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 was announced at the NAMASTE Expo held June 4-7 in Dallas, Texas. COVR Visionary Awards honor excellence in the Mind/Body/Spirit field, recognizing books, products, and programs that support healing, personal growth, and transformation.
"I am deeply honored that 'Clear Trauma Now' has been recognized for its vital contribution to the fields of trauma recovery and grief support," Dr. Swack said upon accepting the award. "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."
"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."
COVR is the trade association for the Mind/Body/Spirit marketplace, supporting its members through education, mentoring, discounts, and targeted networking. The COVR Visionary Awards are judged by both industry professionals and the general public, making them the only awards of their kind in the industry.
Dr. Swack's message, "Healing trauma takes hours, not years," has resonated with both healing professionals and the public. "Clear Trauma Now" reached #1 Best Seller status in the category of 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 Oct. 16, 2025 (hblu.org/media).
Dr. Swack will present a "Clear Trauma Now Live Healing" webinar Thursday evenings in September: Sept. 3 from 7 to 9 p.m. and Sept. 10, 17, and 24 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. EDT. Those interested can experience trauma healing in real time and learn how to do it themselves by visiting hblu.org/live-healing-experience for details.
This recognition underscores the growing importance of accessible trauma recovery methods that address deep-rooted emotional wounds. The award highlights the potential of Dr. Swack's HBLU methodology to offer rapid healing for individuals dealing with grief, loss, or chronic emotional distress, which could significantly impact the fields of psychology, grief counseling, and personal development.
