DR SARNO'S 12 DAILY REMINDERS I walk you through all 12 and add my take as well. Don't forget to subscribe and hit the notification bell so you don't miss future videos.
Daily Reminders (12) summary: 1. The pain is from TMS and not from any structural abnormalities 2. The direct reason for the pain is mild oxygen deprivation 3. TMS is a harmless condition caused by my repressed emotions 4. The principle of motion is my repressed anger 5. TMS only exists to distract my attention from the emotions 6. Since my back or other body part is basically normal, there is nothing to fear 7. Therefore physical activity is not dangerous 8. And I must resume all normal physical activity 9. I will not be concerned or intimidated by the pain or symptoms 10. I will shift my attention from the pain or symptoms to the emotions 11. I intend to be in control, not my subconcious mind 12. I must think psychological at all times, not physical
But I do have a estructural problem which is stenosis between L4 and L5 wich makes my legs hurt and feel numb. And depression and I don't know anymore what is causing what which encreases the depressed feeling and the disconfort in the legas...anyway..I feel hopeless.... Inspite of that I still swiming 3, 4 timeas a week and do some bodybuilding...just some...and walk the dog and some house work.
@@selmo6376I find it very helpful to remind myself that many people are walking around, fully active in life, whom have Stenosis, Herniated Disc, or whom are completely unaware that they have a “diagnosis.” We suffer because we have a psychological need to validate our emotional pain. Ask why we felt so good to receive what we considered a “legitimate diagnosis.” We give the blame to our body instead of processing the emotion that warns us that we have legitimized the shame/blame cycle of pain. Being dis-abled re-lie-ves us from needing to meet expectations that overwhelm us.
God Bless Dr Sarno. I will hug him in heaven. He saved me from a life in a wheelchair!! I"m 67 and play racquetball, stairmaster, lift weights every day! 2005, I was told I had 'degenerative disk disease', back pain and would never exercise again! ER Doc --Big Liar! Dr. Sarno, the Answer!!
I have been through a lot of this in my last 20 years with TMS. One thing I can add is that feeling your anger/emotions is not the same thing as thinking about them or analyzing them or mentally blaming others, etc. I went a long time trying to shift my attention to my repressed emotions, but all I was doing is more thinking. That made my nervous system more tense. Feeling your anger/grief/etc. is different than thinking about them. Even yelling out loud while mentally blaming your parents or others who have wronged you is likely not going to help, but just keep you in a tense angry hate-filled state. I even did psychodynamic therapy to try to uncover the repressed emotions, and it didn't work, because it was just making me angrier. I never actually felt my repressed emotions, I just thought about them more, and developed more mental anger. My mind was likely guessing at why I have rage deep inside, rather than actually feeling the rage. You don't need to know why you have rage inside. You just need to tend to the rage. Feel it. Be with it. But don't analyze it. It might not make any sense why you have rage. Don't worry about that. Just be with the rage like you are holding an angry baby that you are comforting. The real you is bigger than the rage or guilt or grief. It can handle it. Your mind cannot solve your mind. There is something greater in you than your mind. Be that.
@@scrumptiousjdp I am sure there are some videos here on this page that address this issue in more detail. But I can say that for me, just sitting still and meditating for half an hour causes deep seeded emotions to surface after about 15 minutes or so. I can witness anger and rage arise without thinking about the anger or rage during meditation. I even sometimes yell out loud without knowing why. A book called the Presence Process also deals with the issue of repressed trapped emotions. I have heard that EFT/tapping helps as well, but I haven't really tried that. This is not an easy thing to deal with, as the mind seems to have automatic defenses in place to stop you from feeling your emotions. But I am pretty sure that more thinking or talking about your trauma/rage/emotional pain is not going to release it or integrate it. It just keeps it alive.
Dr. Sarno changed my life from being practically disabled to being able to lift anything without fear. I still remember my appointment with him like it was yesterday. He was my last stop before surgery after trying everything else. RIP. Going to go do some heavy deadlifts now.😄
I was thinking about quitting my golf league because of the pain. Then i saw this video. I put the 12 daily reminders on my phone. I forced myself to play golf, all the while reading the 12 over and over in between holes. It did hurt while playing but I didn't let it intimidate me. I kept thinking maybe id stop if the pain got worse, but i kept parring holes. I ended up having my best round in years, 76. All because I saw this video, thanks so much!!
Damn - 76 is a great score. If you want to take this work farther, Watch my fast start playlist over and over till these concepts sink in: ua-cam.com/play/PLRJmnkn2kTTIl4frNvmpenr49xcTmVl2H.html
Thank you. John Sarno never had the credit he deserved. He had the guts to stand by his theory. As a health care professional I can clearly state without fear of contradiction that modern medicine is a million miles away from reality. We can do so much with our minds. I just wish as Dr Gabor said that modern medicine should not be saying "what wrong is with you". They should say "what happened to you". I wish you all well peeps on your journey. Namaste.
If you have a sense that there are other feeling states sending distress into your body, try reading Somatic Internal Family Systems Therapy by Susan McConnell. She offers a map and techniques to meet with these internal emotional states that need your love and understanding.
Best way to get to the root of any pain or discomfort in the body is, while you're experiencing pain, ask yourself "How does this make me feel?", put an emotional word on it. Once you come up with the emotion, anger, frustration, etc. realize that emotion was there long before the pain showed up. That emotion had to get loud enough to get your attention. Pain is just an "Indicator" of how you've been feeling.
Dr. Sarno's "Healing Back Pain" helped cure my lower back, glutes and hamstring pain many years ago. I was an active person going through some challenging personal problems at that time. A rheumatologist recommended the book to me. I gave my original copy to my daughter's friend's dad and he was able to cancel his scheduled back surgery after reading it. TMS is real!
I believe this. I'm a very angry person but I hide it. I'm angry with my parents and family. Such a horrible childhood. I'm also angry with how humans treat this planet and all the other animals who live here. I eat a healthy diet and get plenty of sleep but STILL have back pain. I notice when I stop focusing on it and get out and do things that make me happy the pain subsides.
That's the trick. We want to teach our brains that we can be angry without the back pain. My suggestions are here: ua-cam.com/video/3vJgBnrhFt8/v-deo.html
