More from Bessel van der Kolk
"Trauma is a fact of life. It does not, however, have to be a life sentence."
"The single most important issue for traumatized people is to find a sense of safety in their own bodies."
"We have learned that trauma is not just an event that took place sometime in the past; it is also the imprint left by that experience on mind, brain, and body."
"As long as we perceive threats, our brains will respond as if we are in danger."
