NATURE TEACHES US HOW TO TREAT INJURY
"To Wake the Tiger" presents trauma from a different angle, revealing the positive charge inherent in it. Peter Levin sees the human being as a unique creation of nature, endowed with the instinctive capacity for self-healing. How else can we explain the fact that animals in the wild, which constantly face threats, are rarely traumatized? It turns out that if we understand the dynamics that give wildlife immunity to the symptoms of trauma, we may find a way to treat human trauma.
As an experienced guide, the author shows the reader the delicate, but also very powerful internal impulses that govern human responses to overwhelming life situations. To cope, we have techniques at our disposal that teach us to recognize and, accordingly, overcome traumatic sensations. Dr. Levin actually offers us a wonderful and original approach to transforming and healing the damage of trauma by recognizing and harnessing the natural restorative powers embedded deep within every living being.
