Find the emotion to help heal the body. A groundbreaking approach to chronic illness, from psychotherapist Nicole Sachs

'This book serves as a transformative road map, offering actionable steps that promise liberation and empowerment.' – GABBY BERNSTEIN, #1 New York Times bestselling author

'Filled with detailed accounts of how stressful events shape the pain we experience in our bodies and anxiety in our emotional landscapes, we learn how strengthening mental skills of attention, awareness and self-compassion can transform our suffer­ing, as we shift from merely surviving to thriving in a new life of freedom and choice.'
– DANIEL SIEGEL, author of the New York Times bestseller Aware


Does it feel like your body is failing you? It doesn't have to be this way.

The thread that binds us is chronic pain, and conditions that limit us in countless ways. We live a shadow life, isolated by our pain. This struggle impacts our confidence at work, in our relationships, and leaves us vulnerable to depression. You may have tried different drugs, surgeries, alternative and holistic procedures, hoping to find a hint of relief. Too often, that relief doesn’t come.

In Mind Your Body, psychotherapist Nicole Sachs shows us a new way of understanding and tackling chronic pain by nurturing your mind–body connection. With compassionate guidance, she helps us to understand that pain is an invitation to recognise the inner truths that have been waiting for our acknowledgement.

In this groundbreaking book, Nicole Sachs explores the emotional depth of pain, by exploring common mini traumas such as shame, grief, suppressed emotions and unresolved issues. Through practical tools, journal prompts and self-inquiry, she offers us deeply healing ways to truly understand our body-mind, get to the bottom of our chronic condition and live life to the full once more.

Praise for Mind Your Body

Nicole Sachs deeply understands the connection between trauma, the body and chronic illness, and her transformative program can help anyone suffering from chronic pain live a better life.

ARIANNA HUFFINGTON, founder & CEO, Thrive Global

When faced with chronic symptoms, I personally applied Nicole’s insights to unveil my path to healing. This book serves as a transformative road map, offering actionable steps that promise liberation and empowerment.

GABBY BERNSTEIN, #1 New York Times bestselling author

The work I did with Nicole has been life-changing. When three separate back sur­geries didn’t resolve my pain, Nicole’s work on nervous system regulation and her explanation of the mind-body connection opened a whole new world. I went from chronic and debilitating back pain to complete freedom, on and off the court. I can’t thank her enough.

MICHAEL PORTER JR., Denver Nuggets

Nicole unmasks our people-pleasing, conflict avoidance, and ‘niceness,’ and shows us precisely how to finally properly listen . . . and heal.

ELISE LOEHNEN, New York Times bestselling author of On Our Best Behavior and host of the podcast Pulling the Thread

Nicole Sachs has been invaluable to me during my darkest days and beyond. Her loving and tireless care helped me heal from my trauma and loss of my beloved partner. The unbearable sciatica I suffered five years ago has never come back, thanks to the tools I learned from Nicole. It is not hyperbole when I say that she gave me my life back.
