Hello Antonella

To mark the end of what has been a difficult year, we feature our latest MindHealth360 event in collaboration with the How To Academy: The Body Keeps the Score: how trauma is rooted in our physiology, and what we can do about it with Dr. Bessel van der Kolk in conversation with Benjamin Fry.

And to mark the beginning of what we hope will be a better year, I have written a blog on reparenting -- what it means, how to do it, and why it's vital not only to our own mental health, but to that of our communities and societies, especially during tough times.

In this fascinating conversation between one of the world’s pre-eminent trauma experts, psychiatrist Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, and psychotherapist Benjamin Fry, we learn how traumatic stress, especially from childhood, can impact our brain, body, behaviour, relationships and mental health, long after the traumatic stress is over.

In this conversation:

- learn how trauma is rooted in our physiology
- understand how traumatic stress can impact our personality, behaviour, relationships and mental health
- find out about the latest developments in the nascent field of trauma research (which is surprisingly only 40 years old!)
- hear about some of the latest and best treatments for trauma
- learn about the different parts of the brain (limbic, reptilian, brain stem, prefrontal cortex) and their relationship to traumatic stress
- find out about mirror neurons and why they are essential to our sense of threat and safety
- understand the difference between a healthy response to traumatic stress and a maladaptive one (hint: it’s all about timing)
