  • @ariana42
    I wish i can sit in a room and talk to Dr. Levine about dreams, personal experiences and life. I realized I followed him for years and the podcast is such a treat because it is more of his personal journey and not just a teaching, really appreciated
  • @The_Jen_Reilly
    Thank you! I have a significant amount of trauma in my life that has impacted my life on every level; emotionally, physically, mentally, spiritually, relationally, financially. I have read The Body Keeps the Score. Phenomenal book!! I'm excited to read your book and learn more about your work. Thank you, Max, for bringing on Peter.

  • @andreabuntpercy
    Thank you for the Voo exercise, from someone with frequent anxiety. It made a difference right away, so is a great example of somatic work.
  • @kathyowen3847

  • @user-zb8lz9vs2d
    I grew up in poverty, spent a lot of money on certifications and my degree -40 plus years as a body therapist and I can’t afford what I’m trained in. My wish is that mite generous scholarships are offered for those who wish to serve a community which is struggling financially these days -it’s traumatic not to be able to afford what I need. Love the work so so much-doing what I can on my own 💗
  • @SuLawn
    Thank you God, there are people who care. And love. 🤗🙂🙏❤️
  • @itsjustme9354
    The issues are in the tissues so true. Great talk really enjoyed it.
  • Thank you indeed for this interesting dialogue. I will definitely read P.Levine‘s autobiographical book. Inspires me to start my own story -weite-down. I read van-der-Kalk‘s THE BODY KERPS THE SCORE many times. It is rich and helped also a lot! Loved the conversation. Especially about the SHADOW. I already thought I am crazy! I see that too. I am also intuitive.
