List of Books, Therapies & Resources for Healing Chronic Illness and Other Effects of Trauma (Free PDF)
These are the books, therapies and resources I wish I'd known about when I was a family doctor and when I first started getting sick with what would turn out to be a disabling chronic illness. This compilation includes the most helpful resources I’ve found over the past 20 years of learning about the science of adversity, why it's not psychological and how to heal the effects of trauma.

International Children's Book Day
International Children's Book Day occurs on April 2nd - this article highlights two books written by community partners in Plymouth County. Whether it’s a teacher, staff member, or character in a book, children need to feel connected to something to help them cope with the various stressors that they have going on in their lives. “Children can often feel alone and isolated and when they can relate to characters in a book, it helps them feel less alone,” Sarah Cloud, Director of Social Work...

Re: International Children's Book Day
I'm glad today is Children's Book day. I posted several years ago my award winning middle-grade adventure fantasy, The King of Average. It was on the best of lists in 2016 for Kirkus Reviews and Indie Reader and has since won two gold medals from Children's Literary Classics. One psychologist called it "Self-Helpful fiction." It's also a great read-aloud book. Here's the post: https://www.pacesconnection.com...of-childhood-neglect

Drop Everything and Pick Up this New Trauma Book Immediately—It's That Good
Yesterday I logged onto Goodreads, the website that tracks the books you and your friends are reading, and I noticed that an old college classmate had marked a book "to-read": What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing From Complex Trauma by Stephanie Foo. "Ooh a new trauma book?" I thought, my interest piqued. Turns out this book was very new—the newest. It was released on the auspicious 2/2/22, mere days ago. I wondered if her story and insights would be boring since I've been spending at...

An Interesting new book
I thoroughly enjoyed reading "DAMAGED: Childhood Trauma, Adult Illness, and the Need for a Health Care Revolution," (UTP, University of Toronto Press, 2021) a new book by two traditional academic psychiatrists from Canada, Dr. Robert Maunder and Jonathan Hunter. I found the book to be a good read on many levels: It has a clear introduction to ACEs, child maltreatment, child abuse trauma and its lifelong impact and what trauma informed care is. It is a relaxed insight into good, dedicated,...
