PTSD Books and Resources
PTSD can happen to anyone, in fact about 6 of every 100 people will have PTSD at some point in their lives.
Whether a Veteran or a civilian who has experienced a traumatic event, PTSD symptoms can take a toll on your mental health and overall well-being.
In the book The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind And Body In The Healing Of Trauma, I’ve learned about the impact these difficult memories can have not just on your mind but the body as well. The author, Bessel van der Kolk, M.D., dives into the why and how PTSD can have such detrimental effects on our lives. But more importantly, he shares proven techniques to free you from it’s pain.
“For real change to take place, the body needs to learn that the danger has passed and to live in the reality of the present.” – Bessel van der Kolk, M.D.,
If you or someone you know suffers from PTSD, I highly recommend picking up a copy of The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind And Body In The Healing Of Trauma.
