THE BODY KEEPS THE SCORE | Moving Forward - Book Review Club

Moving Forward: Book Review THE BODY KEEPS THE SCORE: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma About the Book: Trauma physically rewires the brain and body, keeping survivors trapped in a chronic loop of survival mode. Traditional talk therapy often falls short because traumatic memories are stored emotionally and somatically, not logically. True recovery requires body-centered approaches like EMDR, yoga and mindfulness to safely reset the nervous system. Author: Dr. Bessel van der Kolk is a world-renowned Dutch psychiatrist, researcher, and pioneer in the study of post-traumatic stress since the 1970s. He founded the Trauma Center in Massachusetts and has spent decades studying how extreme stress impacts human brain development and physical health. His work revolutionized the mental health field by shifting trauma treatment away from strictly talk-based therapy toward somatic, body-centered recovery. Presentor: Ms. Praveena Jaiprakash is a reviewer of the book. She is from Gurugram. She had graduated at Madras Medical College, Tamilnadu.
