Kiara Jacoby’s Reviews > The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma > Status Update

This book is very interesting, very academic. I’m finally at the “solutions” aspect of the book after taking a needed break from the text. Glad I am taking the effort to pick it back up, but it’s certainly dense. But, I can tell it’s genuinely researched and now reading about solutions with the background of knowing the brain mechanisms of trauma is very enlightening.

This book is very academic, talking about parts of the brain and how they impact our body and emotional responses to trauma. Really great insight in to how to the brain and trauma work. Examples are focused on veterans and I don’t see much intersectionality considered yet in the book
