Learn How You Can Use Your Body's Own Physiology to Reduce Chronic Pain and Symptoms

In today's video I teach you a couple simple techniques to use your body's own physiology to reduce chronic pain and symptoms.
The purpose of these fast and easy techniques is to dial down the "fight or flight" system.
Why do we do this? We do this to assure the brain that you are safe. These messages of safety help to weaken the neural circuit loop that has wired pain and symptoms into your body.
Great for anxiety as well!

Thank you Dr. Christine…..valuable info!

Yep, I'm a fast talker, fast thinker and a perfectionist. That's me in a nutshell! I shall be more mindful and slow things down and incorporate these breathing exercises into my day a little bit, here and there, every day.
Thank you. Xx

I understand, that's me as well. I find that intentionally slowing down has pleasant effects in all areas of life. Thanks for your note.

Just that last comment about slowing things down was something I never even thought about. After so many years of working at a fast pace environment slowing things down after retirement is beginning to ease some of the pain. Thanks 😊

Hi, It's nearly impossible to not get swept into the rapid pace of modern life. Especially in societies that value production over most everything else. It's no wonder the nervous system feels constantly under attack. I'm glad to hear slowing your pace has been helpful.

Hi Christine! I saw a video of yours a year ago that clued me into the idea that my problems might be due to autism. As a 54 yo, that was a bit of an unexpected idea, but in July of 2023 I was indeed diagnosed with autism!
Even though I was subscribed, your videos did not show up in my feed on YT until I chose "all notifications", just FYI.
I'll be tuning in as I have fibromyalgia. It is definitely a nervous, trauma response. I would like to have a better handle on it, as meds that help have unfortunate side effects. Ty!

Hello, Thanks for your note. I'm glad you're here and exploring the videos about chronic pain. I was also in my 50s when I was diagnosed with ASD. The neurodivergent mind is possibly more sensitive to the conditions that lead to chronic pain, but these techniques will definitely still help! Thanks for being here.
