Bessel van der Kolk has worked with trauma survivors for over 30 years. He shows us how traumatic stress literally rewires our brains, specifically areas dedicated to pleasure, enjoyment, control, and trust, and reveals how we can use this knowledge to heal ourselves.

“A compassionate, intelligent and transformational book about trauma.”

The Book Guide® Editor

Neither talking nor drug treatments have been completely effective. With stories of his personal experiences and those of experts around the world, The Body Keeps the Score sheds new light on the ways to get out of trauma by regulating the body and the mind through sports, drama, yoga, meditation and other paths to equilibrium. According to Dr. van der Kolk’s own research and that of others, The Body Keeps the Score offers proven alternatives to drugs and psychotherapy—and a way to regain lives.

Average Is the New Awesome (2020)

The author sums up my feelings brilliantly near the very end of the book. I, too, smile a lot, and I have those little crinkle lines by my eyes and around my mouth. And yes, most of the time, I'm a happy person, and I show it. But like her, "Sometimes I feel lonely. Sometimes I feel like a fraud. Sometimes I feel like a failure. Sometimes I feel unaccomplished. But in reality, I am none of those things." She is average. And average is awesome - something I need to remember.

Can’t Hurt Me (2018)

This is a book about David Goggins : a retired Navy SEAL and the only person to complete SEAL training, U.S. Army Ranger School, and Air Force Tactical Air Controller training. Each of those themselves are the hardest training courses in the world. Only exceptionally few complete each of them, he completed all of them. He also is a serious endurance athlete : an ultra-runner, a multiple ironman and former world-record holder for pull-ups. Definitely one of those rarefied serious freaks of nature. This book is a hard-hitting part-self-help, and part-motivational self-memoir. A personal recollection of an inspiring life. A life in which he was dealt as bad as hand as possible. But he overcame all the odds and became one of the hardest man in the world.
