There are a lot of great questions here. First off, I suggest that every go to the bottom of the comments section on page 1, and read Christie's response. It's a very important piece of the puzzle.
Yes! If you have the time, that's a great idea. If it ever gets to a point where you're feeling like it's a chore or you're feeling pressure, just scale it back. It isn't always the amount of time that we practice, but the way we feel about practicing.
This is a big part of overcoming pain, yes. I'll be covering other components of recovery in the coming days.
Oh my god, I think I confused Nathaniel Branden for David Burns! Thank you for pointing this out...I may have to change that in the post. And thank you for the rest of your post, I'm a big fan of Peter Levine's work.
Very insightful question! Outcome independence doesn't involve ignoring the pain either, simply not letting it determine your outlook. In fact, practicing somatic tracking is a way of practicing of outcome independence: feeling what you feel, not from a place of fear or despair, but assessing it objectively.
