The Four Languages of Illness

For readers of The Body Says No and The Body Keeps the Score, a system for deciphering the four distinct languages the body uses to communicate, so people who struggle with chronic illness can finally find freedom.

Many people are familiar with the concept that addressing emotional baggage such as trauma and stress supports the physical healing process. Now, bestselling author and energy therapist Amy B. Scher uncovers another layer to healing: decoding the messages the body sends through chronic illness.

Bodies have four distinct, extraordinary languages they use to communicate: Immune Deficiency; Fatigue; Pain & Depression; and Autoimmunity, Anxiety, & Chronic Inflammation. Examining why sometimes all the wonderful techniques, remedies, and self-healing practices out there only work superficially, Scher introduces her proprietary exercises, introspective tools, energy therapy techniques, and healing scripts designed to address the message of an illness at its core and unlock deeper healing.

With a supportive attitude toward modern and integrative medicine, The Four Languages of Illness helps patients fill in the gap of where doctors and treatments leave off—and answer the question: What is my body trying to tell me through its own love language, and how can I truly listen to heal, better?
