Experiencing pain for awhile, a.k.a. chronic pain, thoughts can appear about paying even if there is no pain in that moment.

There’s a lot of anticipation.

Because of past experiences.

The expectation becomes a certainty in one’s mind. That will definitely hurt…

Even though fundamentally, we don’t know the future, even a few seconds ahead.

It creeps up on you.

However, revealing this reveals the work to be done together.

To deepen your understanding of your pain, which is the key first step – opening the door to possibilities.

The wide range of ways to live yourself better becomes available when you understand your pain.

Coping with and managing pain.

These messages have been around for a long long time.

Whilst there may be particular moments where you are coping or managing, these are not strategies you have to use or even believe for a long-term transformation.

Instead, you can be clear on where you want to go, what you want to achieve, understand and realise where you are now, and each day set your intent and live yourself better in that direction.

That’s the spirit of pain coaching.

“As I encountered women whose experiences of being misdiagnosed, dismissed, belittled and blamed felt achingly familiar, I no longer felt alone.”

~ Elinor Cleghorn

This is an all too familiar story.

One I have heard from the women who have come to see me over and over again.

Which is why I’m currently working on a project that I hope will be a useful guide to women navigating the system when they’re trying to find their way forward and transform their pain.

Some of my early writings will be shared on my Substack, Pain Talking.

Do subscribe so you have access to these and hundreds of other blogs where I share insights and ways to transform your pain drawing on many fields, philosophy, cultures and traditions that offer tangible and practical ways forward.

Pain is not in your brain.

Pain is embodied. It is where you feel it in that moment.

That is your experience.

When you answer this question you realise the source of your suffering.

You also realise that the degree of your suffering is equal to the degree of your resistance.

Life, your life, is just this moment.

It is easy to expand an enormous amount of energy re-experiencing the past, and imagining the future.

Your brain, mind, and body systems together as one are active in the same way whether you’re re-living a memory or imagining a future (neither of which actually exist) as if it were actually happening.

You’re using the same amount of energy.

It can be exhausting getting caught up in the past and future, even though neither are real.

Be here now.

Now you are living, whatever is happening.

That’s the way it is.

“A recent large-scale study in the UK has found that people with autoimmune diseases are at nearly double the risk of developing mental health conditions such as depression, generalized anxiety, and bipolar disorder. This risk appears to be higher in women than in men with similar autoimmune conditions.

The findings, published in BMJ Mental Health, suggest that chronic exposure to systemic inflammation caused by autoimmune diseases may help explain this increased risk.”

~ Technology Networks

Conclusion: “the risk of affective disorders among people living with autoimmune conditions was nearly twice that of the general population.”
