Polyvagal Exercises for Safety and Connection: 50 Client-Centered Practices by Deb Dana

3.0

If I were to give polyvagal theory a rating it would be five stars ⭐️. Polyvagal theory is providing a paradigm shift for me in the way I view mental health, emotional resilience, and really all health in general. This particular book spends less time time talking about the theory itself and how it manifests in our bodies and minds, and spends more time describing mental exercises that engage the parasympathetic nervous system. Valuable for therapy, but I might need a bigger primer before this book is more valuable for me.
