GM to all and big hugs to you all. If you feel good , no pain or hardly...at least for a minute or the whole day by watching Dan's videos... then you know it's all TMS the mind!! How can feeling good or laughing make my pain less. ?? Has to be the mind. Dan u the man!
Thank you so much. Today's talk is so wonderful. It says it all! "The body is a miracle healer. It knows how to return to balance...just get out of fueling the mis-information...you don't have to rewire the brain. You don't have to 'fix' the nervous system." I will listen to this one again and again. Cuts out the junk and gets to the point! Yeah! It's working!🙏🙏🙏🌟Bless everyone
Needed this today!!! I have no fear of my symptoms anymore and wow have they really been horrendous the past two days. I’m not buying it. I will and I can get better!
😊 thank you dan well said and reassuring I was in a state of survival since childhood until adulthood because of threats and my nervous system got used to me being on high alert and always struggling with health challenges because of it. Im tired of fixing myself it's exhausting.
Everyone a beautiful Sunday ❤ Sorry Lily , my answers to you keep being deleted! Thanks for your beautiful message! Hope you’re doing well? Stay blessed ❤
This is the problem im fighting I feel damaged unwell all because 24/7 neck pain. ive had neck pain ha;f my life but constant for a year. I did test 33 so I want believe I have tms. Its hard retraining a brain thats always been on highallert my 63 years. I want badly to feel normal. I always go back to your videos as reassurance.
I did the tests and it looked like most of my condition is probably TMS (crippling post covid fatigue, depression, etc) but then I got AFib which I have NEVER had before and I'm only 28 and was considered healthy before covid! (They still say I appear mostly healthy in the tests etc.) Also the AFib episode happened on a day when I was actually easing into a more positive and hopeful mindset. Now the fear that was already so intense, has amped up even more... I live in terror every day and I know it's probably hurting my health but I can't seem to stop fearing and expecting something terrible to strike whenever, and I'm afraid of thinking positively/optimistically because then I may be struck down out of nowhere... I don't know what to do with myself?
TMS / Perceived danger symptoms are not harmful. Living in fear is not hurting your health, but it is creating false alarm symptoms. Obviously, if it was true AFib, then you should work with a cardiologist. But heart palpitations are a common anxiety/fear response. What did your doctor tell you? Diagnosed with AFib? I will tell you that "long covid" is TMS / Perceived danger symptoms. I have several success stories for long covid. PainFreeYouSuccess.com - scroll through to find the long covid ones. There is NO downside to TEACHING your brain you will be okay. Symptoms are not proof of illness. Symptoms are proof your brain is terrified. There is NO downside to TEACHING your brain you are and will be okay. Watch my fast start playlist videos. They will help you understand what is going on and what to do. DansFastStart.com
@@PainFreeYou Except Dan, if you haven't been one of those for whom covid has affected the heart, it's very easy to talk about post-covid issues being mindbody. For some people I'm sure their problems may well be. But the reality is that for thousands of people across the globe, heart issues post-covid are a 'real' thing. They are not TMS. I want to reassure instant_mint that the problem will resolve with time, and that if their physician considers betablockers helpful, then take them. I had problems in 2020 after contracting covid, and there was a lot of early research on the problem. Insisting that it's mindbody isn't necessarily helpful, because it makes the person with the problem feel helpless if they can't resolve it. There is no downside to believing we're safe, and you talk about facts. Well Im offering instant_mint the facts on post-covid cardiac issues. It will settle. If you need some meds, take them. Feeling safe sometimes means taking them.
My misinformation is that certain movements can cause pain and that walking, standing on concrete for my job is causing foot pain, but just in one foot. Go figure! A few other symptoms only occur on the left side of my body. Interesting. Thanks for the video.
Interesting. I think I’ve found myself trapped in thinking my nervous system needs to be regulated or that I have deep repressed emotions that need to be extracted and felt. Yet the burden of having to do those things is giving me stress. Time to let it go again.
Yes, the times on the web are EST and correct. We have many members from the UK and other parts of Europe. Details here: PainFreeYouGroup.com - hope to see you there.
Hi Dan! Thank you for this video! I have an irregular questions: If someone drinking alcohol every day, then can alcohol be a perceived danger for the brain, if the intension behind this is all is that to feel himself better and more relaxed; and not that to get out from the perception of the symptoms or try to block the emotions in the subconcious brain, or try to forget something because of the fear?
Sure - the degree of fear will determine how fast or slow you should go. This can allow you to ease into it: ua-cam.com/video/mRowJmW4uk0/v-deo.html And if symptoms flare the day or two after, this video explains. ua-cam.com/video/sHvM_PNfvto/v-deo.html Lastly, this is the overall strategy. ua-cam.com/video/N39R-imCQoo/v-deo.html
I have anxiety , physical symptoms but when it calms down what happens is I start the back and leg pain. In other words it’s either one or the other. Does this sound familiar with any of you ???
