So, you know, sometimes it can be really obvious things.

Is the pain worse in the morning or at night?
What things make your pain better or worse?
Besides medications I'm talking about, I always feel okay when I'm doing X, Y, or Z.

Guys like John Sarno, people have done this for some time.

Maybe medications are necessary for certain things like migraine headaches.
There's new classes of medications, neuropathic pain.
That can be, you know, that sort of lancinating, terrible lightning-like pain that you get in your arm or your legs.
Some of those, you may need medications.
But the idea that despite those medications, you continue to have chronic pain, what are your triggers for that?
Figuring out what those triggers are will, I think, be the first step towards training your brain.
