The Coalition of Visionary Resources (COVR) has named 'Clear Trauma Now: The Powerful Solution for Getting Unstuck,' by Judith A. Swack, Ph.D., the 2026 Silver Medal Winner for Grief Books. The award, announced at the NAMASTE Expo June 4-7 in Dallas, recognizes excellence in the Mind/Body/Spirit field, honoring books that support healing, personal growth, and transformation.
'Clear Trauma Now' details healing practices Dr. Swack pioneered as part of her Healing from the Body Level Up™ (HBLU™) methodology, a comprehensive system designed to clear trauma at the conscious, unconscious, body, and soul levels. The book has been hailed as a significant contribution to the literature on trauma healing and energy psychology. Fred P. Gallo, Ph.D., Founder of Advanced Energy Psychology and Past President of the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology (ACEP), calls it 'an essential guide for anyone seeking profound healing.'
Dr. Swack expressed deep honor upon receiving the award, stating, 'Whether you are dealing with the loss of a loved one, a major life transition, or old emotional wounds that just won't heal, this award is a testament to the fact that there is a proven path to rapid and complete healing.' Her message that 'Healing trauma takes hours, not years' has resonated widely. The book reached #1 Best Seller status in Personal Success & Spirituality, #2 in Personal Transformation & Spirituality, #4 in Neuropsychology, and #4 in Hot New Releases in Counseling and Psychology within days of its publication on October 16, 2025 (hblu.org/media).
