The Breath That Moves Inside You

In a world where trauma has become a common explanation for distress, anxiety, and depression, conventional medical approaches often fall short in providing personalized care and listening to individual narratives. Manuela Heider de Jahnsen presents a unique perspective in her book, drawing from the ancient healing systems of Ayurveda and Yoga to navigate the complexities of symptoms, behavioral changes, and safe treatment options.Through her 40 years of dedicated work caring for traumatized patients, Manuela offers profound insights into human consciousness and a pathway to recovery. Going beyond the limitations of conventional medicine, Ayurveda and Yoga meet individuals where they are, providing personalized care and showing ways towards healing and renewal. In this transformative book, Manuela’s compassionate approach shines a light on the horizon, offering hope and guidance for those seeking a holistic understanding of trauma and a path to lasting well-being.
