It should be fine now. As if every problem can, or should be solved with the flip of a switch. Like life is a series of tasks on a todo list that are to be checked off one by one. I do think that in some ways we place more importance on the arbitrary scorecards as opposed to what work was...

None at all. I think you’re going about this the correct way to overcome your old way of thinking. Keep at it!

Stretching is really important for the body. By stretching you’re not reinforcing the idea that it is something physical. It is a (typically) daily maintenance habit similar to brushing your teeth. You can stretch daily without reinforcing any ideas, similarly to the fact that you can brush...

Hi Elbouque, I noticed it is almost your anniversary of deciding to conquer your pain... June 12. I’m not sure if you still come on here (if you’re lucky perhaps you are so healed now that you have moved on completely from the site), but I am in a very similar situation and I think your post may...

Hi. I’m very sorry if I upset you. This was not my intention. I was trying to help, but I can agree that I do not always convey my message in the most compassionate way. I would hope you can forgive me for the tone I took . I did not mean any harm but there is definitely some truth in it if you...

You said you made it 1/2 way through Sarno's book. Are you currently reading it - did you stop? I think you have to fully commit to the course. I would recommend you take a moment to read the entire book from front to back. If it's been awhile since you stopped, then begin at the start again. If...

The one currently listed in Charlotte NC is no longer active according to this thread... https://www.tmswiki.org/forum/threads/frustrated-with-a-new-tms-episode-looking-for-reinforcement.14668/ (Frustrated with a new TMS episode looking for reinforcement)

I’m experiencing chronic pain across my entire body. Mostly in my neck/jaw/shoulders, but it emanates all over the body. My neck is constantly stiff and tight, and in pain, if I move it I hear cracks and feel discomfort. My shoulders are tight and sore. My jaw is tight a lot and I grind my...

Okay fair point. No I don’t have Unlearn Your Pain. All I know is I have read The Mindbody Prescription and The Divided Mind since getting these symptoms and they did not help like my prior TMS was helped. I thought maybe this book has a way of explaining it that would sink into me better. I...

Well I’ve had and successfully cured my TMS in my wrist years ago by reading The Mindbody Prescription and later The Divided Mind. And I went years without pain or discomfort that I attribute to TMS. Then since November last year, I have been having problems all over my body I believe is...

Does anybody have a copy they would loan me and I’ll pay for shipping? I ordered it on amazon and it is saying it won’t arrive until April 21st due to virus delays (and not prime eligible). I’m in immense pain and I figured this was worth a shot.

Asthma is regarded as potential TMS by Sarmo. i had asthma since I was young. However, I have not had an "asthma attack" for at least 15 years. I have an inhaler hanging around but I never use it. I guess I would use it if I ever had trouble breathing. But there's not been a use for it. I almost...
