Keeping Score
There is a phenomenal book written by Dr Bessel van der Kolk, psychiatrist and founder of the Trauma Research Foundation, called The Body Keeps the Score. This book has had a profound impact on me, both personally and professionally.
I’ve yet to meet an engaged and informed counsellor, bodywork practitioner, yoga teacher, or similar who hasn’t read it and come away inspired. Most have gained knowledge that sparks a beautiful butterfly effect, improving their practice and deepening their own sense of self.
