of getting ghosted, experiencing a fall-out with a close friend, or

swerving to avoid a car accident to the “capital T” traumas of sexual assault,

an upending natural disaster, or a life-threatening illness—Johnson explains

how the nervous system both protects us from immediate harm and creates

reverberations that ripple through a lifetime.

In this practical, empowering guide, Johnson shows

readers how to metabolize these nervous system responses, allowing everyone to

come home to their deepest, most intuitive and whole selves. Following her

supportive advice, readers will learn how to move from wholeness, tapping into

the innate wisdom of their senses, soothing frayed nerves and reconnecting with

their “animal selves.”

While we cannot cure

the painful cultural rifts inflicting our society, there is a path

forward—through our bodies.
