Are you a sufferer of PTSD? Is the condition seemingly endless and ruining your life? Do you want to be able to regain control of your mind and your body?

The Paper Tiger Syndrome is a guidebook on the journey of healing and self-repair, which demonstrates that the most direct way to overcome fear, stress, and trauma in your life is to regulate your physical body.