Fear and the brains perception of danger will massively influence how significant the symptoms are. Being terrified does not help. Stay away from the withdrawal "support groups" as they only perpetuate the fear cycle.
I am on a journey of healing from psych meds withdrawal. I was in one of those so called support groups for withdrawal before I found out about this work. It was a nightmare and Dan is spot on stay away from them. All you hear is symptom after symptom and no hope for some to ever feel good again, permanent damage. If I knew then what I know now I would never ever have joined. I’m recovering from that too. I am so grateful for Dan’s work. It has helped me immensely ❤
@@PainFreeYouabsolutely! I fell into that trap before I knew anything about the brains perception of danger. All that group did was fuel an already lit fire of fear over what could happen as you withdraw and yes the brain really amped up the symptoms. I am making progress thanks to your approach Dan. I watch your videos everyday and want to join the in person online group soon. Thank you for your dedication and help for all of us. It has been a life changer for me.
Dan, the problem with all of this is that people can have the behavioural and psychological features that might--hypothetically--maintain or worsen something like a central sensitisation disorder AND at the same time, have an organic disease process or damage from an earlier injury. A person with ME/CFS can still get cancer (in fact they'rem ore likely to). As a person with chronic pain can still get MS, diabetes etc. You're promoting a false dichoatomy that isn't backed up by robust studies. There are so many conditions where late diagnosis can result in permanent damage or worse outcomes. Do you really want something like someone dying from late diagnosis cancer because of listening to your channel? Why not promote a nuanced picture of chronic pain? One that is actually backed by evidence? It doesn't negate that some of the techniques and psychological approaches you teach might be very helpful for some people
The rule of thumb I suggest is to rule out anything serious with your doctor, and then rule in the mindbody condition through the mindbody assessments. The challenge in obtaining "robust studies" is that there is no financial interest to fund those studies. Most studies are funded by big medicine and big pharma. Mindbody approaches often bypass medical treatments because they don't work for conditions created by a brain perceiving danger. Who would fund a study that has no financial benefit in proving a mindbody cause and solution to many illnesses and pains? If you have suggestions on how to get the funding, please let me know. Until then, the evidence I have available are tens of thousands of comments over the past nearly 6 years of videos and the 96 success stories published with people getting well. The vast majority of comments on my channel are positive and sharing improvement or even complete elimination of symptoms. Again, I'm open to suggestions on how to get some robust studies funded and conducted. Until then, I'm doing my part in helping as many as possible. Thank you for sharing your perspective. There is a study that was done: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34586357/
@PainFreeYou Thanks for replying, Dan. I don’t doubt that you've witnessed some miraculous recoveries in correlation with the interventions you promote. That’s clear from your channel. For what it's worth, I think your techniques for reducing the stress around unpleasant chronic symptoms are great. That’s why I’m listening (and trying them myself). My point is that you can have both psychological and biological drivers of pain and chronic symptoms like fatigue. And that seems to be the current consensus in pain medicine. Just because you have the positive symptoms that would lead Sarno to say you have TMS, it doesn’t mean you don’t have other things going on. I’m not promoting serial invasive surgeries and taking a hundred supplements a day, but I do support doing due dilligence for investigating symptoms, including if they change or worsen. E.g. just because you have TMS, it doesn’t mean your new pelvic pain isn’t bowel cancer. And I think many of us have experienced doctors not investigating causes of pain properly before they've jump to a psychogenic cause hypothesis.
It’s also worth keeping in mind that people have died with conditions labelled as M.E., as people have ended up permanently seriously disabled from doing things like graded exercise therapy. Could that all be emotionally driven? Possible but seems unlikely and we don’t have the evidence at this point to say it is. This is a great talk about how few biomedical hypotheses turn out to be correct once the studies are done. It’s worth keeping in mind. None of us are immune to cognitive biases and Sarno does have some grandiose guru vibes about him, which raise red flags for me, even if he did contribute important ideas to this area ua-cam.com/video/MO30X0YlZU0/v-deo.html
@@katzinspace My concern is that an online questionnaire is not an indicator of either a physical or an emotionally driven condition. The answers could actually be interpreted as anything. i'm reluctant to be too specific as, as I've said before, I recognise that this is Dan's site, it's his programme, and clearly for some people, with emotionally/psychologically driven conditions, there is a satisfactory resolution. But the hypothesis that the brain receiving bad data or the brain perceiving danger is what causes all the problems, the sweeping statement that the sequelae from covid, for instance, are 'all mindbody' I think are just outright dangerous. Like you I don't advocate unnecessary surgeries and crazy supplements. But i'm not in the US, there's no financial incentive in Britain for doctors to prolong treatments, and I'm not used to a culture that dismisses medical interventions. I understandabout anxiety and what stress and distress can do to the immune system - I've been there! I don't doubt that Dan's methods do work for some people some of the time. But that doesn't mean that all those with long-term destructive symptoms have the because of bad brain data.
