Discover how stress and emotions can impact chronic illness in this compelling exploration by bestselling author Gabor Maté. This book dives deep into the powerful connection between mind and body.

Uncover the vital link between emotional health and physical disease with insights grounded in science and real-life stories.

From the acclaimed author of The Myth of Normal, Dr. Gabor Maté takes you on a fascinating journey into how stress influences chronic conditions. Can loneliness literally cause death?

With empathy and warmth, Maté draws on extensive scientific research and his clinical experience to answer these pressing questions about the mind-body relationship.

When the Body Says No explores how this connection plays a role in diseases like arthritis, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and multiple sclerosis. The book features numerous insightful case studies and touching personal stories, highlighting figures such as Lou Gehrig (ALS), Betty Ford (breast cancer), Ronald Reagan (Alzheimer's), Gilda Radner (ovarian cancer), and Lance Armstrong (testicular cancer).

Additionally, Maté reveals "The Seven A's of Healing," a set of principles aimed at preventing illness caused by hidden stress. As a renowned speaker and bestselling author, Dr. Maté offers a thoughtful perspective that combines scientific evidence, case histories, and his own expertise. Instead of quick fixes, he provides a comprehensive understanding that empowers readers to support their own healing and that of others.
