About
What causes people to continually relive what they most want to forget, and what treatments could help restore them to a life with purpose and joy? Here, Dr Bessel van der Kolk offers a new paradigm for effectively treating traumatic stress. Neither talking nor drug therapies have proven entirely satisfactory. With stories of his own work and those of specialists around the globe, The Body Keeps the Score sheds new light on the routes away from trauma - which lie in the regulation and syncing of body and mind, using sport, drama, yoga, mindfulness, meditation and other routes to equilibrium.

Never mind the Noise!
On this day in 1924, the "Happy Birthday" song was first published in a songbook. Can you even imagine how lame birthday parties were before this banger dropped? They must have been terrible!
Sisters Patty and Mildred Hill crafted the catchy melody, originally titled "Good Morning to All," for the children in Patty's kindergarten class. However, the genius who penned the birthday-specific lyrics remains unknown.
Perhaps this treasure was a collaborative effort, like Drake's "One Dance," which had a whole eight writers credited. Talk about a team effort!
Or maybe "Happy Birthday" was the work of a lone birthday enthusiast who wanted to leave their mark on birthdays forever.
