The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel van der Kolk
I honestly don’t think I can rate this book but it was very well-written and taught me A LOT about the effects of trauma
I read this for work but also I don’t think I would’ve been able to read it if it wasn’t for work, just because the content is really heavy and a lot — I had to take sooo many breaks while reading this (and ultimately I listened to the audiobook version of it at the end)
But this was overall a very enlightening read, I definitely gained more understanding about trauma and that ultimately helps me understand the importance of my job’s purpose !
