you need for well-being right inside of you. Written in an
engaging, accessible style, The Mind-Body Stress Reset offers
simple yet profound science-based tools that train you to
self-regulate your stress and connect with your optimal self. You
don't have to go down the rabbit hole of your mind. You can learn

excellent contribution."

"Rebekkah LaDyne combines three powerful and evocative tools: the
mental, emotional, and somatic aspects of the human body as
long-lasting, natural defenses against stress in a
sometimes-chaotic world. By hacking the mind-body connection in
concert, her well-supported methods recognize that the body also
needs a voice in maintaining balance. It is with joy and respect
that I recommend her book to those of us that need help in
remembering that balance."
--Elena Gillespie, PhD, adjunct faculty of mind-body medicine at
Saybrook University, and author of The Anatomy of Death--Elena
Gillespie, PhD
"Rebekkah LaDyne has written a wise, practical, and insightful
guide to working with adversity and stress. Weaving relevant theory
with evidence-based practice, LaDyne offers a powerful road map for
safe and transformative body-based practice. It is clearly written,
full of heart, and an outstanding contribution to the field."
--David Treleaven, PhD, author of Trauma-Sensitive
Mindfulness--David Treleaven, PhD
"Somatic intelligence is often a neglected or rather forgotten
territory. Rebekkah LaDyne shows us with her remarkable book how
much potential for healing opens up once we invite this
intelligence into our consciousness, and give it space to balance
out the wounds of trauma and neglect. The book is a wonderful blend
of scientifically based theory and playful exercises. I wish the
whole world would read it--I see it as a guide into health,
happiness, and joyful living."
--Urs Honauer, PhD, SEP, Somatic Experiencing(R) Trauma Institute
senior faculty, and director of the Center for Inner Ecology in
Zurich, Switzerland--Urs Honauer, PhD, SEP
