Own Your Self

Dr Kelly Brogan, New York Times bestselling author and holistic psychiatrist, proposes an alternative to medicating mental, emotional and physical pain away.

'[Will] change how you approach your health and mental wellbeing.' Sarah Gottfried, author of The Hormone Cure.

For years, we've been telling ourselves that our difficult feelings - sadness, rage, shame, intensity, worry - are somehow 'not okay'. All too often, we've relied on the promise of pharmaceuticals to tamp them down. The fact is that these feelings are a vital part of our experience. They are real. And those of us who feel them most strongly are the canaries in the coal mine - sensitive to things that are seriously wrong in the world today.

In a book that's both provocative and promising, holistic psychiatrist Kelly Brogan MD shows us that we don't have to medicate our mental, emotional and physical pain away - that the best way out is through. Then she charts a new path to get real, get well and get free. The journey includes:

• Coming to a new appreciation of the meaning behind symptoms
• Exploring the 5 reversible physical drivers of so-called mental illness
• Starting a process of radical physical healing with inclusive details of Dr Brogan's history-making 30-day protocol
• Taking a deeper dive into the spiritual awakening and expansion that comes when you reclaim your real self from conventional medicine

Our experiences, Dr Brogan argues, aren't problems or pathologies; they reflect what we need to accept, acknowledge and transform in order to truly become who we are. Own Your Self is a journey of healing and coming home to ourselves.
