Workbook: The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

Summary

To many people, trauma is something that happens to soldiers and refugees, far away and out of sight. But in fact, trauma is the single greatest threat to public health and well-being that America has ever seen. As humans, we are exposed to a horde of trauma, from physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, to neglect, accidents, and the list can go on and on. And while the naked eye can see the immediate effects of that trauma, it is usually the long-term trauma we carry that bogs us down and infects every aspect of our lives, whether we are aware of it or not.

Workbook: The Body Keeps the Score not only does it provide all of van der Kolk's teachings about trauma in a clear, comprehensive, and condensed manner—without missing anything important!—but it also allows you to delve deeper into the book's concepts and explore your own personal journey with trauma while prompting you to take action to create a lasting impact.

In Workbook: The Body Keeps the Score, among other things, you will get:

• The latest research on psychiatric theory and practice from the world's leading trauma specialist.
• Insights into the different methods of treatment, including skills and tools for healing trauma.
• Comprehensive yet simplified and straightforward chapter-by-chapter summaries, each ending with concise key takeaways.
• An immersive experience that bridges the gap between the book's teachings and your own life.

The messages in this book contain information for everyone. As van der Kolk says, for the fight against trauma to be successful, it needs to be a collective effort. Don't miss out on the wisdom and awareness this book offers. Let's all work toward creating a trauma-free generation.