Totally relate, I am vegan too. I feel I have to be strong and constantly control hide my anger when people show zero compassion for animals etc. Childhood trauma, politics, work etc. And I think these videos of Dan's and Dr. Sarno are a life saver already.
Dan, you helped me feel better tonight, as I realized I was freaking out about my pain and not focused on my emotions. I like asking myself, "How are you feeling right now?" That really helps to identify what is going on. Sometimes I think I know how I feel, but my pain doesn't let up. But when I answered, "Anger," and allowed myself to feel that anger physically, my pain started to subside. Also, trying to stay patient with the process and not get down on myself if the pain isn't MAGICALLY IMMEDIATELY eliminated. Thank you!
Thank you so much for summarizing the so important 12 daily reminders of Dr John Sarno .This accurate in concise talk is by all means getting to the very heart of Sarno's wisdom As a matter of fact this talk is so effective and you also can see that it really comes from a True Believer So it resulted in me Listening To it So many times again and again until things get really assimilated into me years ago I suffered from a terrible neck and shoulder pain and by listening to your lecture I really succeeded getting over this pain completely only by mental power and deep understanding Thank you Dan for doing this incredible work Wish you all Health and Pain free life
More truth is revealed to those who seek it. I stumbled upon a Sarno book in 1994 at the library. Changed my life. I have personally helped dozens of people get better after recommending his work.
Thank you, Dan. I have listened to this two consecutive nights before sleeping. This has helped remind me about putting my mind in check and seeing what I am angry about. I recently had a terrible flare-up after being pain-free for eight months or so. I have had two epidurals two weeks apart. I have been feeling like I am having a stroke of some sort. I have chest pain that radiator down my arm and back. The tremendous amount of stress I have been feeling with work, finances, and my personal life threw me into this catastrophic episode of TMS. It feels like my body has turned on me entirely. I need to acknowledge that I am angry and scared and need to let it out. I need to remind myself that my body is not "diseased." I am going to listen to this till it becomes embedded into my subconscious. Thank you and Dr. Sarnos for this.
I'm sorry that you are going through all this. Let's go back to basics. You can learn the foundation of what I teach on my getting started page: www.PainFreeYou.com/start
Dr. Sarno was SO ahead of his time! I had chronic back pain and after reading Healing Back pain....it went away. I have done this with other pains...and it WORKS. Thanks for carrying his work forward and making it even more public!
Reading 'The Divided Mind' was wild for me. As Sarno listed different phantom symptoms, I kept thinking, "yeah I have that, that, that, that, and that." Ha! For me it feels like suppressed anxiety more than suppressed anger. As I deny the physical symptoms, the anxiety comes back, and I am forced to search and figure out why I am anxious. Usually it's as simple as keeping myself busy, and introducing myself into social scenarios in order to genuinely feel better. The book, "the meaning of anxiety" by Rollo May is a great read if anyone has psychosomatic issues related to anxiety.
25 years of docs, pills, er's and hospitals.. GONE! Yes I read all his books! ps, my ex rays were not pretty... "normal abnormality" I was the biggest skeptic too!
@@PainFreeYou Can chronic dizziness be from TMS? I have 2 pages of symptoms that go with this.. I've had all tests therapy nothing. I had a horrible childhood of abandonment. I have never felt safe.. I know I have repressed emotions.. Im in a cycle of fear of the symptoms..I've had severe anxiety and panic since age 9.. Stomach issues headaches weird vision and hearing issues.. And have been in fight or flight for years and years.. Lots of stress and sadness the last 10 years.. The dizziness off balance weird sensations came on like 5 years ago but was barely there.. Last year when lockdown hit it morphed into something debilitating.. My anxiety is so bad...I feel like it's TMS.. TMS can be different symptoms not just back pain right?
@@janiceince6221, I have also had many of those symptoms for years, and now at 63 I am starting to feel better than I did at 50! I suppose retirement has helped me but I also meditate daily, do positive reinforcement, changed my thoughts and story, do slow movement exercises, and go cycling for fun. The gentle head and neck stretches and self massage have really helped with 50 yrs of migraines and 20 of tinnitus! There is a way out of this. Still working on digestive issues, have drastically changed my eating habits. If you want more info on what I have done to achieve a sense of security and wellbeing, PM me. Believing you CAN do this is the best start.
I wish more people knew Dr. Sarno before he passed. I do data entry and I type non stop for 9 hours a day and I had bad carpel tunnel. But I read his books and followed his steps and literally all the pain went away. The Dr’s don’t want you to know about this because they want you to keep paying for expensive rehab and medicine. This stuff is real, TMS.
You're the best! Here I am, having an epiphany one month short of my 61st birthday. Been watching you, and today it's really clicked. All of those years of misery..
My own experience is that any symptom can be the distraction, whether it’s pain or disrupted function ( and I WON’T fill in the blanks there 🙃. ) Thanks for making this information available on a wider scale!
I'm puzzled - I don't repress my anger, was taught to process and express it young. A good therapist told me anger repressed becomes depression, and to write them out and express them calmly. Bless him! So I rarely repressed anger. I have repressed grief, however, in the past, and realized that I repressed fear unconsciously - so it's more than just repressed anger. But a ton of inescapable stress led to chronic fatigue syndrome and later fibromyalgia. I rid myself of most of both for 6 years - but another ton of stress led to a relapse. This is all very helpful - it takes away the worst fear of pain. So I still dance and take long walks, - just not as hard or long as I've done in the past.
Thank you for this 👍 3yr suffering here ive lost my hobbies, friends, and my work . Im experience fear every morning its my first thought then stress as i get no financial support and the worries of how i will survive. Reading sarnos book giving me hope . Thanks for continuing his work .
@@aashish551 I am feeling fantastic for the past 14 years or so. I had X-Rays in my 30's and had disc degeneration back then. I'm 57 now and likely have a LOT more. But I feel great. No pain. That's why I teach this stuff. DansUA-cam.com for my free daily coaching videos.
@@aashish551 hi thank you for your comment . Ive had 2 mri and cat scan + xrays mild disc degen but they said i should be fine with that so doc cant help me . I am a little better but it seems to be a slow process, but i really believe in tms as now when i push myself the pain moves so fast . I walk back hurting then move to middle back then upper thigh , then headach etc . Ive managed to find a job i can do but only just by the end of day im in a lot of pain . But at least im working now 4months ago i though i would never work again 👍👍 ps also thank Dan for your work 😀

