When The Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress

Description

Trained to consider mind and body separately, physicians are often helpless in arresting the advance of most of the chronic diseases. Dr. Gabor Maté has found that in all of these chronic conditions, there is a common thread: people afflicted by these diseases have led lives of excessive stress, often invisible to the individuals themselves. From an early age, many of us develop a psychological coping style that keeps us out of touch with the signs of stress. So-called negative emotions, particularly anger, are suppressed. Dr. Maté writes with great conviction that knowledge of how stress and disease are connected is essential to prevent illness in the first place, or to facilitate healing. Other books by Dr. Gabor Maté include Scattered Minds: The Origins & Healing of ADD, In The Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters With Addiction, and The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, & Healing In A Toxic Culture.
