Description
"Barbara Levine's journey is one of courage and growth. We can all learn from her experience. She shows us what we are capable of and how to achieve our full healing potential." - Bernie Siegel, MD.
Your Body Believes Every Word You Say is the first book to describe the language of the link between mind and body. Barbara Levine's fifteen-year battle with a huge brain tumor led her to trace common phrases like "that breaks my heart" and "it's a pain in the butt" back to the underlying beliefs on which they are based and the symptoms they cause. She lists hundreds of common examples of words we use unconsciously every day, and shows how these "seedthoughts" can set us up for illness.
This book shows you how to avoid "dis-easing" language that sabotages your wellness, and how to draw up a customized Operating Manual that you can use to keep your body healthy. It will show you how to bring disease-causing ideas from your subconscious to your conscious mind - and reprogram your life dramatically for the better.
Rather than remaining passive victims, Barbara's inspiring story demonstrates in simple, non-medical terminology, how you can use illness as a tool for increase self-understanding and, ultimately, healing.
"I was deeply moved by Barbara Levine's personal story. It is obvious that she is a woman of great courage and strength and that she has harnessed these qualities well." - Kitty Dukakis
Barbara Levine was stricken with a massive, life-threatening tumor at the age of 32. After being misdiagnosed for years and undergoing hundreds of tests, she began looking at the role her language played in reinforcing her illness. Her discoveries led her to fifteen years of research - and an amazing recovery.
Barbara holds an MA in Communications and a BA in Industrial Psychology.
