Body as Healer, Freedom From Chronic Pain by Dr. Peter Levine

When you’re living with chronic pain, your experience might feel like red hot lava radiating through your body. And when you look for help from a medical professional, they don’t believe you or point you in a direction where you’ve found no relief.

Modern medicine does not fully understand chronic conditions like fibromyalgia, IBS, or migraines and the conditions that often accompany them. But what we want you to know is that these symptoms, as challenging as they are, do not have to ruin your life; they do not have to be a life sentence.

Peter A. Levine, PhD, the father of body-based healing and developer of Somatic Experiencing®, offers a groundbreaking path to relief in his new program Body as Healer: Freedom from Chronic Pain.

In it, he shares his life's work based on decades of successful practice to help you:

  • Release the fear, frustration, and depression intensified by prior traumas

  • Build inner resilience and self-regulation

  • Bring you back to your authentic self—and finally achieve freedom from pain

PLUS, Dr. Levine will be available for 6 LIVE sessions to help you integrate your learning and answer any questions.

Your body knows what it needs, and Somatic Experiencing methods can help you find the answers. If this program sounds right for you, we invite you to join below.
