The book gives new insight into reasons of chronic bodily pains the reasons for which largely remains undiagnosed. It explains the trapped emotions, the unconscious mind and it's capabilities to manifest into body aches. Though repetitive, but those who are really keen to explore this territory should must read this. One needs to understand little bit of psychology to get going.

Very good book.

"The Divided Mind" by Dr. John E. Sarno is a groundbreaking book that has completely changed my understanding of health and illness. Dr. Sarno's exploration of psychosomatic disorders is both profound and enlightening, providing a comprehensive look at the interaction between the conscious and unconscious mind. The book skillfully traces the history of psychosomatic medicine and highlights Freud's critical contributions to the field. Dr. Sarno's insights into how repressed emotions contribute to physical symptoms are eye-opening, and his discussion of the mindbody connection is both compelling and accessible. One of the most powerful aspects of this book is the way it empowers readers with knowledge and awareness, which Dr. Sarno suggests has genuine healing power. I found myself experiencing relief from chronic pain simply by understanding the mindbody principles outlined in the book. Overall, "The Divided Mind" is a must-read for anyone interested in the deeper connections between mental and physical health. Dr. Sarno's work is truly transformative and offers hope and healing to those struggling with psychosomatic illnesses.

Il libro é super consigliato, dovrebbero leggerlo soprattutto i dottori. Pur avendo qualche decennio, questo libro é avanti di almeno 100 anni rispetto ai dottori e alla loro mentalità, almeno per quanto riguarda l'Italia.

Un incontournable pour qui souhaite comprendre ce que notre cerveau est à notre corps, c'est à dire la pièce maîtresse. Cela peut sembler banal mais ce livre écrit avec une profonde humilité et honnêteté nous entraîne via quelques rappels de base en psychologie dans les méandres de nos inconscients. Ce livre est comme on dit aux USA : "The cure book". Lisez-le et vous irez déjà beaucoup mieux. C'est un incontournable, sans doute deviendra-t-il un classique, le docteur Sarno est un médecin non seulement perspicace mais humble et drôle aussi.
