In my daily living i often experience pain.Just at this moment when iam writing this topic, i experience a light headache in the back of my skull.,but its normal for me in this situation.I dont care, its over after writing this letter when i left the computor.Its due to the exitement(feelings/increased tension))in writing this topic, and the static working posture.When i was running earlier this evening i felt a aching pain in my left ankel for 15 minutes,but i dident care ,i kept on running and it dissapeared.Pain isent aproblem as long as you have nowledge about it.I have controll over the pain.The body tells me that it hasent a good time but i now it will dissaper(positiv thinking) a self-fulfillig propheticies.
My belife system is (mostly)possitive,and in this way im sending my nervous system information about possibilities not limitations.Feelings are tension(Thomas Hanna/Feldenkrais)
This is some of the thoughts i am (cognitiv therapy)shareing with my patients,when educating them in"the art of living".
What about your pain?how do you and your patients interpretate it?

Rolf, I would be interested if you have ever experienced severe pain and how you managed it.
