Klappentext

Your symptoms are not here to punish you. They are your most loyal friends, gently calling your name. Until now, you may have thought that physical pain was a malfunction. A nuisance. You probably didn't think it could be an invitation to finish processing your old grief. Or to start setting boundaries. Or to address the shame that's gripping you. After reading this book, you'll see how physical pain becomes the conversation your body has been trying to have with you all along. Your Body Remembers What You're Trying to Forget is a somatic field guide to 122 physical conditions across 11 body systems. Just look up your specific health challenge - tension headaches, TMJ, IBS, hip tightness, eczema, autoimmune flares, insomnia, and far beyond - and begin there. For each symptom, you'll find:The emotional pattern driving the symptom A specific somatic exercise to address that part of the body and release what's stored A reframe to shift the old pattern Holistic healing recommendations, including supplements and herbs A journaling prompt to help you see how this applies to you This is a bottom-up approach - when we work with the body and nervous system rather than against them, the body can tap into its natural ability to heal. You don't have to figure it out alone anymore. I drew on the lineages of Peter Levine, John Sarno, Stephen Porges, Wilhelm Reich, Louise Hay, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and decades of mind-body research. When you're ready to listen to your body and learn its language, this book shows you how.
