This episode includes a 6 minute technique you can do to deactivate your triggers. My coach who studies hypnotherapy taught me this somatic hack to decrease the intense feelings of a trigger. It is not to ignore the trigger or brush it under a rug, but to make it more emotionally manageable so it can be processed and let go. Think of something that triggers you, and try the process along with me in this episode. Best if you can sit or lay down with your eyes closed.

In this episode, I interview Tai Kuncio.

She is a fellow moderator in the "Tell Me About Your Pain" Facebook Group. (https://www.facebook.com/groups/695823314550483)

Tai had various pains starting in childhood, which they attributed to being athletic. But she struggled the most with chronic knee pain.

At one point after knee surgery, she was doing physical therapy 4 to 5 hours per day and still not getting better.

It wasn’t her weakness or muscle dysfunction, but her fear that was driving her pain.

Finally when she moved across the world to Africa and gave up the intensity with what she was trying to heal, she embraced the mind-body approach.

She no longer struggles with chronic daily pain, and when symptoms come up she knows how to handle them so they don’t stick around long.

Listen for her inspirational story and what she learned about letting go of the intensity to heal.
