“Just when the medical profession had given up on me and I on it, just when I seemed to be walled up in a life sentence of chronic pain, someone proposed a bizarre way out: sit still, they said, and breathe.

Eventually it proved so exciting, so transforming, physically and mentally, that I began to think my illness had been a stroke of luck.” This is a book about the last four or five difficult but exciting years, the onset of an unpleasant and chronic health condition, a medical odyssey, a growing sense of how deeply what was happening was integrated with every aspect of my life and psyche. And then, rather wonderfully, the key that turned the lock to get me out of gaol.
