In this book, I share my personal story with you and my discoveries about what our bodies, our “selves,” and our relationships need in order to heal from the wounds of life, especially those we sustain in childhood. I wouldn’t wish my beginnings on anyone. There was only one possible way for me to survive the brutality I endured and that was to shut myself down. Essentially, I was incapable of feeling. I was numb. Yes, my story is extreme, but it required me to leave no stone unturned to discover how to restore my humanity. I wanted to be able to really enjoy a long-term intimate sexual relationship with one person, to be able to tune into another’s emotional experience and empathize, to feel good and free in my body and spirit, to stand before groups and speak without fear, to age with vitality and grace, to look forward to adventures. I acquired all of these abilities during adulthood. As a young man embarking upon adulthood, I would have received an F in those subjects.

Inhis book, Healing the Wounds of Childhood, author and psychologist, Dr. Don St.John chronicles his life through the lens of the psychotherapist. His fearlessyet illustrative depiction of his trauma is commendable, as is his journey to athriving life. In many ways, Dr. St. John's courage is a demonstration of thecathartic nature of writing a narrative that extends to the reader. Inaddition, Dr. St. John has an uncanny ability to give you the perspective of achild through their lens and then through the perspective of the adult. Histerminology is user-friendly, while elaborating on several theories of humanbehavior. This girl loves a happy ending and this book delivers, which isperhaps one of the most miraculous parts. It is not only about his own journey,but it is also about the journey and discovery of healing. This book isincredibly well-written and engaging. It might even be beneficial to use in acourse or presentation to demonstrate the theoretical terms that are oftendifficult to exemplify to psychology students. ��Story Monsters Ink, April, 2016,�Reviewer: Shirin Zarqa-Lederman, MA, MS, LCADC, BCPC, LPC�
Critique: Impressively well written, organizedand presented, "Healing the Wounds of Childhood" is as compelling aread as it is informed and informative, thoughtful and thought-provoking. Veryhighly recommended for community and academic librarySelf-Help/Self-Improvement collections.�Small Press Bookwatch: February 2016,�James A. Cox, Editor-in-Chief

About the Author
Don St John, Ph.D., is a psychotherapist, somatic-relational teacher, coach, public speaker, and author. He is an authorized Continuum Movement teacher and Hellerwork Structural Integration practitioner and trainer. He has taught and given presentations in the US, Canada, New Zealand, and Brazil. Don brings two general qualifications to the authorship of Healing the Wounds of Childhood. The first, and perhaps most important, is that he has traveled the territory he describes, and he has accomplished an arguably miraculous level of personal change in one lifetime. As a psychotherapist, he works in a style that requires deep empathy and attunement with his patients. It is a level of emotional presence that he could not even have understood or imagined when he began his healing journey. As a Continuum Movement teacher, he teaches fluid movement. Again, this would have been unimaginable to him three decades ago. Thus, he has clearly walked what he talks. His second general qualification is that he has been immersed in both the psychotherapeutic and somatic therapy worlds for the past forty-seven years. His roots were in traditional clinical psychology, but earlyon, he realized from his own experience that the body must be included. Thus began his journey in both the psychotherapeutic and somatic realms. Dr. St John studied Gestalt Therapy at the LA Gestalt Therapy Institute and Neo-Reichian therapy with Drs. Allan Darbonne and Jack Lee Rosenberg; the Psychology of Selves and Voice Dialogue Method with Drs. Hal and Sidra Stone; Hakomi with Dr. Ron Kurtz; Coherence Therapy with Dr. Bruce Ecker; AEDP with Dr. Diana Fosha; and CIMS with Dr. Albert Sheldon and Beatriz Winstanley. He has taken immersion courses and core training in Dr. Sue Johnson's Emotionally-Focused Couple's Therapy. He is certified in Somatic Experiencing, the work of Dr. Peter Levine. He has also studied cranio-sacral therapy and for twenty years has been studying and practicing Continuum Movement developed by Emilie Conrad and Susan Harper. Don's doctoral dissertation, written at the Western Institute for Social Research, focused on the consequences of and recovery from relational maltreatment in early childhood. He lives in Salt Lake City with his wife of thirty years, Diane, co-founder of Paths of Connection. They have been teaching together for twenty-five years.

Somatic Therapies, the Key to Healing Childhood Wounds
By Julene T. Weaver
Healing the Wounds of Childhood is an excellent introduction to somatic therapies and their history intertwined with psychotherapy. Don St. John, a PhD level psychologist, has a rich background and uses his own history to show how integrating the body into therapy is a key component necessary to change. I appreciated his explanations of stress, how our birth affects us, and how trauma, not just the big T or PTSD, is derived from many experiences including our primary birth experience and our time in the womb. Like him I started out with traditional therapy, like him I began to explore body work and found that this work through the body accentuated my growth, like him I came to a similar conclusion, "I could have stayed in talk therapy forever and would not have explored the depths I have managed to reach once I included the somatic therapies in my healing regimen. As important and valuable as good psychotherapy is, it is not enough." He has an excellent chapter that defines sensory motor amnesia (SMA) and how it equals the chronic tension so many experience. I strongly recommend this book to therapists and the average person on a healing journey.

Superb Book of Self Discovery
By Grace
The wisdom in this book came to me at a pivotal time in my life. Thank you! Once again I"m amazed at the human spirit--how we collectively and individually evolve despite childhood scripts. I was reminded yet again how important it is to pay attention to our emotional tones and how to participate with them at a cellular level through bodywork. I was also thrilled reading about Emilie Conrad's work in Continuum. I too was personally effected by her teachings of the fluid system and have not found anything as profound as the breath, sound and movement Emilie embodied.
Don St John's commitment to life a joyous life has inspired me to keep on keeping on. His book is a reminder of our "birthright" to live a healthy, integrated, shame free life. I have deep appreciation for the author and I recommend this book for all those eager to find insights, tools and inspiration for a meaningful life. Bravo!

By Monica Faux-Kota
Dr.Don St John has done an excellent job of interweaving his life story with disciplines and practices that he has found to be beneficial for living a thriving life. I appreciate his professional combination of psychology, science, physiology, somatics, abundant love, and spirituality. Along with his personal story.
Your childhood could be considered 'normal' and you will still benefit from his belief that we need a "new model" of what it means to be healthy. A holistic model that includes our body fluids, cells, and tissues just as much as our mind, heart, guts, physical & emotional body, and spirituality.
And if you are a mother or father you will gain a deeper understanding of the importance of your role. As a mother, and after reading Don's book, I am even more convinced of what I have intuitively known my whole life.
In order for children to effortlessly remain in their wholeness, their essence, and thrive as individuals, their mother and father must unbind their wholeness, heal, grow, and thrive while they are living. And it is never too late to start this journey.
Our children are made from our cells and body fluids, and while they represent our pure hearts and souls, they are also deeply affected by our personal story of childhood wounds and trauma, our ancestral baggage, and our current ways of functioning.
They inherit our inhibitions, to some extent, on an energetic and biological level upon conception. Through our growth we liberate them. Such a noble aspiration: to liberate our children via our personal growth.
And Dr. Don St John offers valuable exercises for obtaining this growth in his book.
Three words to summarize this book: hope, liberation, transformation
