Please enjoy this conversation with Ashley Labore of Clarity Wellness Therapies on how to best handle a pain flare up. In this discussion we cover:
- the difference between acute and chronic pain
- why stress can trigger physical pain
- how understanding pain neuroscience can reduce fear of pain
- how to best respond to pain in order to shorten flare-ups and get back on track
- why it is important to stay active and social despite pain
- 4-7-8 breathing
- a mindfulness exercise called “noting” or “labeling”
