Living Skillfully: Your Mind and Health

My new Pain Management CD is now in the online shop – only $10 NZD. Isn’t it pretty? Kudos goes to Mrinkk for the photo.

On the audio CD are 10 tracks:

• Pain Series Introduction: Introduces the rest of the tracks in the series.
• Therapeutic Relaxation: Enjoy refreshing deep relaxation which de-stresses your mind and body – good for you in any number of ways. (Free sample track.)
• Dissociation: Master mild pain by removing your focus from it to something else.
• Association: Master more severe pain by detaching from the experience.
• Imagery: Control your pain with mental imagery.
• Control Panel: Control your pain with an imaginary control panel.
• Glove Anaesthesia: Numb parts of your body, in preparation for dental work or surgery, for example.
• Displacement of Pain: Change long-term pain into something more bearable.
• Displacement of Self: Go to your happy place.
• Healing with Imagery: Use mental imagery to advance your body’s healing.

These are mostly short tracks, and I imagine that people will play them on repeat. You can read more about the background to these techniques in my posts Pain management part 1: Attention techniques and Pain management part 2: Imagination techniques.
