ACT in Perspective - A prosocial podcast using behavioral science to address human suffering
#1: Season 1, Ep 1 - ACT and Chronic Pain Management
18 Dec 2020
Forget what you think you know about pain. It has less to do with tissue damage and much more with how our minds process information! Come listen to Paul Lagerman, Physiotherapist out of Auckland, New Zealand, who teaches the art of the relationship between our bodies and our experiences. We're often looking at the pain model the wrong way. It's not about liberating ourselves from the sensation of pain so much as liberating ourselves from our own suffering through increasing our psychological flexibility. There are plenty of chronic pain patients who have been brought back from the brink of madness to now living full and happy lives. It's true. So, if you or someone you care about is living with chronic pain and are experiencing the exhaustion and anguish that goes with it, this podcast may help guide you in the right direction.
