Publications
I am happy to present my first article published in the Journal of Integral Theory and Practice. It is based on my thesis work and is a subject I am passionate about–healing the sexual abuse epidemic in this world.
Please feel free to download a copy of this article AN INTEGRAL SOLUTION TO HEALING SEXUAL ABUSE TRAUMA. For your reference, the abstract is listed below, along with copyright information.
ABSTRACT. This article presents an Integral solution to the trauma and recovery of sexual abuse survivors. In doing so, it addresses the different areas of human experience for a multi -dimensional treatment and prevention approach to healing sexual abuse trauma. Current treatment models focus on the recovery of the perpetrator or the victim, with punishment and treatment of the perpetrator being addressed separately from the concerns of the abuse victim. The Integral framework approaches healing trauma through building a stronger self-identity and release of emotional trauma that is held in the body and mind through yoga therapy and additional practices, such as learning how to feel again, developing interior and exterior resources, building appropriate relationships and trust, and resolving the epidemic and stigma of abuse in society.
