Now, a conversation about techniques for recovering from trauma. The Greek word for ----injury,---- trauma refers to the lingering psychological wounds that adversely impact a person's mental and physical health long after their traumatic experience, whether it's warfare, natural disaster, sexual assaults, gun violence, life-threatening illness or a thousand other wrenching life crises. This summer, Tom spoke with Baltimore City Councilmen Zeke Cohen and Kristofer Burnett about a bill they have introduced to make Baltimore a “trauma responsive” city, recognizing that so many of our young people in particular are exposed to often unrelenting levels of violence that leads to trauma. Dr. James Gordon has been helping trauma victims like these and thousands of others around the world for more than 30 years. Dr. Gordon is a Harvard-trained professor of clinical psychiatry and family medicine at Georgetown Medical School, and the founder, in 1991, of the Center for Mind-Body Medicine in Washington, DC. His latest book is called The Transformation: Discovering Wholeness and Healing After Trauma.Dr. Gordon was scheduled to speak later this afternoon at the International Arts Mind Lab at the Brain Science Institute at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. But now, he joins Tom in Studio A, and listeners are welcome to join the conversation as well…
