This was a dnf for me. The narrator imitating people's accents when reading quotations just got annoying and I didn't care enough to keep going.

informative medium-paced
Audiobook has many laughably bad accents, which detracts from the serious tone and feels disrespectful to those being quoted. A couple of positive references to Russell Brand, which felt a bit dated/off.
Otherwise, reasonably informative and a fair starting point for learning about somatic healing.
