I have a question about the episode Bessel van der Kolk – How Trauma Lodges in the Body, Revisited and the clip Trauma's Current Impact. I've heard you mention before that you don't agree with the claims from Bessel Van der Kolk in his book, "The Body Keeps the Score." I'm very curious to know more about your opinion and how you understand the relationship between trauma and the body, considering there is a whole field of somatic psychology that directly relates to some central claims by Van der Kolk.
