this is an important video. My adult son went through a gut wrenching trauma with a surprise divorce and loss of job. He developed severe colitis/Crohns disease - they never could decide. I traveled to his state and moved in with him. They wanted to remove his rectum and put him on immuno-suppressive drugs. We asked the surgeon and GI physician to give us 3 months. I taught him about presence, breathing, affirmations, and being safe (back then I didn't use that term). We improved his diet and supplements, laughed, shared, cooked healthy, and spent a month together. When I went home, I left a grease board in the kitchen with a list of diet recommendations and affirmations. He complied 100% and in less than 6 months, he was in remission and has been ever since. It's probably 12 years now. I'm certain this was TMS brought on by his tremendous fear/anger. He's happily remarried now and mega successful!!!
Dan, thank you so much for these daily videos. They mean so much to so many.
Can you please share what those diet/supplement recommendations were? I agree - the brain gut axis is connected and I am going through digestive issues but surprisingly the back pain dissipated. So the nervous system is scanning. These daily videos and trying to walk a more calm pathway is key. Thanks so much @jano72558
Diabolical that medical offered such an extreme "solution" . Glad he turned that corner with you by his side
I really applaud you for getting in there and helping your son managing his situation and helping him heal. In your post you mentioned you asked the dr’s to give you three months. I do not take this attitude with dr’s. They work for me. I’m not asking them for anything other than a recommendation. I make the decision. I just put this out there because I’ve learned the hard way that we give dr’s waaayyyyy too much power. They don’t know nearly as much as they think they do.
Wow! What an incredible mom you are!!!! Kudos! You saved his life! ❤
@@carla6871 it’s a lot to write here. Investigate the concepts Dan suggests plus clean up bad habits.
I am living proof that digestive issues are a TMS/PDP issue. When I feel relaxed and safe, no issues. When I get worked up, stressed, disconnected from my feelings, the digestive symptoms return, but now more briefly since I’ve been implementing the techniques. I feel bad for people who are still trying to identify a particular food that causes the drama. I went down that path for years. Years! Total waste of time…for me at least.
Also, it’s interesting that people get help from supplements. I tried that for years. I’d initially experience some gentle alleviation of symptoms and then a full blown return of them. The efficacy of the supplements or diet wore off over time. Very quickly in some cases. Because I wasn’t dealing with the root issue, the brain, the psyche. I wasn’t comforting myself. Providing safety.
@@CherryLane-si1yj I have the exact same experience with diets and supplements. It will work for a few weeks and then not at all. I found relief with these symptomatic treatments for 2 years, rotating between different approaches. But I think the main block comes from the nervous system, i.e the brain. Thanks for sharing your story !
Wonderful - thank you for sharing your experience.
There can definitely be a placebo effect with supplementation routines.
@CherryLane-si1yj Thank you so much for sharing your experience and thoughts ❤️
Ive known people who had severe gut diseases like chrones and colitis. They fully healed when they addressed their emotional issues. Now they are eating whatever they like and never worrying about where the bathroom is. I think all these modern diseases, not poisoning or infection, is emotional based.
Agree completely
Thank you for sharing your experience with these concepts. I appreciate you.
Can I please talk to you about this? Do you think eliminating stress can heal the gut in cases of crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis and stop meds completely?
It absolutely makes sense. No dis-ease within the body is bourne out of calm, peace and ease. The gut is our second brain.. so surely it works like the first brain and if we don't let either of them know we are safe, they don't work correctly. Total sense to me. Thanks Dan, please keep these seemingly unrelated posts coming ❤
Thank you for sharing your insight and feedback Laura.
Dan is absolutley correct. I had diarrhea for 4 years. The more worried the worst it got
I was pooing 6 times a day. Last March I pulled thr trigger and went to a GI Doctor and got s colonoscopy and everything was normal..Guesd what I felt SAFE again and relieved and the symptons abated within a month. My GI doctor also talked to me about the brain and gut connection..The more you worry the more it will.persist..No diet NOTHING helped until I stopped freaking out. I also had digetive issues where I could not digest food. It just got stuck in stomach and that all went away. The stomach and bowels are heavily affected with stress.
