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

informative reflective

4.5

I loved it. It’s incredibly written and definitely struck a lot of chords with me. I feel seen and I have found many more words and treatments to put a face to what I have been feeling. The writing is digestible, I like the interspersing of brain science along with patient experiences and other information. It’s not too heavy on any one thing and although it did trigger flashbacks a couple of times.
