forzasusan 's review for:

The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel van der Kolk
3.75
challenging informative slow-paced
I would really give this 3.5 stars because there are some challenges in this book that are hard to get past but I moved it up because the topic is very important and some of the different techniques were very interesting. However, I feel like there should be a huge warning at the beginning of the book because this book can be extremely hard if you are suffering from PTSD in any way. It is a bit ironic because this book clearly wants to be helpful for those suffering but some of the descriptions which may help those new to the field or topic to understand the importance but these passages would be very hard for folks suffering from PTSD.
