Description
When words falter, the body remembers, and it longs to move...
The Body Remembers Her Name: Trauma Recovery, Reclaiming the Feminine, and Restoring Joy Through Samba and Storytelling is a grounding guide for women seeking embodied healing from trauma. Rooted in Afro-Brazilian wisdom, myth, and dance movement therapy, this book offers guidance for a spiral journey back to wholeness through rhythm, ritual, and joy.
Blending mythological stories, somatic psychology, and the healing power of samba, this book demonstrates how trauma silences women's voices and fragments the self, and how movement can restore presence, voice, and vitality.
Inside this book, you will learn how to:
? Understand trauma in the body, why words alone can't heal, and how the nervous system holds memory.
? Reclaim your feminine power through myths, archetypes, and movement rituals that honor women's ancestral wisdom.
? Use samba as therapy with beginner-friendly practices that ground, awaken, and reconnect you to joy.
? Blend science with soul, drawing from neuroscience, somatic psychology, and dance movement therapy
alongside cultural storytelling.
? Transform silence into expression, learning to embody resilience, release shame, and transition from survival
into celebration
More than just another self-help manual, this resource is a living dance of descent, healing, and return. Each chapter presents stories, exercises, and practices to help you gently reinhabit your body and reclaim joy as sacred medicine.
The Body Remembers Her Name invites you to rise, dance, and come home to your body, rhythm, and untamed spirit.
