How To Heal Your Pain With The Mind
00:00:00.000 | if someone goes and gets an MRI or they've had surgery and they're like, I know that I'm bone
00:00:04.080 | on bone. What is the timetable for healing before it becomes chronic and before it has something to
00:00:08.760 | do with the mind body? I am not saying that there is a mind body connection for acute pain. We pull
00:00:14.180 | our muscles, we hurt ourselves. That's not what we're talking about here. We're talking about
00:00:18.360 | once the medically agreed upon time that something should have healed is over, you have to take a
00:00:24.320 | look at pausing right there and getting curious about why these pain signals keep firing. Surgery
00:00:30.600 | can repair an ACL, but so many times, five years, 10 years later, oh, that's my bad knee. These pain
00:00:36.420 | signals are a result of a brain and nervous system in long-term fight or flight. When you pause and
00:00:41.820 | learn, when you don't use your resistance as a bar to curiosity, you will start to understand. It
00:00:47.020 | will make perfect sense. And that's when you really change your life.
