When the Past Is Always Present: Emotional Traumatization, Causes, and Cures introduces several new ideas about trauma and trauma treatment. The first of these is that another way to treat disorders arising from the mind/brain may be to use the senses. This idea, which is at the core of psychosensory therapy, forms what the author considers the "third pillar" of trauma treatment (the first and second pillars being psychotherapy and psychopharmacology). Psychosensory therapy postulates that sensory inputfor example, touchcreates extrasensory activity that alters brain function and the way we respond to stimuli. The second idea presented in this book is that traumatization is encoded in the amygdala only under special circumstances. Thus, by understanding what makes an individual resistant to traumatization we can offer a way of preventing it. The third idea is that traumatization occurs because we cannot find a haven during the event. This is the cornerstone of havening, the particular form of psychosensory therapy described in the book. Using evolutionary biological principles and recently published neuroscientific studies, this book outlines in detail how havening touch de-links the emotional experience from a trauma, essentially making it just an ordinary memory. Once done, the event no longer causes distress.

  1. En bok att behålla för resten av livet
    Crying Angel, 24 april 2014

    Har inte läst hela boken än, men hittills är jag mycket nöjd. Den för in en ny dimension inom traumabehandling på ett tydligt och lättfattligt sätt. Den milda gröna tonen på pärmen ger en lugnande känsla som på ett tydligt sätt speglar bokens innehåll då havening syftar till att nå en trygg hamn.
    Rekommenderas varmt.

    Erinnerungen sind der Stoff, aus dem wir gemacht sind. Die meisten davon sind angenehm, einige jedoch erzeugen großes Leid: Lästige Verhaltensweisen, ständige Schmerzen, irritierende somatische Empfindungen oder irrationale Ängste bleiben uns als ...

Övrig information

Since 1983, Ronald A. Ruden has run an internal medicine practice in Manhattan and dedicated part of the proceeds to follow research interests. His first efforts were described in his book, The Craving Brain, a neurobiological discussion of addictive behaviors. In 2003 he began a new research project involving the understanding of traumatization that has led to three publications in Traumatology, edited by Charles Figley, and to this book. He continues his research on traumatization.
