As a 42 yr RN, I understand the basis for this topic. Being mindful. Nursing took it toll, in addition to not being in optimal shape for too many years. In ER and ICU so adrenalin was my daily normal. I have had 2 back surgeries, one in 1977 and then spinal decompression for stenosis and neuropathy in 2021. Incidentally, my restless leg syndrome is almost gone since the surgery. I am finding out through prayer and higher consciousness/Christ consciousness that my left arm and hand neuropathy is due to posture but most specifically "unable to hold head up." shame filled and trust issues. My left-hand neuropathy is better, in fact none for 2 weeks. No more surgery for me. Going to Silver Sneakers, focus on balance and weight training and also paying attention to my body. Another important lesson: talk to your body. Thank your weight bearing joints for their many years of service and support and locomotion.
Here on TH-cam Mark Wildman has a channel. He has a series of simple exercises/strength for overweight and beginners. Very easy to understand him, you don’t feel like they judge you and he gives alternative suggestions until you have the strength. My knees are shot. It’s getting stronger now and my balance has improved. Only been at it a week but it’s the first time I feel like I am actually improving my body. Give it a look there are many over 60’s training with it.😁
An unexpected gem of an interview! Guests like this elevate the quality of this channel. Enjoyed addressing chronic pain treatment beyond artifacts of assumed past-life injustices accompanied with obscure profundities about the meaning of the universe and beyond.
This is so great! 20 years ago I was healed of 4 years of unremitting buttock pain after learning about Dr John sarno's method. this talk helped remind me again how important state of mind is
I have pain that won’t stop. It’s so bad I can hurt myself (stub my toe, catch a nail and gash myself, etc) and the pain from these hurts is like a mosquito bite when It register’s. I’m fascinated by this. I just got to the point he mentioned rubbing forehead and burst out laughing! When hubby and I fight and he’s being an unreasonable ass my stomach gets sick (I have puked) and I take my finger and rub up and down my third eye. This calms me and starts setting my stomach. It works every time.
I found this really helpful. Can I also suggest lemon balm? It is a calmative and is very underestimated in my opinion. It helps sleep because it eases anxiety and relaxes the muscles. I have been taking a teaspoonful of lemon balm tincture before bed for about a year and seldom need to take a painkiller or an antacid tablet...used to get terrible indigestion. It is an easy herb to grow, pick enough to tear up and fill a jam jar, pour on 80%proof vodka to the top, cap, shake daily and after 6 weeks strain off the leaves. Take a teaspoonful under the tongue before bed. Amazing. Tension is a terrible thing and this really helps.
"What can we do to help society become a more safe place for people?" - this is the big question. I think the only way forward to reforming or creating better systems is to re-align incentives. When the personal (greed) incentive is aligned with serving the greater good, there seems to be less friction. I am reminded of a story I heard where the (Chinese?) village doctor only receives his full salary when everyone in his village is well. He would then be naturally motivated by personal greed to keep the village well, & this would obviously lead him to preventative medicine programs. I have no idea if it's true... but it's an example that has caused me to reflect on many of our current systems, and why they don't function properly... because essentially we have incentivized criminality and 'sin' in the pursuit of 'getting ahead'. I find myself in constant concern for the state of the world, and wonder why it's not more obvious to all. I'm grateful to have found this interview, and have been suffering severe lower back pain 4+ years now... yet I won't consider surgery. The things you say about the medical business have always been obvious to me... just like banks, governments and on and on. I think awareness of this is causing me pain. Weltschmerz perhaps? You helped me understand my underlying constant survival threat, that I ignored as I've always been 'the capable accomplisher' and very much done it all alone. Even though spiritually I believe I am cosmically always safe and taken care of, and I count my blessings and compared to most... I can't complain... yet I'm sure, inside, I constantly do. I will now add writing and 'choose joy' to my meditation, prayer and yoga practice.... oh look at that. I just did. Thank you.
I learned so much from this insightful interview, thank you! I am going to read Dr. Hanscom's book to learn more about his methods. Another New Thinking Aloud home run!! :-)
Wow! I'm really taken by Polyvagal Theory that sees safety as the deepest evolutionary need. As Gabor Mate puts it, safety isn't the removal of threat but the 'presence of connection'. Think what applying this to chronic pain sufferers could do. Also, if chronic pain is a stress response symptom then, basically, ending capitalism would heal more than anything else!
Thank you so much Doctor. BTW I feel some anxiety is a vitamin deficiency in the body so I take Stress Complex B Vitamin Blue Bonnet. I was hit four years ago drunk driver. Stay Strong Everything and Survive the Fight.
The title of this interview is misleading. I have physical back pain which gets worse if I don't sit with a good posture. How does any advice in this video help me with that? I got nothing from it. But I still love this channel.
Apparently you did and didn't even realize, the good doctor managed to subconsciously direct you to spend a minute on writing down your thoughts about feeling pain. Some people...pain is the scenery, look towards the horizon and keep on loving this channel and everything else.
Dearest Jay_Kay, i hear what you're saying, get your point, and wish you well. Everything he said in the video aligns with your situation. May I encourage you to try expressive writing, (and vagus nerve exercises), and see the difference it makes to your back pain? 'Belief work' around the back pain, and the good posture will surely help. Btw, sitting in a good posture isn't a bad thing, right? Much love from India
I just suggested Mark Wildman TH-cam channel. Her has a series on beginners and overweight that addresses core strength and posture. I really like him, he isn’t condescending like many fitness types are and he gives you easy anyone can do activities that you can build on as you get stronger. I have been at it a week and I am improving. It sounds perfect for what you described. Good luck 🍀
@@michaelh6743 Its lower back for me. I have a prolapsed disc at L5 S1, impinging on a nerve that’s giving me symptoms down my left leg and causing numbness and weakness in my left foot. I’m an active athletic person and this injury came from nowhere and is gradually getting worse. I’ve seen 2 consultants and my options are a steroid injection which may give periodic relief from pain & symptoms, or surgery which as the good doctor said in this video only has a 22% success rate if you’re lucky enough not to get additional pain / symptoms. So I need to figure out how to live with it I guess.
as observer of 'meta consciousness' phenomena mr Hanscom as spinal surgeon in chronic pain disease and also the experiencer seem has similarities that what happened to mr Alexander as neuro surgeon.. not sure whether both Doctors was 'infected' by their patients, if that so maybe the possibility that in the auric/subtle body the infection happened 'meta consciously'.. since the anxiety is generated by cortisol hormone as product of adrenal gland in the area of 'survival brain' or 'abdominal brain' and through spinal system it communicated with 'primary brain' as the human central of psychology and physiology which can be disrupted by imbalance of hormonal system.. about covid pandemic 58:00, before vaccine 'discovered' to 'cure' the disease is by using the corticosteroids or prednisone base pharmaceutical and seem to control the cortisol hormone just to lower the anxiety level and heal the disease..
I like the message, but find the speaker is difficult to understand. I’ve listened to this thing twice, and still can’t clearly understand various parts of his message. He speaks too quickly, runs his words together, and needs to articulate more clearly. Sorry….not tying to be mean, it is just public speaking 101.

