Books! I loooove them. And they really can have a profound impact on your life. In this week's episode of the podcast, SelfKind with Erica Webb (that's me!) I'm sharing five of my favourite non-fiction books that can support you with navigating what it is to be human.
From making you feel less alone, to illuminating the dark path of persistent pain, these books are some of the best and I hope you love them.
The books mentioned in this podcast episode are as follows (note: none of these links are affiliate links)
1. Explain Pain Supercharged by Lorimer Mosley and David Butler. Check out their books and other resources here.
2. Anchored by Deb Dana. All about getting to know your nervous system grounded in polyvagal theory. You can check it out here.
3. Burnout by Emily and Amelia Nagoski. One of my absolute faves. You can find it here.
4. The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel Van Der Kolk. Wondering how your body and mind interact and how your body ‘holds’ trauma? This book is your go-to. Check it out here.
