Let's just start with a title, Outsmarting Pain. What do you mean by that?

Thanks for asking that in a way like you could say like we don't really want to outsmart the pain but what we want to do is we want to see how our mind influences the way that we experience pain and so the book is focused on chronic physical pain but I mean pretty much everything in the book is also about emotional pain right because it's like how the mind tries to make sense of what is happening in our experience and how we relate to that and how we can reduce the suffering.

The book is called Outsmart Your Pain and I've resources on my website and also classes where I teach about pain and a lot of guided meditations and retreats that I'm teaching.
