DR. SHORS WANTS YOU TO LEARN MORE ABOUT YOUR OWN BRAIN AND HOW TO KEEP IT FIT FOR LIFE! Everyone experiences trauma. Whether it’s a specific harrowing event or a series of stressful moments that accumulate over time, trauma can echo and etch itself into our brains. In her new book, EVERYDAY TRAUMA, neuroscientist Dr. Tracey Shors discusses how our brains are inclined to ruminate on painful memories and how this process can interfere with our everyday lives, while making still more memories. She meanwhile presents effective tools for reducing repetitive thoughts that reinforce our everyday traumas. By understanding how our brains ruminate on the past, while training them with new mental and physical skills, we are better equipped to leave our pasts behind and live in a brighter future. Tracey J. Shors, Ph.D. is Distinguished Professor in Behavioral and Systems Neuroscience in the Department of Psychology and a member of the Center for Collaborative Neuroscience at Rutgers University. With 150 scientific publications in journals including Nature, Science, PNAS and Nature Neuroscience, her work has been featured in Scientific American, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and on NPR and CNN. Macmillan has published her new book: Everyday Trauma. Her research efforts were recently recognized with W. Horsley Gantt Medal from the Pavlovian Society for the "noble pursuit of truth."
