At a time when chronic pain, anxiety, and other conditions have reached epidemic proportions, and the medical model is coming up short for so many of us, Mind Your Body shares the evidence-based practices that can help deliver readers from hopelessness to freedom. Most people who come to Nicole Sachs have exhausted all other paths to cope with their chronic back and bodily pain, IBS, sciatica, fibromyalgia, pelvic pain, long COVID, migraines, nerve inflammation, skin issues, anxiety and panic disorders, and many other health conditions. Sachs knows that these kinds of syndromes often don't originate from a physical source. Rather, they are fueled by trauma responses associated with deeply rooted psychological and emotional triggers that send the nervous system into fight or flight, activating the brain to send pain signals as a form of protection. In Mind Your Body, Sachs teaches readers about Mindbody medicine--which helped her overcome her own debilitating pain and dark prognosis--and how to turn inward using her revolutionary JournalSpeak practice that has enabled countless people to achieve striking mental, emotional, and physical healing. Sachs reveals that alleviating pain often begins with understanding one's stress, repressed emotions, unresolved trauma, and smaller daily frustrations are causing nervous system dysregulation. The solution lies in rewiring the brain's misguided reflex to protect us with pain.
