The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel van der Kolk

challenging informative sad

5.0

What if we looked at trauma as the root of a number of behaviors vs over medicating and ignoring the self? What if we looked for ways the self is trying to express what has happened vs. suppressing outbursts and extreme behavior? An amazing book of a career of neuropsychology on trauma and what can be done to treat and integrate it into someone’s life.
