Supporting Emotional Release
Reading List
I recommend that you read something before the start of class. This list is a work in progress. New titles will be added:
Start with SomatoEmotional Release by John Upledger to get a sense of what this work can do. One of Dr. John’s most important legacies has been the development of techniques to support clients’ emotional release. Then, I recommend The Insightful Body by Julie McKay. It’s a straightforward, step by step, easy to understand introduction to the dialoging techniques we use in this work. Next, I recommend Embracing Ourselves by Hal Stone and Sidra Stone. The dialog tools presented in this book are great for beginners and also more advanced practitioners alike. It’s a valuable guide for helping us make peace and harmony among our many “selves”.
Interviewing for Solutions by Peter DeJong and Insoo Kim Berg will teach you plenty about how to ask the right questions to efficiently get to the core of what needs to be done.
Next, I would read about trauma. I recommend Waking the Tiger by peter Levine. This is a groundbreaking book about transforming and healing trauma. Scared Sick: The Role of Childhood Trauma in Adult Disease by Robin Karr-Morse and Meredith Wiley is a fascinating read about how stress and fear in the prenatal period, infancy and early childhood contribute to adult illnesses like heart disease, diabetes and depression. It’s sobering, well-written and backed by research.
