4.5
The first third of book spent more on the author's case studies through the years to explain the power of past trauma in our spontaneous and subconscious behaviors, that could cripple our ability to function in society.
Then he kicked off the variety of treatment possibilities that have either been proven today, or have a lot of promise. The book wanted to showcase what is available besides pharmaceuticals today - from EMDR to neurofeedback, theater and even yoga, it may be promising for someone who needs more tools than their prescription meds.
Even if we're not seeking help ourselves, it's a fascinating insight into how our whole body responds to our life experiences, traumatic or otherwise