thank you so much for your devotion to keep dr sarnos therapy and knowledge alive. i found this theory years ago. lost it and found it again . i wish more people could find it and understand it .... use it and be pain free
Thank you so much, this is so helpful. I really needed to hear this (: Your video really gave me focus and the reminders are absolutely important. Dr. Sarno was right.
I really needed to hear this. Read Sarno’s book a couple years back and dealing with a nasty wave of emotional pain manifesting itself in physical issues which is creating more anxiety. This helped me slow down the “hamster wheel “ I’m on so hopefully I can get off it soon.
My pleasure. The key fundamentals are on my getting started page: www.PainFreeYou.com/start Then, watch the Recent videos starting with this one: ua-cam.com/video/qbkb3kyWd9A/v-deo.html My archive is: DansUA-cam.com
My piriformis syndrome pain has not gone away for a year. An MRI says my muscle is normal. I am an anxious person but no one wanted talk about how my personality might be bringing on the pain. I am going to do the 12 daily reminders . Thank you so much for this video. You did great.
Thank you for the kind words. Come join us on Facebook in a private group. Lots of great discussions happening. My 2 cents - priformis pain is TMS. facebook.com/groups/PainFreeYou/ Also, be sure to check out the archive of my past videos. Over 200 of them. ua-cam.com/users/PainFreeYouvideos
I’m brand new to this as of this morning. I went on a 1.8 mile walk while reminding myself that “I am fine“. Every once in a while, I could feel my body tighten up and the pain begin to express itself, then I would roll out the “I am fine“ phrase and it would immediately go away. If that isn’t convincing I don’t know what is! I could go on about what I have been diagnosed with which is about three or four or five things, but for me, I see a way out with this TMS! I wish you the best of luck.
Great video. I’ve been reading those reminders daily and I’ve found they help me stay focused on the psychology of TMS. I actually consulted with Dr. Sarno in NYC about 18 years ago. To make a long story short, it wasn’t until recently that I finally and completely have accepted his TMS diagnosis on me. The pain has kept me distracted all these years. But I started the recovery process again and I’ve found your videos extremely helpful. I really like how you say in one of your other videos “as long as we keep our minds focused on the pain and not on our emotional issues, the brain (syndrome) wins. It has us fooled. “ Thank you for posting your videos and helping so many people like myself. God speed.
Great video, and really relaxing to watch - especially with the birds in the background. Just getting refocused on trusting this diagnosis after having a flare-up again recently. So wonderful to know that even after years of pain you can fully recover and feel even better than before! Congratulations on your recovery and thank you so much for sharing these tips and giving this reminder.
It's possible. Here's the quick start: Watch the video at: PainFreeYou.com to learn what causes most pain and why it becomes chronic.

