Have you ever wondered how trauma affects your body and mind, even when you think you have moved on? How it can shape your relationships, your career, your health, and your identity? How it can be passed down through generations and cultures? If you have, then you might want to read What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing from Complex Trauma by Stephanie Foo.

This is a searing and enlightening memoir by an acclaimed journalist who was diagnosed with complex PTSD at age thirty, after years of suffering from panic attacks, depression, and anxiety. Complex PTSD is a condition that occurs when trauma happens continuously, over the course of years. For Foo, it was the result of being abandoned by both of her parents as a teenager, after enduring years of physical and verbal abuse and neglect.

Foo thought she had moved on from her past, but her diagnosis revealed how her trauma continued to haunt her in every aspect of her life. She found limited resources to help her, so she decided to heal herself by investigating the science behind complex PTSD and trying various innovative therapies. She also embarked on a journey of discovery, tracing her family history in Malaysia and exploring the effects of immigrant trauma on her community in San Jose, California.

In this deeply personal and thoroughly researched account, Foo interviews scientists and psychologists, uncovers family secrets, and experiments with different modalities of healing. She learns that you don't move on from trauma--but you can learn to move with it. She also shares her insights and wisdom on how to cope with complex PTSD and how to reclaim agency from trauma.

What My Bones Know is a powerful and hopeful memoir that will resonate with anyone who has experienced trauma or wants to understand its impact. It is also a compelling narrative that reckons with the hold of the past over the present, the mind over the body, and the ability of one woman to transform her pain into strength. If you are looking for a book that will inspire you, challenge you, and move you, then you should read What My Bones Know by Stephanie Foo.
