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 our bodies use to communicate with us, so we can finally cut through chronic illness.

Many of us are familiar with the concept that addressing emotional baggage such as trauma and stress supports the physical healing process. Now, bestselling author and energy healer, Amy B. Scher is helping you uncover another layer to healing: decoding the messages your body is trying to send you through your illness. 

In The Four Languages of Illness, Scher shows you why sometimes all the wonderful techniques, remedies, and self-healing practices out there only work superficially—and how to use her signature techniques to address the core message of your body. Just like we have specific love languages to communicate love, our bodies have distinct languages it uses to communicate with us. Amy introduces you to these four extraordinary languages of the body: Fatigue, Pain, Autoimmune Conditions, and Immune Deficiency – then guides you through journaling exercises, introspective tools, energy therapy techniques, healing scripts, and actionable items designed to address the message of an illness at its core.

The Four Languages of Illness shows how within the energy field of illness, we have the imprint of our past, present, and future. Getting well means paying attention to all three: where we are in the present moment, what’s happened in the past, and how we relate to—and connect with—our future.
