By Judith Swack, PhD

What if unresolved trauma underlies a wider range of presenting issues than we have realized? And what if it has a precise structure of disruption in the mind, body, and soul that can be identified and cleared? This is the animating question behind Clear Trauma Now: A Powerful Solution for Getting Unstuck, a comprehensive and clinically rich guide by Dr. Judith Swack. David Gruder, in his foreword, issues an invitation: “Welcome to the wizarding world of Dr. Judith Swack”. This is apt, for what Swack presents is an integrated healing philosophy and system spanning immunology, energy psychology, depth psychology and soul-level intervention, illustrated throughout with many stories of remarkable and rapid healing. 

Dr. Swack brings formidable credentials to this work. Trained as a PhD biochemist and immunologist, she has spent decades as a body-mind healer, developing what she calls Healing from the Body Level UpTM (HBLUTM). HBLU is a holistic psychotherapy system drawing on neurolinguistic programming (NLP), energy psychology modalities including meridian tapping, applied kinesiology, craniosacral therapy and Enneagram-based personality work, integrated with shamanic and transpersonal perspectives. She has presented her work and the science underlying energy psychology interventions at the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology (ACEP) conferences since 2001. This book shows clinical experience built over decades and is both educational and practical. It aims to explain the structure of trauma and its effects across all levels of human being, and to offer specific protocols for clearing it.
