具体描述
Our earliest experiences shape our lives far down the road, and What Happened to You? provides powerful scientific and emotional insights into the behavioral patterns so many of us struggle to understand.
“Through this lens we can build a renewed sense of personal self-worth and ultimately recalibrate our responses to circumstances, situations, and relationships. It is, in other words, the key to reshaping our very lives.”―Oprah Winfrey
This book is going to change the way you see your life.
Have you ever wondered "Why did I do that?" or "Why can't I just control my behavior?" Others may judge our reactions and think, "What's wrong with that person?" When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question.
Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”
Here, Winfrey shares stories from her own past, understanding through experience the vulnerability that comes from facing trauma and adversity at a young age. In conversation throughout the book, she and Dr. Perry focus on understanding people, behavior, and ourselves. It’s a subtle but profound shift in our approach to trauma, and it’s one that allows us to understand our pasts in order to clear a path to our future―opening the door to resilience and healing in a proven, powerful way.
用户评价
##前本部关于developmental trauma的neurobiology 太实用了，实例也很有力。后半部关于response/intervention貌似有些redundant且草草了事泛泛而谈的感觉
##I believe so strongly in the “What happened to you” approach; it avoids the judgment of “What’s wrong with you?”
简体版即将上市，大家对书名有什么建议吗？
##一个个心碎的故事，早期创伤分析.
##Super readable because of its conversational style. Maybe not entirely earth-shattering, but great stuff for sure.
##绝不原谅施虐者
##非常科学系统的分析了trauma以及影响，不像一般的self-help书只给可以简单复制的小帖士。最后一段直接给我听哭了。
##what happened to you is what is happening to you
##Rhythms. Heartbeat. >Walking, dancing, and singing. - The natural world has reassuring rhythms that can anchor our days. As we walk, we tune in to our own natural rhythms and are able to have a break from the noise and stimulation of our busy lives. Stress can help build resilience – in the right doses.
