Training military personnel in self-regulation tools lessens the incidence of combat shock and the potential for spreading traumatic reactions among the troops. These same tools can be used after leaving military service to spare veterans, their families and community from unnecessary suffering, thus saving financial resources and helping society better support its veterans. This book provides:

  • Emotional first aid tools for active personnel to release stress within the context of military training
  • Tools to practice resiliency and to lessen the physical impact of military training
  • Help to identify wide-ranging symptoms of psycho-biological and emotional trauma beyond the conventional definition of PTSD
  • Tools for commanders to enhance group morale
  • Guidelines to recognize a collective trauma vortex, and how to lessen trauma-driven violence and the resulting drive for revenge
  • Examples on how to address a collective trauma vortex from a military point of view.