@@kalosevillinas Thank you for sharing your experience with the community. Very helpful.
IBS is absolutely a brain Flight or fight problem, triggered by anxiety/stress.
Yep - stress suppresses the digestive system. Safety is the solution.
Exactly. I have IBS. There's no inflammation, nothing physically wrong with the gut or microbiome. It's only bad when my fibro flares up - which you are helping tremendously with (not flaring me up! :)@@PainFreeYou
Dan, thank you sooooo much for these videos. I have had IBS and back pain for decades (I am 75 years old now so they tell me everything is due to OLD AGE! I think that is BS!). Been to every doctor etc. Had every test, done every procedure and been on every diet. I found Dr. Sarno, Howard Schubiner and you about the same time a few weeks ago. I am finding relief now at times. I have to make myself relax and keep reminding myself that I am not broken. Please keep up the videos. They are wonderful
I too have IBS and back pain. Going on 30 years. I am 71 years old. I have to convince myself that it's not just old age! Hard to do but I'm gonna try.😊
People who say that digestive issues are a functional problem and not TMS have never heard of the gut-brain axis or the vagus nerve.
I had a crazy unset of ibs, 12years ago..a doctor who wanted to treat my muscular symptoms and headaches sent me to a dietitian.. she told me my pain was curable with a very restricted diet, I had to follow for 3 months.. nothing changed so perfect me kept doing that for another 3 months and my husband did it too to support me. He didn’t do it as strict..
After 6 months of no results, I was allowed to eat my previous diet.. I started ibs, severe pain and bloated .. so then they said, ok you have a new diagnosis , on top of fibromyalgia. Result 12 years of fear of foods and very restricted diet.. my husband struggled too to eat normal again..
Good news is that since a couple of weeks, I expand my food and eat with a calm trustful mindset.. and I experience days without crisis in my intestines!
So yes, ibs is Tms!!
Thanks Dan!
Great video!
Have a wonderful Wednesday ❤you and everyone..🌻
Thank you for sharing your experience. Amazing how much doctors can lead us off course. Thrilled you are back on track. Amazing what a calm and trustful mindset will do.
I relate to your story...and I am reintroducing & trusting more foods into my diet...although I am vegan but for the animals not for dietary reasons!! So pleased you have also found more peace with this & can broaden your food intake. I am actually starting to enjoy food for the first time I can remember...how about you?
💗
@@josiejo117good for you Josie!👏I love eating healthy and also the social aspect of it.. sharing a meal with someone is my heaven on earth.
I truly enjoy the painfree after-dinner moment now.. it’s not over yet but a great proof of progress for a big symptom to lessen/ change/ disappear..
Keep going Josie ❤we will get there!🤗🙋♀️🥰
Oeps it’s Tuesday today!so have a wonderful Tuesday Dan and everyone ❤
Inge we have several people in the group who have been adding more foods into their diets with amazing success! It’s so exciting!!!
Definitely it is TMS. I had IBS C, chronic constipation (10+ years) and other crazy gut and nerve related pains. All of them healed. So I had to take some supplements like digestive enzymes and eat fiber rich food while training the brain again and again that there is nothing wrong with you. Interestingly I had a big keloid on my chest which also became calm, no irritation any more and reduced the size. For other in the same journey, it seems tough to come out of this loop of fight and flight responses but it is not impossible. Initially you have to give more time to train the mind in meditation and breahing exercises besides takkng the supplements. I weaned of the medication slowly and then some habit forming supplements. Slowly you will build the resilience and learn to stay calm and eventually things will be past. Now i can eat anything but i choose to eat balanced.
Thank you for your story, it gives us hope 🙏🏽
I am having the same symptoms for many years now and feeling pretty hopeless. But your comment is very reassuring. Thank you.
