Your Feet Face Forward


Book Description

Your Feet Face Forward narrates my holistic journey back from a debilitating spinal nerve tumor to abundant health and happiness. Using the tools of yoga, meditation, visualization, and a change in philosophical perspective, I was able to heal while completely sidestepping traditional medicine.

Over a period of months, the MRI scans showed the tumor shrinking until it was finally gone. My life was forever transformed, and the powerful momentum of healing launched me onto a new path. I obtained certification as a Hatha, Vinyasa, Restorative, Yin, and Prenatal Yoga instructor and became a yoga teacher trainer. I have since shared my story and inspired positive change, empowering thousands of lives through my classes, yoga teacher training, workshops, and seminars. Your Feet Face Forward can guide you to find peace with what is and inspire you to move forward with intention; harnessing your power.

In this groundbreaking book, trauma expert J. Eric Gentry builds upon the pioneering insights of such luminaries as neuroscientist Stephen Porges, Judith Herman and Bessel van der Kolk to introduce Forward-Facing Trauma Therapy (FFTT), the next evolutionary leap in the treatment of traumatic stress.

Instead, FFTT addresses trauma and its destructive symptomology at its sourceour overcharged autonomic nervous systems and hypervigilant threat response resulting from our adaptation to painful past experiences. Dr. Gentry provides a step-by-step guide for implementing a three-pronged methodology and explains how and why the techniques work so effectively. He also demonstrates how anyone experiencing stress can apply FFTT to achieve immediate change and an enduring sense of joy, self-worth, and personal integrity.
