520    Learn the accessible and deeply compassionate practices 
       for healing trauma, known as the Five Strengths of applied
       Zen Buddhism. More than a philosophy, these body-based 
       practices are backed by modern neuroscience research, and 
       they can be applied by anyone suffering from trauma to 
       begin experiencing relief. Mindfulness teacher Sister Dang
       Nghiem, MD, is an inspiration for anyone who has ever 
       suffered from abuse, life-changing loss, severe illness, 
       or the aftermath of war. In Trauma, she brings together 
       her lived experience as a survivor, certified MD, and 
       ordained Buddhist teacher to offer a body-based, practical
       approach to healing from life's most difficult and painful
       experiences. Offering insights from Buddhist psychology 
       and simple somatic practices for tapping into our Five 
       Strengths--our inner faculties of self-trust, diligence, 
       mindfulness, concentration, and insight--Sister Dang 
       Nghiem's approach to trauma is radically accessible; it 
       begins with awareness of our breathing. With each chapter 
       containing a progression of guided reflections an 
       exercises, this book can be read as an adjunct to therapy 
       and a helpful guide for moving through trauma in the body.
       With the practice of mindfulness, we can access our 
       strength as survivors and our joy in being alive.
