| Trauma is neither a disease nor a disorder, but is rather an injury caused by paralyzing fright, helplessness and loss. If we enlist the wisdom of the living, sensing body and engage our innate capacity to self-regulate high states of arousal and intense emotion, we can transform trauma and be healed.
Drawing on more than 40 years as a pioneering body-oriented clinician, as well as a parallel study of stress, biology, child development and discoveries in the neurosciences, Dr. Levine shows that it is possible to live life robustly with pleasure and creativity, even in the face of the most painful assaults to our humanity-and in the face of deceptively trivial ones. From an evolutionary understanding of the source of trauma, to a spiritual dimension of how we as human beings can be strengthened by traumatic healing, this journey unfolds-if we learn to attend to the “unspoken voice of the body.” We will also explore the roots of addiction in unresolved trauma, insecure attachment and habitual childhood frustration. |

Thirty-five years ago an idea was born—an idea to transform the way addictions were treated—an idea to create a revolutionary new therapeutic model that incorporated trauma resolution, 12-step traditions and the holistic healing of mind, body and spirit. That idea took shape as a small alcohol treatment facility for only seven patients, but quickly grew into what it is today—America’s premier center for the treatment of addiction and trauma with over 18,000 patients from around the world. Over the years, The Meadows has had an enormous impact on mental health industry, training thousands of therapists and treatment providers on the Meadows Model—widely accepted as one of the most advanced and effective methods of treating addiction and trauma. On this, our 35th anniversary year, The Meadows wishes to take time out to salute all the talented and dedicated people who helped make that idea a reality.