Thanks for the video. Its a great way to remind myself of Dr Sarno. 8 years ago I accidentally came across his book on Amazon and decided to give it a try. I was suffering from back pain for 5 years before that. I had tried everything up to that point. The first Dr I saw did an MRI and found some bulging disc. He put enough fear in me that it took several reading for Dr Sarno before I could get rid of my conditioning. Today I play tennis regularly. I do get pain occasionally but need to remind myself of Sarno or reread his book. But watching your video was a quick way to remind me of the basic principles and feel better immediately. Thanks again for the video. We need folks like you spread the word of Dr Sarno. Thanks again!
Thank you Thank you.... everything you spoke I’ve gone through and even having lumbar fusion,but still struggling with pain. I’m so grateful for Gabby Bernstein for introducing me to Dr. Sarnos philosophy, And grateful to you for reiterating the 12 steps,and adding your experiences, in which resonates with my own experiences..
Hey Tia - the best way to move forward is my getting started page. Go through the resources on that page to get a fast start on recovery. www.PainFreeYou.com/start
Loved this. My pain returned after a couple of years (thanks 2020!) and I needed this reminder. Good video, soothing voice, laid out in an interesting and thoughtful way. Thanks!!
This was the first TMS video of yours that I watched 8mos ago. It came up and I've rewatched. So enlightening. I needed to refresh myself. Thank you again
I've been following your work for about a month now. Read 2 Dr Sanro books, and this stuff actually works. Yes I still get pain but its dialed down a bit and I care a whole lot less about it. Thanks for your good advice.

