Psychosomatics of Childhood Trauma: How to Listen to Your Child and Help Them Become Healthy

This book is about parents. And about the children we are raising right now. It is also about the children we once were. About the secrets locked inside our smallness. About the pain passed down through generations. About wounds inflicted unintentionally and unconsciously, yet always very, very painfully.

This book is about changing the approach to raising children that will open new relationships with the child and with oneself. About how to heal oneself and learn to speak with the child in a language they understand — love, support, and trust. And that a simple "I cherish you so much, tell me what happened and how you feel" has much greater power than a scream and an irritated remark thrown out.

There are no perfect parents, but there are ways to create a happy childhood for your child that they will remember with warmth and joy, and which will support them in their adult life and help them realize all their dreams, goals, and talents.

The book is based on data from modern research in the fields of epigenetics, psychogenealogy, scientific psychosomatics, neurophysiology of children and adults, as well as the many years of professional experience of its author, pediatrician and psychosomatologist Ekaterina Tur.
