Chapters then outline the applications of trigger assessment in research and clinical practice. To conclude, the book relays descriptions of future directions and evolving theories in the area.Concise and comprehensive, Assessing Headache Triggers is an invaluable resource for clinicians who treat patients and investigators who aim to improve the lives of individuals with headache through their research.

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES #1 BESTSELLER'Typically exposing, brilliantly written' VOGUE'Its quick hits of wit are like sniffs from an oxygen mask' NEW YORK TIMES'Few people are willing to be as human as Lena Dunham' OBSERVER'A generational voice' FINANCIAL TIMESIn this rowdy, frank reflection on illness, fame, sex, and everything in between, the remarkable mind behind the hit series Girlsand the bestselling author of Not That Kind of Girlasks whether fulfilling her creative ambitions has been worth the pain.For the last decade, as she's spent countless hours in doctor's waiting rooms searching for diagnoses, treatments, and relief, being the owner and operator of Lena Dunham's body has felt, as she puts it, 'like towing a wrecked car across town at midnight.' It's not easy dragging a wrecked car anywhere, much less to the Met Gala while sewn into a gold lamé corset. Or to the set of the hit show that you - as a twenty-five-year-old - are writing, directing, producing, and starring in. Or to the White House, the Golden Globes, or your publicist's office to discuss the latest internet disaster. But Dunham does it - even if it means interminable hospital stays, vomiting in the bathroom when she's meant to be meeting Oprah, or terrifying those closest to her - because she can no longer tell the difference between fighting to do what she loves and being a servant to her own ambition. All the while, she is holding out for a love that can withstand her personal and public challenges and, more than anything, yearning to feel like herself again - if only she could remember who that self was.As Dunham takes us through her journey, tracking her rise to fame - from selling the pilot of Girlsto the present - in three acts, it becomes clear that the spotlight casts long shadows, distorting the relationships she once held dear and isolating everyone in its glare. When an endless supply of drugs can't protect you from pain - and begins to control your every move - being famous doesn't stand a chance against the darker corners of the human experience.In Famesick, Dunham asks herself what the cost of fulfilling her dreams has really been, and whether it was worth it. What she finds is deeper than physical relief, and more lasting, as she learns to live with what she can't change and turn her regrets into wisdom that can carry her forward, as she reconnects to what, and who, she loves.

'This book serves as a transformative road map, offering actionable steps that promise liberation and empowerment.' - GABBY BERNSTEIN, #1 New York Times bestselling author'Filled with detailed accounts of how stressful events shape the pain we experience in our bodies and anxiety in our emotional landscapes, we learn how strengthening mental skills of attention, awareness and self-compassion can transform our suffer­ing, as we shift from merely surviving to thriving in a new life of freedom and choice.'- DANIEL SIEGEL, author of the New York Times bestseller AwareDoes it feel like your body is failing you? It doesn't have to be this way. The thread that binds us is chronic pain, and conditions that limit us in countless ways. We live a shadow life, isolated by our pain. This struggle impacts our confidence at work, in our relationships, and leaves us vulnerable to depression. You may have tried different drugs, surgeries, alternative and holistic procedures, hoping to find a hint of relief. Too often, that relief doesn't come. In Mind Your Body, psychotherapist Nicole Sachs shows us a new way of understanding and tackling chronic pain by nurturing your mind-body connection. With compassionate guidance, she helps us to understand that pain is an invitation to recognise the inner truths that have been waiting for our acknowledgement. In this groundbreaking book, Nicole Sachs explores the emotional depth of pain, by exploring common mini traumas such as shame, grief, suppressed emotions and unresolved issues. Through practical tools, journal prompts and self-inquiry, she offers us deeply healing ways to truly understand our body-mind, get to the bottom of our chronic condition and live life to the full once more.

Schmerz ist ein Beziehungsgeschehen. Gefühle der Einsamkeit und Isolation bedingen, dass man dem Verhältnis zu anderen Menschen und ihrer Bedeutung für den Schmerz kaum Aufmerksamkeit schenkt. Dass es jedoch im Erleben einer leidvollen Situation einen großen Unterschied macht, ob man mitfühlend berührt und getröstet oder ob man ignoriert wird, zeigt die Erfahrung. Diese Beobachtung verlangt nach einer Reflexion über die Intersubjektivität und Alterität der Schmerzerfahrung. Durch die Untersuchung ausgewählter Phänomene, u. a. von Folter, Selbstverletzung oder Geburtsschmerz, wird ausgelotet, wie das Empfinden durch andere beeinflusst wird und die konkrete Situation das individuelle Erleben von Nähe und Distanz verändert. Umgekehrt ist zu prüfen, inwieweit Empathie oder ihr Fehlen das Erleben von Schmerz modifizieren. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Analyse zwischenmenschlicher Beziehungen, die sich in extremer affektiver Betroffenheit besonders verdichten, für eine Phänomenologie des Schmerzes unentbehrlich ist.
