This book was released on 2018-02-26 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for those who are ready and motivated to overcome chronic pain on a physical, emotional, and spiritual level. After spending almost 30 years in daily debilitating chronic pain, Qat Wanders was finally able to heal using a specific process that she developed over the course of a decade. The sad thing is, this is a familiar story for many people. For those of us who suffer from an "invisible illness," we spend all of our time trying to function normally in society. We read all of these books out there that claim that we can heal ourselves, but no matter how hard we try, we are still in pain. It doesn't seem like anything is working for us individually, and we can't figure out why. Maybe you have read other books-especially in the health and wellness industry-that make you feel like you're doing everything wrong. You know how this goes: You haven't been on a gluten-free diet like you know you should be, or you're getting too much heavy metal poisoning because you're using the wrong cookware, or maybe you're not spending enough money on the right type of water! We already know that there are a lot of toxins out there, bombarding us all the time, and that can be really discouraging and overwhelming. Maybe we feel guilty, inadequate, or useless because we are in pain. We feel weak and hopeless if we have to take painkillers for it. We feel like a burden on our friends and family. And what's worse-sometimes they look at us as a burden on them as well. All because we are dealing with pain in our lives that we don't feel like anyone else understands. All we can think about when the pain is there is just how much pain we're in, and if it's EVER going to stop. The goal of this book is not to make you feel guilty, or inadequate, or like you're doing something wrong. The goal is to give you hope, support, and OPTIONS for things that will actually help you get BETTER! Our bodies really can heal. You CAN get past this! The processes that Qat shares in this book actually work, because they are tailored to fit your individual needs. All it takes is motivation to make the necessary changes which are unique to you and your body. This book isn't just about doing Yoga postures to make your backache go away. This book will help you reassess your life and your body, as well as your mental and spiritual state; to help you truly overcome chronic pain once and for all! If we really want to get better, we have to heal from the inside out. Many of these natural healing methods that we read about haven't worked for us yet because our bodies are too toxic to handle them. Anyone suffering from chronic pain has a lot going on internally that needs to be addressed before healing can take place. The contents of this book will show you how to shift your mental state to allow yourself to heal. Then it goes into the internal cleansing process which is absolutely crucial to train the body to accept natural healing methods. From there, you will learn to maintain this state of balance and internal homeostasis to overcome chronic pain on all levels. You will learn the reconditioning techniques that reprogram the body, mind, and Spirit by giving you the tools you need to: Practice the Mindful Movement Techniques(TM) which trigger the body's pain responses in a way that can help overcome chronic pain quickly and effectively. Learn the key lifestyle adjustments you have likely not even thought of, that have proven effective for literally everyone who tried them. See immediate results in how you begin to look at your situation and your ability to handle pain with an even mind. Level up from the physical aspects of chronic pain and stop allowing it to affect your everyday life negatively. So if you are sick and tired of being sick and tired, and you are ready to take the next BIG STEP to take back control of your life and reclaim your health... this book is for YOU!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book takes an integrated approach to pain rehabilitation and combines pain science, rehabilitation and yoga with evidence-based approaches from respected contributors. They demonstrate how to integrate the concepts, philosophies and practices of yoga and pain science in working with people in pain. An essential and often overlooked part of pain rehabilitation is listening to, working with, learning from, and validating the person in pain's lived experience. The book expounds on the movement to a more patient-valued, partnership-based biopsychosocial-spiritual model of healthcare where the patient is an active and empowered participant, as opposed to a model where the healthcare provider is 'fixing' the passive patient. It also explains how practitioners can address the entire human being in pain, and how to include the person as an expert for more effective and self-empowered care.

