A pioneering researcher gives us a new understanding of stress and trauma, as well as the tools to heal and thrive.

We usually think of stress and trauma as separate conditions, but they actually share a neurobiological basis. This groundbreaking book not only lays out how and why we tend to disown trauma, it explains the science of how to direct our attention to widen our windows of resilience, perform under stress, and recover from traumatic experiences.

Stress is our internal response to an experience that the survival brain perceives as threatening or challenging. Trauma is our response to an experience in which we feel powerless or lacking control. Until now, researchers have treated these conditions as different, but they actually lie along a continuum. Dr. Elizabeth Stanley explains why an event that's stressful for one person can be traumatizing for another. With training, however, we can access agency, even in extreme-stress environments. In fact, anything conditioned through stress or trauma can, with intentionality and agency, be reconditioned and healed. The key is to use strategies that access not just the thinking brain but also the survival brain.

With stories from the women and men she has trained, as well as her own striking experiences with stress and trauma, Dr. Stanley gives us hands-on strategies we can use ourselves, whether we want to perform under pressure or heal from traumatic experience, while at the same time pointing our understanding in a new direction.

High quality, perfect color and very nice price!
Size: 14, Color: Brown, Size: 14, Color: Brown
I bought this shoes for my husband's Christmas present, so he didn't try yet. So far, the color is perfect! I feel like he can wear this shoes with different outfits, for the price it seems hight quality, it is not heavy at all. The shoe features a soft, comfortable lining and the sole is perfect because it is non-slip.

These fit very nicely, are comfortable, and work for my wide feet!
Size: 12 Wide, Color: Brown
Once I learned while shoe shopping in my youth that I needed wide-sized shoes, I wasn't able to easily choose from any shoes I saw in the store. I usually have to go find the wide widths and have to deal with the limited styles they have. Shopping online has been hit and miss, too. Sometimes, shoes are advertised as wide width, but end up still being too narrow. These shoes fit me just right. They were not too tight at the toes, gave good width at the arch, and the opening was large enough that I didn't have to undo every single lace just to get my foot in. They also look nice, and I'm sure will take a decent polish. Also, note that this does say it's an Oxford shoe, but it does have the open lacing and is more of a derby-style shoe. This also helps with sizing for my wide feet. If I didn't already have a pair of black shoes, I'd look at picking one of these up. My only reservation with these is that the soles are not dark-colored to complement a more formal style. I feel the white makes them a little more casual. The sole is also more transparent/opaque coloring at the heel and underneath, which you can kind of see-through, so keep that in mind. It's not fully clear, but is kind of transparent, which I was not expecting. I think it also shows where it picks up dirt as you wear it. Just more of a style cue one way or another. As a reference, I buy the 4E wide and Extra Wides in New Balance and Skechers. I also have a hard time getting any good fit in Nike shoes.
