THE MINDBODY SYNDROME (TMS): A Path to Recovery & Freedom

Building upon Dr. Sarno’s pioneering TMS work, The Mindbody Syndrome (TMS): a path to recovery & freedom presents detailed and accessible methods and practices aimed at deepening understanding and insight in order to fully integrate TMS recovery. Based on years of comprehensive research and firsthand experience, TMS author Kevin Martillo Viner delves deeply into the psychological mind of the TMS sufferer, providing a framework and myriad of tools for the necessary mind training involved in TMS recovery. At the heart of The Mindbody Syndrome (TMS): a path to recovery & freedom is the realization that you are already healed because there is in fact nothing to actually heal. Kevin skillfully reminds us “that countless others have overcome TMS – they’re human, you’re human. They recovered and you can too.”

In this book, Kevin captured the very essence of the healing message. It is the best TMS book thus far, in that, he provides practical applications such as practicing presence as well as advice on the internal changes necessary to make the shift back into wellness. This is an excellent overview of the healing process. – Steve Ozanich (Author of the International Bestseller The Great Pain Deception and the Amazon #1 Bestseller Back Pain Permanent Healing)

This book provides a structured approach to TMS recovery that is as thorough as it is profound. It builds on one’s intellectual acceptance that they have TMS and insightfully articulates the journey one must take to bring knowing into being. This is a new type of TMS book that is much needed. So many books have, understandably, spent their effort trying to convince the reader that TMS is legitimate, and the conventional medical approach is off-base. But there’s a whole new generation of TMSers who get that now (thanks to the valiant efforts of Dr. Sarno, Steve Ozanich, etc.) and are still stuck. There are also various opinions and approaches now, which makes it easy to hop around trying this and that, just staying distracted. Moreover, this book confronts one of the biggest accusations folks have about TMS materials: they don't focus on WHAT TO DO. This book offers a correctly oriented & structured scaffolding for a TMS recovery approach. It's like all this reading we've been doing is undergraduate-level, whereas this book is masters-level. – Chris Lenox Smith
