I’m sharing this video with you, as it is a stark reminder for those who at some point in their life have been fitter than they are right now. The same route was taken, with weight, slightly better apparel and yet the outcome ‘pain’ was vastly different.

Most people struggle with pain at some point in their life, and when it gets bad enough it can be a debilitating condition, the idea is acknowledge prior to this state and enforce positive change.

While pain has its obvious and sometimes devastating downside, our ability to feel physical pain is also part of maintaining our health and wellbeing. For a time, many doctors even referred to pain as “the fifth vital sign,” because it can be important to understanding the state of a person’s health, mental wellbeing and point to the presence of dis-ease.

When our pain receptors are working effectively, pain is a useful way for our bodies to tell our brains when a stimulus is a threat to our overall wellbeing. However, sometimes pain stops playing a protective role.

Chronic pain can occur when you are unable to effectively treat the underlying condition causing the pain, but it can also happen when there isn’t an underlying disease at all.

At that point, pain ceases to be an effective indicator that something is wrong with the body and becomes a dis-ease unto itself.
