This workshop is designed to give you a new way of understanding pain—one rooted in the most up-to-date neuroscience and delivered in a compassionate, supportive environment. Over the course of 8 weeks, we’ll explore powerful mind-body tools that can help you reduce or even eliminate chronic pain.

Here’s a glimpse of what we’ll cover:

 🌱 Understanding the Science of Chronic Pain

You’ll learn how and why chronic pain can persist—even when there’s no longer tissue damage—and how the brain can “unlearn” pain. This foundational knowledge helps shift your relationship to pain from fear to curiosity and possibility.

🧠 The Brain-Pain Connection

We’ll explore how the nervous system can get stuck in a pain-fear cycle, and how to begin gently interrupting it. You’ll start learning how to spot patterns that may be keeping pain active.

💬 Noticing and Reframing Pain Messages

You’ll practice techniques to change the way you respond to pain when it shows up—learning to send new, safer messages to the brain. We’ll work with language, thought patterns, and body awareness.

🌊 Reconnecting with Safety in the Body

Chronic pain often makes the body feel unsafe. We’ll work with somatic (body-based) practices that help you reconnect to your body in ways that feel calming, empowering, and supportive.

💛 Working with Emotions That May Be Tied to Pain

Unprocessed emotions like fear, grief, or anger can sometimes get “stuck” in the nervous system. We’ll gently explore emotional awareness and expression, at a pace that feels right for you.

🌿 Calming the Nervous System

You’ll learn simple, effective tools to regulate your nervous system and shift from “fight or flight” into a state where healing can happen. Think grounding practices, breathwork, and body-based techniques.

🔁 Reclaiming Joy, Movement, and Trust

As your nervous system begins to feel safer, we’ll talk about reintroducing the activities and parts of life pain may have taken away. You’ll learn how to re-engage with your world from a place of confidence and care.
