Brain pain - how Psychogenic Pain Develops from Unfelt Emotions- and how to treat it

Anxiety is a common problem for athletes:00:00 Intro and how I got into somatic trauma work03:40 Chronic anxiety is a natural response to past experience stored in your body in a feedback loop with your limbic brain06:50 The body cannot lie - it will reveal the truth of your unmet emotional needs from childhood as symptoms09:20 Symptom suppression vs. root causes. Athletes can get symptoms of auto-immune, delayed healing, chronic pain, etc if underlying high achieving drivers become unbalanced. Ian's story.15:03 Autonomic nervous system controls the body and is regulated by emotions. Autonomic safety (calm connection or neuroception) is necessary for healing and neurological co-regulation.19:27 Trauma events can be one-off or more commonly complex PTSD from attachment wounding. Much more common with highly sensitive people (HSPs).24:00 Symptom labels are limited being descriptive only. An example from an athlete we have both worked with:1/ Betrayal of trust distorts your mindbody perception of self. Hyper-responsibility plays out as the child within unconsciously as feelings of shame transformed to worthiness.34:50 High sensitivity (sensory processing sensitivity) correspond to 20% of population. Present in the womb, is a trait you are born with. Their needs are greater in childhood. Porous boundaries create overwhelm.39:30 Adult reactions driven by past experience - coaches, trainers take the place of family but can be abusive relationships which retrigger past traumas.44:00 What's changed in our environment that anxiety is so huge - social media onslaught, schooling system based on competition, achievement. Inter-generational trauma has built up. See The Myth of Normal by Gabor Mate. Much more pressure, less support leads to being bathed in cortisol which destroys us.48:00 Competition vs. community. How the mind punishes the body if trained by trauma. Replacing despair with hope, love & gratitude is profoundly healing. Is a resonant system so emotions matter physiologically to restoring energy.54:00 Heart mind resonance. Heart is not just a physiological pump but a resonance electromagnetic organ to connect with other living beings and our environment via its sensory system. Allowing your vulnerability and reaching out for help. Heart connection in practice.59:00 How to connect with me.

By special request - more info from the book The Invisible Rainbow by Arthur Firstenberg on the importance of the myelin sheath in transmission of energy throughout the body - and what can go wrong with Electromagnetic pollution.00:00 Intro to the book02:00 The importance of electrical energy in healing damaged tissue - porphyrins as transmitters of energy within cells - haemoglobin in red blood cells05:16 Electrical polarity of the brain can be reversed to cause anaesthesia, pain reduction and healing08:00 Porphyrins are energy transmitters in the mitochondria (as cytochrome c in the electron transport chain) but also those in the myelin sheath complexed with zinc, (chlorophyll uses magnesium, haem uses Iron). 11:00 With a porphyrin manufacture problem excess precursors builds up in tissue along with excess zinc causing hyper excitability of the neurons - predisposes to electro-sensitivity and chronic fatigue syndrome?13:06 Robert Becker's investigation in bioelectric healing in bone and nerves - electro-chemical transmission allows much of our activity16:25 'Currents of injury' - point to another information system that allows regeneration and healing18:17 Myelin sheaths/Schwann/glial cells are intimately involved in signal transmission and energy production in the brain and nervous system19:45 Electro-chemical sensitivity may interact with high zinc in brain and nerves, and other parts of body. EDTA (a chelators) complexes Zn and will take it out the body and can reverse cognitive decline22:00 90% of oxygen consumption occurs in brain from glial cells - myelin may be the major energy powerhouse completely independent of mitochondria24:02 Excess zinc is everywhere in the environment, car tyres a major factor along with denture cream, water supply, etc. 25:40 Are highly sensitive people (HSP's) the canaries in the coalmine with problems in the porphyrin pathways?

Here I review the understanding put forward in the book The Divided Mind by Dr John Sarno as long ago as 2006. Doctor Sarno was one of the first medical doctors to embrace the idea of psychosomatic medicine which he dubbed mind body disorder to avoid the negative connotation that psychosomatic was all in your head.We now find many common conditions relate to what he referred to as TMS or Tension myoneural syndrome commonly expressed as chronic fatigue syndrome or Fibromyalgia but embracing many medically unexplained symptoms00:00 Sarno's revolutionary ideas of psycho-somatic (mindbody) medicine02:45 The divided mind - pain and emotional centres in the brain are closely linked04:20 Unconscious emotions from early childhood repressed by personality traits of goodism, perfectionism as unacceptable06:52 My story of unconscious repression of rage/ anger or rebellion plus guilt, fear or grief09:25 The need for control - narcissism and the dismay when illness, divorce, etc strikes12:16 past  & present experience accumulate to speak for you - the symptom imperative14:42 Biomedical medicine treats the body symptoms only15:11 Other recommended books - including mine The Scar that won't Heal, The Hidden Psychology of Pain16:29 Mainstream medicine slowly taking on this view.
