BOOK REVIEW
The Body Keeps the Score
by Bessel van der Kolk
Still the book I recommend most when someone is ready to understand why insight alone hasn't been enough to heal them.
Van der Kolk lays out, with decades of clinical research, how trauma is stored in the body and why the path back to safety has to include the body, not just the mind.
If you read one book on this list, this is the one I'd start with.
