You can resolve pain in a completely natural way and without medication. No surgery, no medication, and no gimmicks.
Yes, it is effective. Even with chronic pain. And with severe pain, as in childbirth.
It is a technique used throughout the world and over time. That’s because it works. In fact, it works too well.
I’m serious. Unless you have a mission as a medic, I would think twice about using it. Doctors use pain to help diagnose illness. Getting rid of it could divert them from finding the answer.
And something like a headache can be due to back strain, dehydration, lack of sleep, or too much screen time. Erasing the signal without addressing the cause does you no favors.
Therefore, turn to self-hypnosis only when it is safe to resolve your pain.
Because what is pain really?
Some people see it as the body’s response to damage. Your tissues register something bad, your nerves generate a signal, and your brain receives it.
Now, there is truth in that. No one would deny it.
But that is not pain.
If that were all, it wouldn’t explain why it sometimes persists despite medication. After all, drugs alter the signal … but they don’t always reduce the sensation.
There are also those who have an injury, make a full recovery, and then still experience discomfort.
You can also resist pain when you have a reason to. People jumped through fire or were shot and didn’t even notice it until they were safe again.
Pain is a signal from the body. It is also your mind’s way of getting your attention.
If your foot is injured, then your mind wants you not to walk on it. This is important information and should get your attention in some way.
Too many people make the mistake of ignoring these feelings. If your mind wants you to notice something but you ignore it, it will scream louder. And stronger. And it will continue to do so until you hear the message.
If you ignore the sensation, it accumulates.
If you get angry or frustrated with the feeling, it increases.
But if you pay attention to it and listen benevolently to what your body says, then it decreases.
Maybe you can do something different, like flatter one side or spend time lounging.
On the other hand, maybe you can’t.
Either way, the message is important. So listen to it without judgment.
Of course, that is easy to say. When you live with feelings like this, it is difficult to see them in a neutral or positive way.
That’s where self-hypnosis helps. In a trance, you can put aside your interpretations of the experience and really hear the message. Many people find that, through the calm of the trance state, the sensation begins to unravel on its own.
You may be one of these lucky people. Or it may take time to really get the message. Either way, regular hypnotic experiences will ease your sensations sooner or later.