Book excerpt: For decades, scientists and doctors thought that pain could be caused only by damage to the structure of the body. They looked for the source of chronic pain in bulging spinal discs, muscle injuries, and infections. More recent research, however, points to a second source of chronic pain: the very real biology of your thoughts, emotions, expectations, and memories. Most chronic pain has its roots in a physical injury or illness, but it is sustained by how that initial trauma changes not just the body but also the mind-body relationship. This book will help you shift your mental state to allow yourself to heal and truly overcome chronic pain once and for all. You can also reassess your life and your body, mental and spiritual state. You will learn in this book: Practice the Mindful Movement Techniques(TM) which trigger the body's pain responses in a way that can help overcome chronic pain quickly and effectively.

Download or read book Yoga for Chronic Pain written by Tracy Tailor and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-23 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to know how to recognize chronic pain and how to efficiently eliminate it without spending a fortune? According to a survey more than 110 million of people living in America, are suffering the same condition of this severe chronic pain. It could be any type of pain like headache, postsurgical pain, post-trauma pain, lower back pain, cancer pain, arthritis pain, neurogenic pain or psychogenic pain. Medical schools don't teach how to alleviate this type of pain and that is a very scary fact since doctors are not properly taught how to handle this condition. When chronic pain is not identified by medical instruments or by doctors, the best scenario you can get is shoulder shrugs by the experts, or in the worst case you can get prescribed ineffective and potentially addictive painkillers like opioids. If that's not enough we must add all the stress our body and mind receive on a daily basis, after all, we live in the age of stress (many studies show that the modern human is more stressed than his ancestor, in spite of better living conditions). This practical no gibberish book teaches you how to safely practice restorative and gentle yoga poses at home in order to relieve stress and chronic pain. Here are some of the topics discussed in this amazing book: ● Brief history of yoga, useful to comprehend what you are doing. ● What pain is defined as chronic pain, yoga is not the answer for everything, some types of pain need medical assistance, so you must know how to distinguish between them. ● How to detect the most common types of chronic pain, how to prevent them and how to cure them with specific yoga exercises.

Download or read book Overcoming Trauma through Yoga written by David Emerson and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2012-01-10 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Survivors of trauma—whether abuse, accidents, or war—can end up profoundly wounded, betrayed by their bodies that failed to get them to safety and that are a source of pain. In order to fully heal from trauma, a connection must be made with oneself, including one’s body. The trauma-sensitive yoga described in this book moves beyond traditional talk therapies that focus on the mind, by bringing the body actively into the healing process. This allows trauma survivors to cultivate a more positive relationship to their body through gentle breath, mindfulness, and movement practices. Overcoming Trauma through Yoga is a book for survivors, clinicians, and yoga instructors who are interested in mind/body healing. It introduces trauma-sensitive yoga, a modified approach to yoga developed in collaboration between yoga teachers and clinicians at the Trauma Center at Justice Resource Institute, led by yoga teacher David Emerson, along with medical doctor Bessel van der Kolk. The book begins with an in-depth description of trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), including a description of how trauma is held in the body and the need for body-based treatment. It offers a brief history of yoga, describes various styles of yoga commonly found in Western practice, and identifies four key themes of trauma-sensitive yoga. Chair-based exercises are described that can be incorporated into individual or group therapy, targeting specific treatment goals, and modifications are offered for mat-based yoga classes. Each exercise includes trauma-sensitive language to introduce the practice, as well as photographs to illustrate the poses. The practices have been offered to a wide range of individuals and groups, including men and women, teens, returning veterans, and others. Rounded out by valuable quotes and case stories, the book presents mindfulness, breathing, and yoga exercises that can be used by home practitioners, yoga teachers, and therapists as a way to cultivate awareness, tolerance, and an increased acceptance of the self.

Part Two delves into key dimensions of pain and its care, such as perception, emotions, physical contributions, exercise and sleep. Each chapter has three sections: Headspace: presents a review of pain neuroscience and yoga research related to each dimension. Out of the Head and onto the Mat: translates information from 'Headspace' into an experiential practice on the yoga mat. Off the Mat and into Life: demonstrates how to extend knowledge and practice into daily living. Pain Science Yoga Life is a valuable resource for healthcare and yoga professionals, and is designed to deepen pain science knowledge and skills in the use of yoga for pain care.
