The Divided Mind
John E. Sarno
Category: Psychology & Philosophy,
In his groundbreaking, perennially popular book that helped change the way we think about our health – now repackaged for a new generation of readers – Dr Sarno offers a guide to the range of psychosomatic (mindbody) disorders,Β which can include chronic pain, carpal tunnel, sexual dysfunction, IBS and migraine. He describes their psychology, including how knowledge and awareness can have a restorative impact. Paving the way for bestsellers likeΒ The Body Keeps the Score, Sarno was among the first to explore the interaction between the conscious mind and repressed emotional pain in the unconscious mind that can beΒ atΒ the root of such disorders.Β