I'm so happy you have talked about this. Pain is just not mechanical back pain etc. I do believe the gut and brain are so entwined. I have massive problems with gut issues...constant nausea, acid reflux, ibs symptoms. I do have a hiatal hernia...some people can carry on with digestive probs but they stop me in my tracks. I think this is the fear element. I suffer panic attacks and high anxiety. I just can't seem to eliminate the fear . I tell myself I'm safe etc no danger but my subconscious won't take it 😢
Saying I'm safe is not enough. We have to show the brain we are by how we behave and move throughout our day.
czcams.com/video/RPniVyhpyyo/video.html
@@villaineramatriarchy I understand and I'm sorry you had that experience. What you proved to yourself is that teaching your brain you are safe has done wonders for you. Bravo.
I feel like you’re describing me! 😢it’s hard to persuade your brain you’re safe, when you still have doubt and not totally sure if you are safe or if it’s something serious!
I know how anxiety causes gas. Anxiety causes hyperventilation or being unable to relax muscles. Hyperventilation causes gas. The gas comes out in gas and bloating.
I was diagnosed with visceral hypersensitivity in stomach which causes pain. My GI doctor is a big proponent of brain/ gut connection. I've had multiple tests for years, nothing structurally wrong. There is also a psychiatrist in my GI practice who specializes in working with GI patients. His diagnosis is somatic disorder. I've recently discovered your videos and I know what you are teaching works because I have used same techniques to be free from anxiety
I'm in another program recovering from 'CFS.' Big fear of movement because I equated movement with fatigue. After challenging myself to step up my walking I got a week of IBS symptoms. I don't have IBS and have had no digestive issues though this whole thing. The symptoms went away after I worked out it could be my nervous system and responded well. Scared brain can definitely affect your gut.
Docs told my mom I had celiac disease as a toddler/child. Nothing stayed in my system. Looking back, it was TMS that I had - even as a young child. My mother was a nervous, fearful, people pleasing, anxious young woman - there is no doubt in my mind that I absorbed all of her fears as a young child - TMS. From the age of 7/8 to about 11/12, I had a routine of having to go to the bathroom every Sunday for an hour plus to get through ‘routine’ gut pain and diarrhea. Like clockwork. It’s amazing to look back now (at 53) and realize that it was TMS!
So sorry you had to experience that as a young child.. it’s a gift that we finally can connect all these puzzle 🧩 pieces
and create our own healthy happy life- puzzle!Take care Nicole!☘️☘️☘️
@@Inge508 I agree Inge! There is such relief and freedom in understanding now why we went through those things!
Wow - tough stuff. Glad you see what it is now.
Ty.threw out all tummy meds. Its definitely anxiety and started in childhood as a result of trauma. Had the latest scope no further problems so I'm not broken lol! Don't need meds. Not sick. Working on calming and the pain is gone in all other areas. Onky this and 1 other issue. But doing the work. This week I ate whatever...fine. started some crankiness told it whatever moving on. I'm not broken. This too shall pass. Ty. I made a decision...❤
Dan I can’t Thank you enough. I was having a rough day. Watched this video and dragged my sry ass right to gym. I can always count on your videos when I need to get back on track.
You are very welcome.
I agree with this to a large extent...stress and the autonomic nervous system/TMS/PDP play a huge role in this and could me the main cause in a lot of people. But I also believe cleaning up our lives...the foods we eat, the toxins we consume etc can help a lot (plus its just good practice for general health right!!)....taking care of our bodies reduces the stress too so it compliments the mindset work...be kind to your body in all the ways and it will serve you well ❤
I agree. Biology matters. Food matters. Eat toxic processed foods and you won't feel great.
LISTEN TO THIS MAN HE IS TELLING THE TRUTH 100%
Thank you so much man your videos literally gave me the assurance and confidence I needed within 1 day for my symptoms of heart palpitations and stomach pains and burning to go away completely. Its all in the mind people trully believe what this man is saying because he is sent from God!!
I love you Dan Jesus bless you and your family AMEN!!
I can speak to this first hand. I was diagnosed with UC seven years ago. IBD, not IBS. But it started during a very stressful time. I've tried tons of meds that never worked. I've been off of them for years and I have minimal bathroom issues. That's not to say I don't still have UC but I don't obsess over it. I believe I will reverse this with time. But like with anything else, having a no-freak-out approach is always a good response.
Can you share what worked for you? Thanks!
