"In "The Body Keeps the Score," Dr. Bessel van der Kolk would likely explain dissociation and the loss of self-regulation as core components of how the mind and body respond to and hold onto the imprints of trauma. He argues that trauma is not just a psychological event; it's a physical and neurobiological one, and these two phenomena are a direct result of the brain's attempt to cope with unbearable experiences." — Sep 16, 2025 09:06AM

Brian’s Quotes

“All men dream; but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.”
― Bear Grylls, A Survival Guide for Life

“It won’t always go your way, so you can’t get trapped in this idea that just because you’ve imagined a possibility for yourself that you somehow deserve it. Your entitled mind is dead weight. Cut it loose. Don’t focus on what you think you deserve. Take aim on what you are willing to earn!”
― David Goggins, Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds
