I wish I could have read this book 11 years ago when I was a first time mom struggling with PPD and PTSD after a traumatic birth. 

This book was chock full of information about how our brains work and how crucial the first few months of our lives are. If this book had been around in 2012 it would have helped me better understand what my baby needed from me and how I needed help to give it to them. 

Even if you don’t think you’ve experienced anything traumatic in your life, you should still read this book.

A good listen. This is a good book for those who are just starting out on their healing journey. As for those with trauma who have already started getting involved with their healing (therapy, etc) this book may feel slightly redundant or not as informative. A good read nonetheless.
