The Healing Dimensions - Resolving Trauma in Body, Mind and Spirit oleh Brent Baum

In his first book, The Healing Dimensions, Brent Baum reveals his discovery of the key principles contributing to the resolution of memory-based pain in the bodymind. Much that we label illness, depression, anxiety, migraine, illness, and chronic pain finds its origins in memory. Originally developed as a relapse prevention strategy to help those with addictions, the effectiveness of “Holographic Memory Resolution®” drew the attention of leaders in the fields of addictions treatment and Integrative Medicine. Recognizing HMR as a breakthrough in the “emotional reframing” of stress and trauma, Brent was invited to develop the trauma program at Cottonwood Treatment Centers in New Mexico and Arizona. This bridged into his involvement with Oklahoma City Bombing rescue personnel and survivors, as well as the staff of TWA Flight 800 and many other traumas of the last two decades. His success in helping to resolve memory-based pain led to his affiliation with the Integrative Wellness programs of Dr. Andrew Weil at the University of Arizona and at Miraval in Northwest Tucson, AZ. In this work, Brent focuses on his discoveries in the fields of Somatic and Energy Psychology that help to resolve the multidimensional impact of addiction, abuse, and trauma on the psyche. The first half of the book focuses on the principles and strategies that can be employed to free us from memory-based constraints of trauma, pain, abuse, and addiction. The second half of the book focuses on the spiritual impact of trauma and the internal fragmentation that results. He shares with us principles for the reclamation of our integrity after the alienation that accompanies trauma induction. This work is particularly helpful for children of alcoholics and those impacted by addiction. The hallmark of Brent’s work is the empowerment of the healer we hold within.