@@carla6871 that's tough in a way because we're all different. I developed chronic back pain about a year after UC. My back became my priority so I paid less attention to my UC. But generally I was mindful of certain foods that caused issues, ate more fruits and veggies and protein. Less processed stuff. Did some fasting. Hope that helps a bit
Love that. "no freak out response".
Hi, I work as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, and I agree! I actually integrate this (very carefully) into sessions and people/patients seem to resonate wth it. I'm going to recommend your suggestions as well (and this needn't be controversial 🤷♀️✌️
It shouldn't be controversial. It's well known that stress affects digestion.
So needed to hear this. Had severe IBS that still shows itself after an anxiety episode. On the whole my guts are very healthy. Have had colonoscopy because of cancer family history. Last one showed diverticulitis but consultant says it's a normal wear thing for most people my age and that eating seeds is now ok, previous colonoscopy I was told to cut them out.
Now my sleep is so broken because I'm waking parched then drinking water then need the loo. Thought it was acid reflux originally, I know it's not. Then I thought allergies. Got rid of toothpaste containing SLS or fluoride as they can cause dry mouth. I then ruled out diabetes although anxiety makes me crave sugary snack. I don't eat anything sweet because I develop mouth ulcers within an half an hour! I'm now going to treat it as PDP even if it's happening whilst I'm asleep. Thank you so much. Just writing this has caused dry mouth 🙄
@@thanksagainfortheteavery interesting because I have issues with any type of fatty food. Just started eating salmon, cos of osteoporosis and if I take along with vitamin D I have gut cramps.
Thank you Dan for talking about digestion ! I'll keep this video in my private playlist, and replay it regularly for "brain safety" purposes :)
You are very welcome.
Brain safety. I like that.
I had chronic C for 20 years. Finally broke free after changing my diet. But I noticed that the symptoms were much worse under stress. Everyone is different, don’t give up. My holy grail was beans and greens.
So glad you addressed this. Been there, done all the "fixes"!! Everything is connected. Still implementing the new knowledge & correct information to help guide me through. Much love to you always & everyone on this journey.Xxx💗 I would just like to add I am actually vegan but for the love of animals not for dietary reasons!!
Fantastic! Thanks Josie.
@@thanksagainforthetea No judgement from me...I was saying it from my own personal perspective.♥
@@villaineramatriarchy So pleased you understood...sometimes comments can be lost in translation or misinterpreted & I just wanted to make sure!! Much love to you💕
@@villaineramatriarchy Love it.
Of course you are right again.
I have had many digestive symptoms all of my life . And have done all the diets . It just goes on and on.
Finally, I know that what you teach is the truth. Otherwise, I would be the healthiest person alive. 😂
Thanks Dan.
You are very welcome. Check out my Fast Start playlist for a deep dive into what's going on and what to do about it: czcams.com/play/PLRJmnkn2kTTIl4frNvmpenr49xcTmVl2H.html
All your videos feel like you are talking directly to me. This is 💯 the root cause of my digestive issues. Thank you so much. You are incredibly insightful
Thank you so much for this! I have SIBO, and leaky guy. I desperately want to get off my 10 supplements - so expensive! Can you achieve complete healing and independence from supplements and be able to eat again? I'd love to hear someone's healing story. I'm looking through your videos.
You can watch Helmut's TMS / PDP Success Story - Digestive Issues, Fatigue, Brain Fog, Sensitivities and Many More episode 😘
@extradextrose thank you! I'm glad to hear you've arrived at a place you're happy with. I'm there as well! I ditched my diet and my supplements. So thankful!
@@ambitiousbutrubbish1992 his story is so encouraging! I'm doing so much better now and have gotten away from diet and supplements. Thank you!
I believe you are spot on, absolutely correct. One of my symptom imperatives was digestive issues.
Pretty common.
This makes tremendous sense, especially when you think about the gut-brain axis. They are intrinsically linked. COVID gave me long COVID, which gave me fatigue, neuropathy, dysautonomia, POTS, and chronic constipation, which I am still dealing with. I am now very focused on getting my mind calm and safe as you discuss, while also shopping the perimeter of the grocery store as you mentioned in a comment above (below? lol). I 100% believe I can do this. So glad I found you (on Raelan Agle’s channel).
