    Dr. Sarno mentioned on TV series, "Billions"

    In the latest episode (Season 2, Episode 4) of the Showtime series, "Billions," the therapist, Wendy Rhodes, is heard remarking, "well you know what Dr. Sarno says about that kind of pain.” Anyone else catch that?

    Dr. Sarno mentioned on HBO's "Billions":

    All that was said by a female therapist on the show was: "Well you know what Dr. Sarno says about that pain"? And then absolutely nothing else for the rest of the episode. I think it speaks volumes of the (/widening/widespread?) acceptance of Sarno and his teachings, when a writer feels it...

    You've tried Dr Sarno, mindfulness, gratitude, but if it's STILL there?

    Hello I used to have chronic back pain and used the wonderful Dr Sarno's back pain book to eliminate my low back pain, 14 years ago. Now, I do mindfulness, gratitude, etc... and it was all great. Managed to get rid of lots of pain and symptoms for myself. However, sometimes, we are unable to...

    Hello All, I've found this forum community to be a terrific resource for education and it has been immensely helpful to just read about others in a similar situation.

    Fibromyalgia and the Dr Sarno connection

    Interesting, but like most fibromyalgia groups he doesn't agree with Dr Sarno's findings. It may be worthwhile signing up and supporting Dr Sarno's theories... THE FIBROMYALGIA PERPLEX It is discovered that the true meaning of Fibromyalgia is not as simple as is usually believed, but for proper...

    Too much angst...and TMS.

    Take a moment and give thanks you are here, and reflect on how lucky you are to accept and acknowledge the pain is caused by a simple psychologically induced process. What an amazing concept to know what is actually causing pain that is totally harmless, that the outside world is completely...

    Give back to Dr. Sarno and the people

    I wish I had a success story to post on Thank you, Dr. Sarno! site - I am not there yet. But I am thinking about how much it must matter to him that his life's work is growing and helping more and more people. I also think about how helpful it was to me when I first started reading about TMS...

    Where is Doctor Sarno those days?

    Just wondering if he is doing ok and enjoying his retirement. Or May be he is reading this forum occasionally:) I wish him many more healthy years ahead!

    John Sarno books

    If I had to pick one John Sarno book to read, what would you recommend? My pain is not back--it's chronic migraines for 10 years plus 2-4 times a week each lasting 24 hours unless I take a prescription immitrex which knocks it out within 2 hours usually. Otherwise, it's in bed with an ice pack...

    Dr. Sarno endorses new book about ISTDP

    Hi, all. Occasionally, we talk about something called ISTDP on this forum. ISTDP stands for Intensive Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy. I first learned about ISTDP from Arlene Feinblatt, PhD, "the mother of all TMS therapists." She wrote the section on psychotherapy in The Divided Mind and...