@@selmo6376I find it very helpful to remind myself that many people are walking around, fully active in life, whom have Stenosis, Herniated Disc, or whom are completely unaware that they have a “diagnosis.” We suffer because we have a psychological need to validate our emotional pain.

Yep - thrilled that you are doing great. Sarno rocks.
@@PainFreeYou Can chronic dizziness be from TMS?
I have 2 pages of symptoms that go with this.. I've had all tests therapy nothing. I had a horrible childhood of abandonment. I have never felt safe.. I know I have repressed emotions.. Im in a cycle of fear of the symptoms..I've had severe anxiety and panic since age 9.. Stomach issues headaches weird vision and hearing issues.. And have been in fight or flight for years and years.. Lots of stress and sadness the last 10 years.. The dizziness off balance weird sensations came on like 5 years ago but was barely there.. Last year when lockdown hit it morphed into something debilitating.. My anxiety is so bad...I feel like it's TMS.. TMS can be different symptoms not just back pain right?
@@janiceince6221, I have also had many of those symptoms for years, and now at 63 I am starting to feel better than I did at 50! I suppose retirement has helped me but I also meditate daily, do positive reinforcement, changed my thoughts and story, do slow movement exercises, and go cycling for fun. The gentle head and neck stretches and self massage have really helped with 50 yrs of migraines and 20 of tinnitus! There is a way out of this. Still working on digestive issues, have drastically changed my eating habits. If you want more info on what I have done to achieve a sense of security and wellbeing, PM me. Believing you CAN do this is the best start.
I wish more people knew Dr. Sarno before he passed. I do data entry and I type non stop for 9 hours a day and I had bad carpel tunnel. But I read his books and followed his steps and literally all the pain went away. The Dr’s don’t want you to know about this because they want you to keep paying for expensive rehab and medicine. This stuff is real, TMS.
You're the best! Here I am, having an epiphany one month short of my 61st birthday. Been watching you, and today it's really clicked. All of those years of misery..

thank you!
My own experience is that any symptom can be the distraction, whether it’s pain or disrupted function ( and I WON’T fill in the blanks there 🙃. )
Thanks for making this information available on a wider scale!
"living in the memory of the pain" So true.
Good work, thank you!
Thank you for your help. 💕
I'm puzzled - I don't repress my anger, was taught to process and express it young. A good therapist told me anger repressed becomes depression, and to write them out and express them calmly. Bless him! So I rarely repressed anger. I have repressed grief, however, in the past, and realized that I repressed fear unconsciously - so it's more than just repressed anger. But a ton of inescapable stress led to chronic fatigue syndrome and later fibromyalgia. I rid myself of most of both for 6 years - but another ton of stress led to a relapse. This is all very helpful - it takes away the worst fear of pain. So I still dance and take long walks, - just not as hard or long as I've done in the past.
THANK YOU

Old dirt bikes way r ur symptoms and how r u feeling now?? Did u get an mri??
@@aashish551 I am feeling fantastic for the past 14 years or so. I had X-Rays in my 30's and had disc degeneration back then. I'm 57 now and likely have a LOT more. But I feel great. No pain. That's why I teach this stuff. DansUA-cam.com for my free daily coaching videos.
@@aashish551 hi thank you for your comment . Ive had 2 mri and cat scan + xrays mild disc degen but they said i should be fine with that so doc cant help me . I am a little better but it seems to be a slow process, but i really believe in tms as now when i push myself the pain moves so fast . I walk back hurting then move to middle back then upper thigh , then headach etc . Ive managed to find a job i can do but only just by the end of day im in a lot of pain . But at least im working now 4months ago i though i would never work again 👍👍 ps also thank Dan for your work 😀
Thanks for this!
My pleasure!
Hi Dan you are a gem. I’m so blessed to find you . I will follow you religiously 🙏
Very helpful! Thanks Dan!💞
You're so welcome!
Thank you - Thank you - Thank you!
You're very welcome!
I Really want to take on board and believe in dr Sarno and tms. My brain won’t let me though, it’s very stubborn and ingrained with beliefs of pain.
Your brain will believe it with logic, reason, repetition and decision. Watch my fast start playlist. Take notes, do the pain assessments I describe in one of the videos, keep watching. Repeat. You can do this. DansFastStart.com
I am new to this practice..Thank you
Another great video. Thank you for taking the time to help so many of us TMS inflicted individuals.
Interesting, I will get the book!

