Editorial Reviews

Review

"Dann's workbook distills complex interventions into no-nonsense, step-by-step processes that will help get you grounded in your body when the past hijacks your nervous system and you feel overwhelmed, paralyzed, reactive, or disconnected. With clarity and warmth, she demystifies somatic healing work, making it broadly accessible in this creative, powerful collection of psychoeducational and experiential resources. A must-read―and must re-read!" ―Alicia Muñoz, LPC, couples therapist and author of Stop Overthinking Your Relationship: Break the Cycle of Anxious Rumination to Nourish Love, Trust, and Connection With Your Partner

"Dann's compassionate wisdom and warmth is a cherished companion along the often confusing and lonely path of trauma-healing. This workbook is an accessible, practical, experiential guide for anyone who is interested in learning more about somatic therapy and trauma-healing. Therapists will also benefit from this workbook, which offers experiential somatic tools to expand their work with clients, or complementary support for clients to develop embodiment and nervous system regulation outside of therapy."
―Blake Blankenbecler, LPC

"Jordan Dann's book is an invitation to hope and recovery for any person wanting to heal traumatic stress through the techniques of somatic therapy. This workbook reminds us that by building the capacity to regulate our body and awareness of our inner processes, we can vitalize and create healing in our life. Jordan Dann's clear and concise guide to using somatic techniques is essential reading and practice for anyone interested in healing trauma and improving body awareness and overall well-being."
―Yoon Im Kane, LCSW, CGP, founder and CEO of Mindful NYC, psychotherapist, and author of The Mindfulness workbook for Depression and Women, Intersectionality and Power in Group Psychotherapy

"This book is a perfect starting point for anyone who is 'somatic curious.' Jordan Dann does a wonderful job transforming potentially esoteric, abstract concepts into concrete, step-by-step, beautifully worded prompts. I would recommend this book to anyone who is beginning their somatic journey."
―Michelle Cleary, LCSW, SEP, founder of Find The Shift, LLC

"Jordan Dan has crafted a highly informed and useful guide to mind-body trauma work. An important tool for clinicians and patients."
―Elliot Zeisel, PhD, DFAGPA, executive producer GROUP - The Series

5 out of 5 stars
Excellent Resource
This detailed and clearly written book offers both insight and practical suggestions on how to deal with and understand trauma and how it is stored in the body, from the vantage point of Somatic Therapy. While it is geared toward the survivors of trauma, it also offers excellent guidance for clinicians. Using the work of writers such as Peter Levine and Bessel van der Kolk as a resource, Jordan Dann offers a Tool Kit with techniques that help increase awareness of how trauma is activated in the present, and then offers ways to move forward with grounding techniques that begin to support the development of new and healing patterns. I especially appreciated the attention to pendulation, titration, and sequencing, and the use of imagery and somatic tracking as ways to cultivate strategies that help a person move from retraumatization in the present moment to a sensory and grounded experience of safety. I recommend this book as an excellent and useful resource, to all survivors of trauma, and to their therapists.Arleen Maiorano, LCSW, LPDirector, Gestalt Associates for Psychotherapy

Jordan has done the somatic healing community a huge service by publshing this amazing book! There are not a lot of resources where somatic tools are written out and explained clearly and succintly - this book fills that gap. Often somatic tools in other books are interlaced into enormous amounts of theory - which is important - but the strategies can get lost in the shuffle. Jordan takes her expereice with Gestalt, Object relations, Somatic Experiecning and other theories and techniques and presents it in a way for an indvidual intersted in healing to further their journey, as a catalogue of interventions for therapists, and also as way workbook for clients and healers to do together - or any other combination. I run a large practice and have made sure that this book is avaialbe as resource for our clinicans in all of our offices. So if your looking to heal and are drawn to the powerful world of somatic therapy, this a great place to dive in, or to suppliment what you've already started.

Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2022
I really appreciated the organization of this workbook. It has a pleasant and clear layout that is characteristic of this publisher. It is simple to read and for this reason many people can grasp the content and concepts.

However I cannot recommend this book for three reasons. The first is the implied statement that the techniques are evidence based (advertised on the back cover). They are not supported by research in most cases. An example is “bilateral drawing” which the author cites as calming and regulating. This is simply not the case and it is obvious that the author does not know the procedures that are put in place for this type of approach in trauma work.

Also, the references are either quite old or do not provide evidence based support. On the bilateral work, why didn’t this author note at least one of the books available that describe this process in detail? The author did not invent this technique and she read about it somewhere. This leaves one wondering if there are other missing references that were left out for some reason.

I also wish this book were more trauma-informed. Models like Window of Tolerance and the use of the word “trigger” are popular, that is true. This is a minor detail, but it is important to me as a therapist when I provide workbooks to patients who has suffered trauma.

Overall, this book is ironically very cognitive, asking people to make lists and do a lot of writing. Somatic therapy stays more closely with non verbal communication such as movement and sound and even drawing.

Again, the layout is nice so I gave it a three star, but the content is not based on research and is more of a two star rating. The author could have said based on “emerging or best practices” — it would have been much more honest.

I just received this book yesterday and I’m on Chapter 4. I’m not a workbook person, but this is useful & supports my nervous system. It brings research (which is my love language), along with strategies to deepen my somatics journey. Invite all to dive in. I will be utilizing this again and again because ya know, neurons that fire together, write together.
