Description of  Head First A Psychiatrist's Stories of Mind and Body AKA Head First How the Mind Heals the Body [Audiobook]

English | ASIN: B0996B8JDD, B08V49SX72 | 2021 | 9 hours and 3 minutes |MP3|M4B | 248 MB Our minds shape the way we understand and react to symptoms that we develop, dictate the treatments we receive and influence whether they work. They even influence whether we develop symptoms at all. Written with brutal honesty, deep compassion and a wry sense of humour, Head First examines difficult cases that illuminate some of our most puzzling and controversial medical issues - from the tragedy of suicide, to the stigma surrounding obesity, to the ongoing misery of chronic fatigue. Ultimately he finds that our medical model has failed us by promoting specialisation and overlooking perhaps the single most important component of our health: our state of mind.
