Third Spaces: Book Discussion

About the event

The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk explores how trauma lives not just in our memories, but in our bodies—shaping how we feel, relate, and respond long after the event has passed. Blending neuroscience, clinical stories, and compassion, the book invites readers to understand trauma through a lens of healing, resilience, and reconnection.

Join a facilitated discussion with a Happy Camper facilitator for a thoughtful, supportive conversation about the themes of the book. Together, we’ll reflect, ask questions, and explore how these insights show up in real life—all within a safe, welcoming space.

Whether you’ve read every page or are just getting started, you’re warmly welcome to the circle.
