If doctors shrug and say everything is fine with your heart, but pain and fear don’t go away—this book is for you. It explains why our body reacts to stress with illnesses, and provides a clear plan for breaking this vicious circle. Written by an experienced cardiologist and clinical medical psychologist Anna Korenyevich, the book will help you understand why chronic stress is a hidden—and at the same time most dangerous—enemy of the cardiovascular system, and why it can only be managed by working with your own subconscious. You’ll get answers to the following questions: — How emotions control health and how the brain triggers diseases—an evidence-based explanation of psychosomatics of the heart and blood vessels. — How to distinguish real heart pathology from symptoms caused by stress and anxiety. — Why pills don’t always help with "nervous" heart pain, blood pressure spikes, and tachycardia. — Where "phantom diagnoses" come from—VSD, cardioneurosis, weather sensitivity—and how to work with them. — How to lower blood pressure, calm tachycardia, and get rid of pain without lifelong medication. This book is your guide to understanding the hidden causes of heart problems and the key to healing through working with the psyche. If you’re tired of endless examinations that provide no answers, or of medications that only dull symptoms, this book offers you another path. Free yourself from fear, take control of your health, and return the joy of life by eliminating the true cause of the problems—chronic stress. Solve the issue not at the level of symptoms, but at the level of the cause.
