It doesn't matter if it's doubt about the color you picked for your wall, if God is good, or if you have MindBodySyndrome, doubt will cause dividedness within your brain & body.

If you are anything like me, you experience unhelpful, dysregulating thoughts that seem to just stick around. They almost feel attacking.
These thoughts are often the culprit for fear/ stress symptoms in our bodies, and so taking the time to stop, look at them and simply notice them, can help create the separation you need from these thoughts.
You are not your thoughts. You are a child of God.
Enjoy!

By using the senses that God gave us, we can orient our attention towards our surroundings and even enjoy them.
This activity can be used when you are feeling a sense of panic, urgent energy, spiraling thoughts and especially when you are having a symptom flare up. It’s foundational principles come from Peter Levine.
It is a simple way of actively re-training your subconscious brain to notice the simple ways in which you are safe.

If you have ever wondered for who and under what conditions people heal (or don't) from mind body syndrome/ psychophysiologic disorders, then this podcast is for you!
For me, the fascinating part of this conversation is discuss why people *don't heal.
Douglas Guiffrida has done qualitative research around this very subject. After he did the study, he discovered the following to be of importance: belief of mind body connection, willingness to experience & express emotions, and do the homework. He also discovered the importance of secondary gains.

If you have a child with chronic symptoms of any sort, you will want to listen to this one. There is so much hope - your child can reverse their symptoms by understanding the mind body connection. And you can be their support.
Dr. Kinderman and Dr. Yanek work with children & teens with chronic pain by using playful, interesting ways of teaching them about the brain's role in their symptoms.
In this interview we talk about their personal pain healing stories, the benefits & challenges of working with kids (opposed to adults) & also advice for the parents to be able to support their child in the journey of healing.
Kinderman and Yanek recently did a TED talk on their therapy model. Here is the link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_way1hFaV80

In this conversation Charlie Merrill (Physical Therapist) and I talk about going from avoidance to movement and why it's so important for overcoming conditioned responses.
That being said, it's scary to reintroduce movement when it's so painful, so we address this fear & with some tips to overcome it.
I also ask him if the following diagnosis or labels are the cause of pain or not?
Muscle Weakness,
Ehlor Danlos,
Inflammation,
Plantar Fasciitis,
High Arches,
Does aging cause pain? and more.
Here are the links to Charlie's resources. Enjoy!

Medical Imaging can be really misleading. What if the normal abnormality you see on your MRI isn’t actually the cause of your pain.
**This information is not a substitute for medical advice; always consult with a healthcare professional for personalized guidance related to your health.
More and more research is showing that we all have normal abnormalities such as:
disk signal loss (ie, desiccated disk),
disk height loss,
disk bulge,
disk protrusion,
annular fissures,
facet degeneration,
and spondylolisthesis,
and even abnormalities in the knees, hips and pelvic area don’t have to cause pain.
The studies I quote today are cited below:

Thought By Thought Healing is a podcast for those looking to overcome chronic pain & symptoms.
I am Jen Johnson, chronic pain coach, and this show is focused on discussing everything related to curing persistent symptoms with evidence-based techniques. I am a Christian and when I first discovered the mind-body syndrome - also referred to as TMS, neuroplastic pain, & neural circuit pain - I was struck by how the neuroscience of pain and the mind body connection align perfectly with scripture. I recovered from my own story of pain as I understood how our thoughts, beliefs, attitudes & emotions played out in the nervous system in ways I never knew was possible. On this show, I interview experts in the field & discuss the intersection of the gospel & mind-body medicine. I also openly share tools I used in my own healing journey, and still use today with my clients.
My hope is that you, too, will learn how to heal. Reversing chronic pain includes emotional, mental and spiritual healing. It truly changes your life; something you don’t want to miss out on. Thought by thought, you can find freedom. Welcome to the journey.
