This book was extremely interesting. I learned so much about the connection between trauma, the brain, and our emotions. This will better help me support my students

Having more knowledge of the brain science behind trauma, along with narrative descriptions of the impact of trauma was very informative, and felt so important as we are seeing so many students dealing with trauma. Very interesting class!