Amy your resume is similar to mine. Covid in Jan 2022. Created tremendous fear. I was never very sick. Then in april may i began fatigue headaches and kept my numb feet that started during covid. I never had POTS. On yesterday’s zoom call I received great insight and reassurance from Dan & 3 others on the call. We were triggered by fear. My last symptom is feet. Goes away at night. Then builds as day progresses. Best to you. Join our zoom!
@@tominnc315 thanks for your reply; so glad you are progressing with your recovery! Maybe I will join 🤔
Amy Dan has at least one success story for someone who had Long Covid. You can do it!!!

I absolutely have bowel issues during fear situations, IE: urgency to evacuate or high frequency during stress situations - fight or flight
That's a great connection to make so we understand what is going on.
This is the best video you’ve done for my situation. Thank you so much!
Thanks for this video, Dan! I dealt with back pain for years and it dissipated with the use of TMS principles. I will have a random back discomfort here and there but I no longer react to it with fear. Interesting how once the back pain was mostly gone, digestive issues show up. I definitely believe in a correlation here
Treat the digestive issues with the same clarity and lack of fear. They can settle down too.
Paleoketo is very healthy WeatherBug have CFS or not. Eating well is vitally important especially if u are over 45.
Eating well is always a good idea. Cut the carbs, sugars and processed foods. Sometimes it's more of what we don't eat than what we do. Shop the perimiter of the grocery store. Organic produce, meats, fish, maybe some dairy. The middle isles are all processed junk.
@@PainFreeYou Okay, just checking because you always sound like everything is a fear based issue in the brain only and so you don't have to look at what you eat or whether or not you exercise or get enough rest - or be careful about the types of people in your life that maybe toxic. You come across like you sit in your lawn chair in the yard all day and everything is hunky dory. LOL!
@@Bachconcertos I'm 58 years old and have a lifetime of experience of toxic people, foods and ideas. I had chronic pain for 13 years and have been pain free for 14 years. I've been helping people around the world with my free daily videos. Learn more on my getting started page:

Thank you for doing this video. This makes perfect sense.
Glad it was helpful!
Sooooo interesting- that certainly explains a lot for me as usual!!! Many thanks for this message!
You are so welcome
Dan, great point on treating the symptoms vs the really treating the cause. Thank you so much for this video as you see from all the great comments from the community!
Thank you.
I have bad IBS problems when I'm having a episode with anxiety. My GI doctor told me, that I have microscopic colitis. I asked what causes it and she said stress.

I think my digestive symptom is related to my fear of food. I lost a bunch of weight years ago and go to the gym, so im afraid to eat more than my daily calories. I always say things like, "Oh no, i can't that because i dont have room or, " that's got a lot of calories in it."
Im suffering it now, actually since last 14 years on and off. But whenever im scared of the issue it is getting worse. But don’t knw how to control
I hope this video wil help me
This playlist will give you a deeper understanding and knowledge on how to handle symptoms caused by the brains perception of danger.

Great topic Dan!!! This is my question all the time cuz it doesn’t always feel like it belong to the TMS realm. I tend to have a lot of digestive issue, currently dealing with that and kidney stones. And noticed how fearful I feel inside. Been hard to implement TMS/ PDS that u teach. 😢 Thankyou for your videos.
Dan you are fantastic you emphasise what I have always known so have over seventy years of ibs anxiety chronic pain comes from tough childhood diet superb an 86 look act 66 heart blood good but pain insomnia living alone still terrifies me! Bp flucuates have faints from vasal vagus symtons how I know the answers but fear of pain and being alone stop me from living my truth! Docter’tell me I am very wise insightful etc but I must be dumbest student out there!
I always say my first TMS was 2015 prostatitus. No! I’ve examined my life. 1982-88 i had constipation. I was in my 30s and beyond fit. Freshly divorced & worked for my father. An ass! Hes 97 still an ass. I left the family business and it ended. He also caused the prostatitus imo too
Thanks Dad. LOL
Absolutely makes sense. Thank you!
FYI, the fecal transplants are done in the USA with a pharmaceutical capsule via mouth or rectally.
