2 books on trauma and healing

One sub-genre that I want to read more of this year is trauma, healing, and the psychology surrounding those two subjects

Here are 2 books that I want to read to achieve that goal:

1. The Body Keeps the Score by Van der Kolk

> delves into how trauma deeply affects both the body and mind, illustrating how experiences such as abuse or violence can alter brain functioning and lead to physical symptoms. Additionally, the book provides valuable insights into therapeutic methods aimed at facilitating healing from such trauma

2. The Origins of You by Vienna Pharaon

> explores the complexities of identity formation, examining how childhood experiences, family dynamics, and societal influences shape who we become, and guiding for fostering self-awareness and personal growth
