How Can I Overcome Pain?
There are a lot of techniques that can help minimize chronic pain, or lessen the amount of acute pain that reaches our brains. Pain tolerance is based on stress management. Keeping a happy, healthy mind when we aren't feeling pain makes it easier to close the gates. Using resiliency techniques such as self-calming mechanisms are a great way to train our brains to make our bodies feel better or forget about pain altogether. Try some of these during your weekly routine or during moments of pain.