Nailed it!
Makes perfect sense to me! Thank you! This was really reassuring.
There is no doubt my constipation is due to fear. None, zero zip!
I was diagnosed with dyssynergy constipation, what is type when your muscles on the exit clinching when needed to relax. I am sure it’s TMS, but no much success so far, but your video gives me more hope 🙏🏻
I believe you are on the right path.
Dan you mentioned you have stress in life but don’t have pain. Would you be able to explain how we can also be able to have stress without symptoms?
Yes, stress is not the issue. The brain perceiving that stress as dangerous is the issue. Teaching the brain safety is the way forward. Fearing stress doesn't help. Knowing it's a normal part of life but is not dangerous is helpful. These videos can help.

Well, there are two sides to this. I was diagnosed with IBS at age 24 and lived with the symptoms for 24 years, in which I got the added diagnosis lactose intolerant. Then at 46, symptoms worsened. I thought it was mental, my brain stressing and panicking. At 49, diagnosed with stage 3c ovarian cancer. Those symptoms are very much the same as IBS.
Now I am recovered from the cancer. How can I trust that IBS-like symptoms are TMS/PDP, when I am told to look out for these symptoms as a sign of cancer recurrence?
With a previous cancer experience, it is very understandable to be on high alert. My take is this. You have had IBS symptoms your entire adult life. You had them 20 years before your cancer diagnosis. It is VERY likely that they were TMS / perceived danger symptoms all along caused by a suppressed digestive system.
In my opinion, I don't see the downside to teaching your brain you are safe and get out of the fight or flight - especially regarding digestion.

How about digestive issues following a new workout. EVERY time I start a workout routine I get gastritis and severe dizziness after doing it a few days. Dr said I have a small hiatal hernia but I don’t think that could cause the issues I have.

Fantastic, Dan! Thank you, soooooo helpful.
Glad to help.
True, thanks Dan!
Brilliant!
I get anxiety and stressed when my stomach issue's start i feel ok till then ,so my stomach starts everything off i dont think i would suffer so bad with my chronice pain and anxiety if i didnt have and upset stomach most days (bloating,discomfort, diarrhea and stomachache)the horrible stomach seems to come first then i panic and worry whats causing it.
So glad you talked about this. I have often found it hard to apply digestive issues to TMS so this helps. A question I have - the symptoms don't get better for me if I'm on a trip or out or distracted etc. They get worse. Possibly because i havent been able to do my stretches when im preoccupied - One of the symptoms is chronic burping and i need to keep doing stretches throughout the day to get them out. If I don't, it just builds up severely and leads to pain, difficulty breathing, cramps, diarrhoea etc. It's very hard to relax when I need to do such constant management. What are your thoughts on the fact that it worsens when I'm busy/happy/on trips etc?
Excellent! Can you please talk about respiratory allergies? I have rhinitis since I was a toddler. Trying to apply the mindbody concepts for it as well. I would love to hear your opinion about it, since you mentioned allergies and autoimmune issues in the video. Thanks!
When in the stress response / fight or flight - the immune system is suppressed and we can be more sensitive to allergens. As we employ the concepts of teaching the brain we are safe - particularly about the symptoms of allergies, the immune system can respond and be less reactive to the allergens.
@@PainFreeYou thank you, Dan! Do you know if it can be cured?
We will always have an immune response to allergens. Getting our system to be normal instead of hyper reactive is a big benefit. Is that a cure? Very subjective. Many have reported their allergies to be MUCH better by doing this work.
@@DeboraBettiol
@@PainFreeYou great perspective! Thank you for all you're doing to help us! Love your videos. I'm doing much better from pain symptons 🙏🫶
Ive had you know what begins w D since the finance industry collapsed in 2008. I knew then it was stress. However now 15 years later, still the case every morning. I know its become learned. I just dont pay attention bc in a way, i think i like getting all that sh%t (metaphorically) out of my body. I want to work on feeling safe to the core. Thanks as always Dan
You are welcome.
