  Book Summary of The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel Van der Kolk, M.D. 
   
  About 
   
  The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel Van der Kolk, M.D. • Trauma can occur anywhere, any time and to anyone. It takes on many forms – war, rape, crime, car accidents and so on. To the onlooker, it might appear that a traumatic event has a beginning, middle and end. But for those who have experienced it, the trauma just doesn’t end. It becomes a part of them, an inescapable horror present throughout their daily lives – an endless, visceral reminder of their terror and helplessness. In The Body Keeps the Score, Dr. Bessel Van der Kolk, one of the world’s preeminent psychiatrists specializing in post-traumatic stress, reveals how traditional methods of therapy – talk therapy and medications – are limited in their effectiveness to treat trauma. He takes us step-by-step through the physiological effects of trauma, and explains why the brain remembers trauma in a completely different way than it remembers everything else. Then, he takes us on a journey through holistic methods of treating trauma – methods that engage the body and soul together in order to rewire the brain and provide relief from the devastating effects of post-traumatic stress. 
   
  In this summary you will learn: 
   
  - Why trauma continues to profoundly affect individuals long after the instant of trauma has passed. 
   
  - Why it is essential that our systems of labeling and diagnosing trauma-based disorders continue to adjust and evolve with new research. 
   
  - Why traditional talk therapy and drug therapies must be supplemented with holistic healing methods such as EMDR, yoga and massage.

  Sounds extreme? Perhaps. But thinking it can't happen to you? Think again!

  Breathing Into the Light

  Pam struggled for many years on the sharp edges of suicide, grieving over betrayals and loss, in a vicious circle of denial, blaming and shaming. Fighting for her very life, with her back against the wall, she ventured forward despite fear and found a way to move beyond feeling a victim. She used her voice and took action, saving her own life. She chose to search for the light within and beyond the pain. She knew it was there. She confronted and overcame: 		* her codependency and her husband’s alcoholism 	* sexual abuse by her first psychotherapist	* fear of going beyond family rules and limits	* standing up to sexism, victim-blaming, and fear of owning her voice She moved beyond all that. Refusing to identify with the struggle itself, she used what she learned and became a therapist. A life-threatening injury and the gift of a book marrying science and spirituality emboldened her to end denial of mystical spiritual experiences she kept secret as a child yet had held her throughout her trials. She found she’d been guided throughout her entire life, even during times she felt so desperately alone. This brought her to explore her ancestral lineage, past lives and soul retrieval, experiencing spiritual guides and angels, leaving the reader with the awareness of the possibilities that lie within us all. Every one of us. She learned our struggles are our gifts, as long as we decide to move beyond them. As long as we choose to forgive. Both ourselves and those who hurt us. And we are never alone. She brought the light she saw to the battlefield that was her life. And recovered. While she would be the first to say she is an ordinary human being and that her life is not perfect, she found truth and authentic love within her struggles, reaching a deep peace for which we all yearn. And which is available to all. Every. Single. Person.
