Synopsis

Trauma To Peace - Mindfulness For Veterans is the encounter between a group of veterans and a mindfulness teacher. After working together for many years, they wanted to share their experience so that others could learn the practice of mindfulness and find relief from the anxiety, irritability, and depression that comes from living with PTSD. The veterans in this book have come to peace with their past and are using this knowledge as a source of strength and a motivating force for service. The veterans share their personal stories and the relief that has come from practicing mindfulness. Many of them had tried other solutions that worked temporarily, but nothing has helped as much as learning to quiet the body, calm the heart, and clear the mind. Dr. Travis teaches if a person wishes to recover from trauma, he or she needs to study the way it works. Through mindfulness, the simple practice of attention and awareness, one can experience peace, even from the traumatizing effects of combat. The book presents simple techniques to heal the fear, anger and grief that comes from trauma. At the heart of Trauma To Peace is the hope that veterans and others can find their own way to peace.
