Dive into the complex and fascinating world of the pain system. Pain is a great teacher, it makes us change our behavior, avoid movements and adapt to many protective responses without realizing it.
Chronic pain teaches the brain to be over protective which equals more pain.
Learn to use this knowledge to improve body, mind and daily life.
We may never be totally pain free, yet I have witnessed that we can improve our pain and move through our lives with less tension and suffering.
Stuck in a pain rut? Digging out is tough, yet rewarding. Chronic Pain is a conscious experience which is built from many aspects in our lives, not just from the "tissue issues". Pushing through or stopping movements that hurt, fear avoidance, etc.. and "forecasting" our days due to pain, all become unconscious and common place. Yet, we can learn to unravel our patterns with
calm breath, patience and persistence.
With compassion for ourselves and those around us, we can find new ways to use our efforts (this stuff isn't always easy) to change how we navigate and decipher our unique and individual pain experience.
I have been on this journey myself and I am pleased to share it with you as an accompaniment to your pain care regiment.
