  • Let's Meditate Together: A little bit of talk and a little bit of guided meditation.

    In this episode, I talk a bit about meditation and how it helps those of us with chronic pain. It's not the end of the discussion, but it's a good start. After the short, commercial break we meditate together for about five minutes. The type of meditation we do in this episode is called anapana, which means mindfulness of breath. There is no religion or belief necessary to do this meditation, only that you believe in your own breath and you observe it for five minutes. 

    Please do leave me a voice message, the link is below. I'd love to hear what you think about meditation and this technique. If you have any questions or comments, you may leave me a voice message, or email me at [email protected]. On the website, there is a blog and more about me at thepainguru.com. There is a link below if you'd like to support the podcast. Thank you for listening!

  • A Chronic Pain Patient Has COVID-19: My experience and boosting your immunity

    In this episode, I talk about what it was like, as someone who has chronic pain, to have COVID-19. Also discussed is how I feel today, one and one-half months since I was cleared from isolation by my local county health department.


    I also talked about "the immunity lifestyle," what it takes to build and maintain a healthy immune system.  The following is the link to the Harvard Medical School article, How to Boost Your Immune System, as mentioned in the episode: https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/how-to-boost-your-immune-system.

    I wish you and yours all the best in staying healthy, avoiding COVID-19, and building your best immune systems. Thanks so much for listening!

    Now go forth, Feelin' Guru-vy!
