Publisher's Summary
Comfort, understanding, and advice for those who are suffering - and those who care for them....
Chronic illness creates many challenges, from career crises and relationship issues to struggles with self-blame, personal identity, and isolation. Beloved author Toni Bernhard addresses these challenges and many more, using practical examples to illustrate how mindfulness, equanimity, and compassion can help listeners make peace with a life turned upside down.
In her characteristic conversational style, Bernhard shows how to cope and make the most of life despite the challenges of chronic illness. Benefit from:
- Mindfulness exercises to mitigate physical and emotional pain
- Concrete advice for negotiating the everyday hurdles of medical appointments, household chores, and social obligations
- Tools for navigating the strains illness can place on relationships
Several chapters are directed toward family and friends of the chronically ill, helping them to understand what their loved one is going through and how they can help.
Humorous and empathetic, Bernhard shares her own struggles and setbacks with unflinching honesty, offering invaluable support in the search to find peace and well-being.

Excellent resource! #Audible1
This book was a pivotal part of my home self management program dealing with chronic pain and illness. I found the narrator's voice and content to be compassionate, inspiring and educational. It would fill voids in the day with positivity and understanding.
Great book.

For the newly diagnosed
This book serves as a great introduction and brief overview for those newly diagnosed with chronic pain. Though, if you are a long-time patient and have done previous research, processed the diagnosis, had convos about it with friends and family, etc. the book likely won't offer new information to you
