What the Body Remembers

On the morning of September 11, 2001, Shanna Sukhnanan walked into Lower Manhattan expecting an ordinary workday. What followed would alter the course of her life in ways she could not yet understand.This deeply personal memoir traces her journey from surviving the collapse of the World Trade Center to living with the hidden, long-term costs of trauma, physical, emotional, and invisible. Through motherhood, career, wellness, and faith, she learns that survival is not a single moment but a lifelong process of listening to the body, honoring resilience, and redefining strength.Both a testament to endurance and a call to awareness, this book offers an intimate look at what it truly means to make it out alive and how healing can unfold long after the headlines fade.
