The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel van der Kolk
informative
inspiring
medium-paced
5.0
I really appreciated this overview of Dr. van der Kolk's professional experience supporting people with their trauma, including strategies for coping with it. It's very approachable/ readable (not super jargon-y) & compassionate. Just be prepared for there to be several examples of some pretty grizzly trauma. I definitely spaced out my reading of this, as a result.
