Can We Control Pain With Our Minds?

Can Hypnosis Help Pain?As a professional hypnotist, I’ve seen first hand how the mind influences our bodies. I was able to help people who had long termĀ  “chronic” pain feel better in moments. These same people had spent years in doctors offices and therapy.

Now, I’m not saying that there aren’t genuine physical causes of pain, I’m saying that pain is a process that we experience both physically and psychologically. And, when you understand how your mind works, you can a) avoid unintentionally maximizing the pain. b) intentionally minimize it and make yourself more comfortable. If you’d like to read about some new research that shows why some people are better at handling pain than others, click here.

  1. As a PARR nurse I was in a unique position to observe pain. There is definitely a huge cognitive component. Thanks for a great read. I’ll definitely be back for more!

    Many Blessings,