@@kariannecrysler640 Thank you; I'm heading over to Mark's you tube channel NOW!!
This is phenomenal information. It will help so many people. The doctor should take joy in how many people he has helped.

I use this too! And catnip tincture helps
❤I also use this. Vimergy sells a great lemon balm tincture. One dropperful works great before bedtime.
Fascinating interview, helped me to see my health problems differently, knowing I can do a lot about it is inspiring. Thank you.

What a poor psychotherapist he had!
Wonderful approach from David, highly powerful and congruent with my experience in facilitating healing for others
Can anybody guide me to the writing method that was mentioned
Hi Ahmed, It's called expressive writing. See backincontrol.com/the-4-stages/stage-1-laying-the-foundation/begin-expressive-writing/
Dr. John Sarno
L5 S1 Won't leave me alone!
as observer of 'meta consciousness' phenomena mr Hanscom as spinal surgeon in chronic pain disease and also the experiencer seem has similarities that what happened to mr Alexander as neuro surgeon..
not sure whether both Doctors was 'infected' by their patients, if that so maybe the possibility that in the auric/subtle body the infection happened 'meta consciously'..
since the anxiety is generated by cortisol hormone as product of adrenal gland in the area of 'survival brain' or 'abdominal brain' and through spinal system it communicated with 'primary brain' as the human central of psychology and physiology which can be disrupted by imbalance of hormonal system..
about covid pandemic 58:00, before vaccine 'discovered' to 'cure' the disease is by using the corticosteroids or prednisone base pharmaceutical and seem to control the cortisol hormone just to lower the anxiety level and heal the disease..
🙏💙💙🙏
