In this New York Times bestseller, Brain Shock, a pioneering researcher transforms our understanding of trauma and proposes a daring new model for healing. Combat-related pain is dealt with by veterans and their families; Molestation has affected one in five Americans; One in four kids was raised by alcoholics; Every third couple has experienced physical violence. Annette Purseley has worked with survivors for more 5years. She uses recent scientific developments in The Body Keeps the Score to demonstrate how trauma reshapes both the body and the brain, compromising a person's capacity for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust. She investigates cutting-edge treatments like neurofeedback, meditation, sports, acting, and yoga that use the brain's inherent neuroplasticity to open up new avenues for recovery. The Body Keeps the Score, which is based on Annette Purseley research as well as the research of other leading experts, reveals the tremendous power of our relationships to heal and hurt, as well as the new hope for reclaiming lives.