Hi Dan, I recently got into running and there's this weird 'medical' term called runner's stomach which basically implies that post running can cause digestive problems in some runners. For the longest time I was scared to try out running and I finally overcame that fear by telling myself any pain afterward is not because smth's wrong with me but rather TMS doing it's thing again. Would you consider digestive issues after any workout/exercise as part of perceived danger pain/TMS too?
If you eat a huge meal and go running, that may be legitimately not comfortable. But if the pain is severe, that is likely fear and perceived danger causing the intensity. Try not to fear. Running is a healthy endeavor.
How do you teach your brain your safe when your panicking and worried so much about whats wrong with you .
Dan, are you saying we can cure ulcerative colitis with pain free you method?
What I am saying is that being in the stress response affects both the digestive and immune system which can allow something like UC to occur. By teaching the brain we are safe and getting out of the stress response (fight or flight) more often, we optimize the body's ability to heal. It's not a guarantee, but it can help. I have also heard many are benefitting by a carnivore only diet. This video explains: czcams.com/video/P60Ce95078w/video.htmlsi=aj-kkEexfEPdFkHn
So interesting! I'm even figuring out that my adult chronic ear infections (that come with headaches and rashes) must also be TMS. I had been diagnosed with a "stealth" virus in my body. The symptoms flare up with stress. That "virus" can cause headaches and ear problems as well as many other issues, BUT, I started to think about it this week, after turning to my herbal "anti-viral" med, that my subconscious brain is trying to distract me and finds the easiest weak point in my body to use as a distraction. The virus may not leave, but it doesn't mean that I have to have symptoms! So, I'm using the "bring it on" technique, and telling the symptoms that they can stay there if they want to. So what! I'll have to see how this works out. I know I'm tired of having to deal with these flareups, and I most definitely have TMS in other processes of my body. My back pain has reduced tremendously since I've started doing some brain-retraining. I know that I can do this with my digestive issues and more!
I have had gut issues for the last 5 years. Mostly bloating pain when laying down. I have had every gastrointestinal test and they found nothing physical. I agree with your logic fight or flight is the underlying issue. I took the 6 week Nerva course by Monash University and it helped, but didn't solve my problems. I follow you and find your knowledge invaluable. I am a Vietnam Veteran and I'm pretty sure that is the underlying cause, but I don't know how to approach it to get it under control. VA group sessions don't seem to be the solution, can you recommend any other options?
First of all, thank you for your service. I'm not convinced you have to go back and deal with past traumas to get well. I like the concept of safety in the present. That's all we have anyway. The present moment. Once we feel safe, symptoms can begin to resolve.

@PainFreeYou thank you, I was under the assumption that I had to determine what caused the long-term cumulative fear cycle in order to come to terms with it. Watching your two linked videos definitely changed that perspective. I have nothing to fear except fear itself! Thank you for taking the time to help me, I appreciate it more than you know!!!
@@Xistorman My pleasure. Safety in the present is the way to calm the brain.
Anything ways to activate vagus nerve ?
I don't focus on body parts. I focus on teaching the brain we are safe overall and the brain will take care of the rest. DansFastStart.com lays out my overall take on what's going on and what to do about it.
Do you believe this applies to skin issues like acne?
It certainly can. When in the fight or flight response, the immune system can be suppressed. So that can possibly allow acne to occur. Not saying that's all there is to it, but there is zero downside to this approach. It can only help. czcams.com/video/g5xWR6eBlb8/video.html
I have been diagnosed with a hiatal hernia and GERD . I have chest pain and chest spasms daily. Do you believe that symptoms can be reduced using your method of safety? Thank you!
Hypnotherapy is said to help. Colitis doesn't mean anything. It means swollen colon. That says nothing about why.
I can tick 3 out of 4 of those boxes due to stress
Excellent. Safety is the way forward. czcams.com/video/Ez9Ez49M8Ig/video.html
My dr told me reflux is burning my tongue Hard to control the reflux
It is ALL controlled by the brain. Did the doctor tell you what is creating the reflux? Stress, Fear, the brains perception of danger.
I had a perfect 💩 when i knew i didnt have to go to the dentist any more. And went straight to vacation for a week. That 💩 was about 2 feet strong and healthy. Befor that for years was all loose. Had to be the mind.
