I enjoyed the reading. Did some of the workbook but I'm not sure it was a perfect fit for me.
Though, I'm a big fan of his. You really have to approach the workbook with an open sense of acceptance. I also think there is a time and place in your life to do his workbook, and I simply may have been going through too much. (Divorce, withdrawal from prescribed meds, etc.)
I think you'll find it helpful. It's a quick read and even the workbook is designed to last a couple of months at most, as I recall.
Good luck. |

| I really did not find this book very helpful as it just repeated the concepts also in Dr. Sarno's book with the addition of meditation. I know Dr. Schubiner is a great guy with good intentions and I know he has helped a lot of people. I just didn't personally find the book to be helpful to me. I felt it also limited the conditions that could be treated by this approach. |

"One of the primary goals of TMS treatment is to help clients reframe
the meaning of their pain. Instead of focusing on the pain with a sense of frustration, fear, and powerlessness, the client learns to use the pain as a guide to introspection. My pain just increased, what is going on psychologically right now? The symptoms often serve as a signpost to unaddressed emotional issues. The pain exists for a reason. It is a manifestation of emotions that, due to experiences generated throughout one’s life, have become difficult to tolerate. An essential part of treatment is to help clients learn to recognise and identify these difficult to tolerate emotions, and eventually accept and express these painful parts of themselves."

Hi Kimb
I purchased it some time ago, but I have no luck with the meditation practices. I simply am not a meditation kind of person. But perhaps you will find more success with it than I did. Best wishes! |
