The Mindbody Prescription

Healing the Body, Healing the Pain

De: John E. Sarno MD MD

Narrado por: Brian Holsopple

Learn how to relieve chronic pain for good with this life-changing New York Times bestselling book.

Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. Musculoskeletal pain disorders have reached epidemic proportions in the United States, with most doctors failing to recognize their underlying cause, leaving patients desperate–and still in agonizing pain. Dr. Sarno reveals how many painful conditions–including most neck and back pain, migraine, repetitive stress injuries, whiplash, and tendonitises–are rooted in repressed emotions, and shows how they can be successfully treated without drugs, physical measures, or surgery.

Broken down into three sections, Dr. Sarno takes the reader through the psychology, physical manifestations, and treatment of Mindbody Disorders.

Informative and accessible, The Mindbody Prescription is a revelatory book that gives hope to long-sufferers of physical pain–that they may regain a feeling of comfort and safety in their bodies.

"My life was filled with excruciating back and shoulder pain until I applied Dr. Sarno's principles, and in a matter of weeks my back pain disappeared. I never suffered a single symptom again...I owe Dr. Sarno my life."" - Howard Stern

Great build on 'Healing Back Pain'

A deeper look into the authors' theories and therapies, great to listen to as a reinforcment of his thesis.

great information, robot narrator

this book is incredible. it described so much in great detail with a writer who is obviously very experienced in his field. it's very compassionate and honest and goes into depth in ways that I didn't expect. there's a lot of discussion about feelings and facing them. surprising!

however, the narrator is robotic. no warmth, just clinical reading. it's a drawback because he just reads every single word at exactly the same Pace without pause or without inflection. It's easy to not listen because there is no emotional tone whatsoever to what he's reading.

A great subject with a mediocre presentation

Would you listen to The Mindbody Prescription again? Why?

I would listen to it again, as the examples in the book help with the healing process, and there's a lot of information that's difficult to process in the first listening.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Reading the book completely obliterated 10 years worth of pain, the only word I can use to describe it is 'incredible'

This is probably an important book

1. This is probably an important book. It sounds convincing to me. I would read more of his work.
2. I've listened to this book for the second time now. It is a good book. I will listen to it again.

life changing

Must read for everyone. Critically Important to your medical health. great book, a little long but great.
