So I have picked up a couple of new books to continue in my reading. I can only work through the Courage to Heal workbook at a certain pace. I picked up -
Secret Survivors
Secret Scars
Healing Trauma by Peter Levine
Walking the Tiger by Peter Levine (actually only downloaded a sample of this one)
Looked at "Drama of the Gifted Child" at the bookstore over the weekend, although I didn't buy it.
Any comments on these? Any others to add to the list? Reading is one of my comforts - although it usually isn't as intense as these.
For pleasure, I just started Elegance of the Hedgehog.
Is the secret scars the Turner or Robson book? I've heard good things about 'waking the tiger'.
ReplyDeleteI think Secret Scars is Tower? I'll check - the book is on home. I think you are right - it is Waking (not Walking) the Tiger. Although I'm not sure I want to do either :)
ReplyDeleteI've tried reading "Courage to Heal" and just couldn't do it. I ended up giving the book away. I guess I wasn't 'there' yet.
ReplyDeleteI have read "Waking the Tiger" and enjoyed it. A number of things made sense to me but I'm not sure if I could wake the tiger so to speak either.
inamaze - I am working my way slowly through Courage to Heal. I put it down sometimes for months at a time. I'm finding that healing doesn't adhere to a schedule. You do what you can when you can.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
