    Fantastic article -- Sarno / Nicole Sachs content

    This article is a great read and could have another subtitle: 'Nicole Sachs carries the torch' The Luigi Mangione part is just a way in to the larger topic of Sarno's work; the real significance is the coverage of the ongoing work of Nicole Sachs. Also, I bet this article will bring this...

    How far we have gotten from Sarno

    "Throughout your day, pause occasionally and check in with your body. Notice if you are holding tension or feeling pain." -an 'alleged' TMS Guru are u F-ing kidding me? When My son was in High School he went to Vanderbilt University's math and science program. He got to work with Phd...

    Sarno’s recommendation to get on with life

    Hi everyone! Here’s what’s been working for me the most lately: I’m Finally following Sarno’s recommendation to “get on with life.” (Surprise, surprise!) I believe this is a mental place to be as well as a physical place. It’s actually a hard place to get to —or at least it was for me. I had...

    Good progress report!

    Cooked dinner and did dishes 2 nights in a row! (It was hard, I didn’t give up or give in.) Decided I’m going to freelance again instead of sitting on the couch feeling sorry for myself. I think being retired has been killing me. I’ll have to write using audio, but at least it will work...

    What did Sarno meant by this?

    I watched this video: and it mentions that the pain is in your head, but not entirely. He mentions that the pain is real, but the cause is in your own mind. So to get this straight, is the pain real, like you feel it, but it's all in the mind?

    27 years of migraine - I'm finally free! My success story

    Sarno - Deep Emotions

    Thanks to Diana-M for her direction to the SEP and Baseball65 for his advice. I did some deep soul searching this morning to figure out why I feel so much pain and this is what flowed from me. This is a message to Diana-M and Baseball65 for my gratitude. I do not know if my child unconscious...

    ‘It’s all happening!’

    You might recognize this line from the fantastic movie called Almost Famous, about a 15-year-old kid in the 70s who covered a mid-level band for Rolling Stone magazine. It was a line they used to say—in effect, “watch this. Dreams are coming true. Special things have come.“It’s all happening.”...

    Which works better? Sarno’s method or neural pathways approaches?

    I’ve been working out in my head whether the Sarno method is compatible or opposed to the neuroplasticity approach. (And I guess, there’s a third method—eliminating perceived danger/adrenalin.) John Sarno says the thousands of patients healed by his method are proof enough that it works. I...

    Mommy is Killing me.

    I listened to a Podcast by Tim Dillon. I don't remember the guest, but he was some cultural commentary Guru.

    Gordons PRP and Sarno

    Hello, I have just started the online program here by Alan Gordon and I read the Divided Mind by Sarno before. I understood from the book that the pain is a protection mechanism by the brain to distract us from other, "more threatening" negative emotions buried in our unconscious. As a...

    Sarno books translated

    Anyone know if any of Sarno or other mind-body books are translated into Amharic? I'm trying to help a woman I know who is struggling with chronic back pain that sounds like classic TMS. I think she would have a very hard time with the English language version. Thanks Gary