Thank you bro
Thank you. 💛
Welcome!
I really needed to hear this. Read Sarno’s book a couple years back and dealing with a nasty wave of emotional pain manifesting itself in physical issues which is creating more anxiety. This helped me slow down the “hamster wheel “ I’m on so hopefully I can get off it soon.
Keep watching. I put out videos daily on my channel: ua-cam.com/users/PainFreeYouvideos

My piriformis syndrome pain has not gone away for a year. An MRI says my muscle is normal. I am an anxious person but no one wanted talk about how my personality might be bringing on the pain. I am going to do the 12 daily reminders . Thank you so much for this video. You did great.
Thank you for the kind words. Come join us on Facebook in a private group. Lots of great discussions happening. My 2 cents - priformis pain is TMS. facebook.com/groups/PainFreeYou/

Also read the book by Dr Sarno.
I’m brand new to this as of this morning. I went on a 1.8 mile walk while reminding myself that “I am fine“. Every once in a while, I could feel my body tighten up and the pain begin to express itself, then I would roll out the “I am fine“ phrase and it would immediately go away. If that isn’t convincing I don’t know what is! I could go on about what I have been diagnosed with which is about three or four or five things, but for me, I see a way out with this TMS! I wish you the best of luck.
Awesome video, thank you for giving us such peace and a sense of going to be alright.
You are welcome.
Ty
Thank you 😊
Mission pain free

Thanks. Lot of pain in my back. I'm beginning to follow Dr Sarno's discover. I'm buying his book. I really need this. Mexico
Wonderful! This video maps out my approach to ending symptoms and pain. ua-cam.com/video/3vJgBnrhFt8/v-deo.html
Just bought the sarno book! Thanks for your help!!!
Watch the daily videos too.
Just got Dr Sarnos book, and Dr Shubner's book. This vid is saving me today. Ty Dan. Truly needed this. 12 key points are going on the fridge. ❤
Thank you so much! Just found his book and these tips are really helpful - short and to the point!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this reminder, come back to it often. Dr sarno is amazing.❤
Absolutely! For a great place to get into my content: www.PainFreeyou.com/start
Great video. I’ve been reading those reminders daily and I’ve found they help me stay focused on the psychology of TMS. I actually consulted with Dr. Sarno in NYC about 18 years ago. To make a long story short, it wasn’t until recently that I finally and completely have accepted his TMS diagnosis on me. The pain has kept me distracted all these years. But I started the recovery process again and I’ve found your videos extremely helpful. I really like how you say in one of your other videos “as long as we keep our minds focused on the pain and not on our emotional issues, the brain (syndrome) wins. It has us fooled. “ Thank you for posting your videos and helping so many people like myself. God speed.
Thanks for the kind words. I'm thrilled my videos are helping you.
Great video, and really relaxing to watch - especially with the birds in the background. Just getting refocused on trusting this diagnosis after having a flare-up again recently. So wonderful to know that even after years of pain you can fully recover and feel even better than before! Congratulations on your recovery and thank you so much for sharing these tips and giving this reminder.
Glad to be of help. Check out my channel. I post new videos daily.
Amazing video ❤ came here from your video with The Steady Coach! Love these reminders, really resonating with me! 😊 thank you
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow! I never thought that maybe I could have no pain!
It's possible. Here's the quick start:
Watch the video at: PainFreeYou.com to learn what causes most pain and why it becomes chronic.
Take the pain test to see if your pain is the type that can be eliminated: DanBuglio.com/paintest

Thanks for the video. Its a great way to remind myself of Dr Sarno. 8 years ago I accidentally came across his book on Amazon and decided to give it a try. I was suffering from back pain for 5 years before that. I had tried everything up to that point. The first Dr I saw did an MRI and found some bulging disc. He put enough fear in me that it took several reading for Dr Sarno before I could get rid of my conditioning. Today I play tennis regularly. I do get pain occasionally but need to remind myself of Sarno or reread his book. But watching your video was a quick way to remind me of the basic principles and feel better immediately. Thanks again for the video. We need folks like you spread the word of Dr Sarno. Thanks again!
Thank you very much! Very helpfull. Greetings from the Netherlands.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much from South Germany 💛💛💛💞

I've been following your work for about a month now. Read 2 Dr Sanro books, and this stuff actually works. Yes I still get pain but its dialed down a bit and I care a whole lot less about it. Thanks for your good advice.
Great to hear! Thanks Matt. You're on the right track.
SOOOOOO HELPFUL. YOURE A GREAT TEACHER AND INSPIRATION!
Thanks sharon.
I watched this several times and every time it helps a lot even if i knew all about it!
That's awesome.
