About this audiobook

Living Coherence and Neuropsychiatric Disease offers a life-process framework for understanding mental suffering beyond narrow categories of brain disorder, chemical imbalance, trauma response, or social stress. Dr. Bichara Sahely derives a transdiagnostic psychiatry from autopoiesis, structural coupling, emotioning, felt sense, and emotional sentience, showing how psychiatric symptoms may express disturbed coherence across body, brain, relation, feeling, meaning, and world. Written in an accessible academic style, this audiobook invites clinicians, researchers, patients, caregivers, and reflective listeners to reconsider healing as more than symptom suppression: the restoration of viable regulation, truthful feeling, legitimate relation, expanded options, and renewed participation in a livable world.
