Season 2, Episode 13: Over the past 45 years, Dr. Peter Levine's pioneering work in the study of stress and trauma has shaped the way we understand our minds and our bodies. But what drove him to study psychology and medicine in the first place? And what does he think will be the next breakthrough in healing trauma?

Dr. Peter Levine is a senior fellow with The Meadows who is currently based in Southern California. And he'll join us again in the next episode for a deep dive into the Somatic Experiencing approach that he developed. Find more about Dr. Levine's work at www.traumahealing.org.
