The Body Keeps the Score: Bessel van der Kolk and Dawson Church in Conversation

​Bessel van der Kolk MD spends his career studying how children and adults adapt to traumatic experiences and has translated emerging findings from neuroscience and attachment research to develop and study a range of treatments for traumatic stress in children and adults.

Here he and Dawson discuss:

* The psychological trauma as a physical not just a psychological condition

* How after each war there has been an upsurge in interest in PTSD but it then dies down

* Ways the body keeps the score

* Exploration of how PTSD affects every system: hormones, brain function, immunity

* Treatments such as EMDR and EFT
