About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Does it feel like your body is failing you? It doesn't have to be this way.

The thread that binds us is chronic pain, and conditions that limit us in countless ways. We live a shadow life, isolated by our pain. This struggle impacts our confidence at work, in our relationships, and leaves us vulnerable to depression. You may have tried different drugs, surgeries, alternative and holistic procedures, hoping to find a hint of relief. Too often, that relief doesn’t come.

In Mind Your Body, psychotherapist Nicole Sachs shows us a new way of understanding and tackling chronic pain by nurturing your mind–body connection. With compassionate guidance, she helps us to understand that pain is an invitation to recognise the inner truths that have been waiting for our acknowledgement.

In this groundbreaking book, Nicole Sachs explores the emotional depth of pain, by exploring common mini traumas such as shame, grief, suppressed emotions and unresolved issues. Through practical tools, journal prompts and self-inquiry, she offers us deeply healing ways to truly understand our body-mind, get to the bottom of our chronic condition and live life to the full once more.

Critic reviews

Nicole Sachs deeply understands the connection between trauma, the body and chronic illness, and her transformative program can help anyone suffering from chronic pain live a better life. (ARIANNA HUFFINGTON, founder & CEO, Thrive Global)
When faced with chronic symptoms, I personally applied Nicole’s insights to unveil my path to healing. This book serves as a transformative road map, offering actionable steps that promise liberation and empowerment. (GABBY BERNSTEIN, #1 New York Times bestselling author)
The work I did with Nicole has been life-changing. When three separate back sur­geries didn’t resolve my pain, Nicole’s work on nervous system regulation and her explanation of the mind-body connection opened a whole new world. I went from chronic and debilitating back pain to complete freedom, on and off the court. I can’t thank her enough. (MICHAEL PORTER JR., Denver Nuggets)
Nicole unmasks our people-pleasing, conflict avoidance, and ‘niceness,’ and shows us precisely how to finally properly listen . . . and heal. (ELISE LOEHNEN, New York Times bestselling author of On Our Best Behavior and host of the podcast Pulling the Thread)

As a physiotherapist in the uk trying to do the impossible of promoting the science behind chronic pain, I find Nicole Sachs’ insights invaluable.
It’s normal to be skeptical. But what is written here aligns with emerging neuroscience and provides practical ways of doing ‘the work’ .

Outstanding and important

I came to this booking looking for a guide on 'how to journal' for mind-body illnesses (or whatever you want to call them). I have watched a lot of recovery stories and a lot of them mentioned journalling, but I really didn't know how to start.

There are many recovery stories in this book, but they often feel like promotion for the author, and mention her retreat and other courses. Plus quite a bit of name dropping. I felt sometimes like I was being given a hard sell, which I found off putting.

I listened for several hours, but the bit on how to journal is found in the last few chapters. I found that there is a blog post on the authors website that summarises this.

It felt to me like there was just too much fluff, filler, repetition, promotion and name dropping. Perhaps if you've not read anything about this before, it would be helpful, although I still find the points laboured. I wanted a succint guide, and this was not it.

The narration also was not for me.

As for the useful content - I have returned this title, but will be using the authors free resources to try the journalling, so I'm still hopeful that it may work for me 🤞

Too much repetition and promotion. Useful content available free from author's website
