From one of the most prominent voices in the trauma conversation comes a groundbreaking new way to heal on a personal and a collective level. In this revolutionary book, Prentis Hemphill shows us how. 'What It Takes to Heal' asserts that the principles of embodiment - the recognition of our body's sensations and habits, and the beliefs that inform them - are critical to lasting healing and transformation. In this life-affirming framework for the way forward, Hemphill shows us how to heal our bodies, minds, and souls - to develop the interpersonal skills necessary to break down the doors of disconnection and take the necessary risks to reshape our world toward justice.
