Thank you so much for your content! I have cured my body of what the doctor is called an incurable disease… Autoimmune disease. Through my worst times, you were there to give me such brilliant advice. Thank you!❤

[@SunnyCarnivore]

That's incredible; congratulations!

[@PainFreeYou]

That is wonderful. If you would ever want to share your story in a success story interview, I would love to have you on my channel. Get on my calendar here: TalkWithDan.com

[@tominnc315]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing that

[@adrianabearzi2006]

Wow 🤩!!! Congratulations ❤

@@adrianabearzi2006 love! Yes it was quite a ride but blood tests don’t lie lol

Great tool, Dan! Nerd that I am, I picture Spock, raising one eyebrow, and calmly saying “Fascinating” without any emotion, just legitimate fascination. (Of course, he then needs to get on with saving the galaxy so he doesn’t overly-dwell on it.)

[@ajyvr305]

I love this! Going to add it into my brain 💕☺

[@PainFreeYou]

haha - Spock was cool.

[@lawrencemoore]

Your timing couldn't have been better, Dan. This morning as I went on my morning walk, my brain made a tactical maneuver, shifting my symptoms away from the usual places to an area they had never been before. Instead of freaking out, I thought of two things: 1. This was yet more proof of TMS/PDP. 2. My relatively calm mindset was having an effect. Maybe I wasn't exactly fascinated, but I found it very interesting. And encouraging.

[@PainFreeYou]

Yes, it is very interesting indeed.

[@oriana79]

Thanks a lot, Dan, for putting all this out there with such relaxed, encouraging and good-willed attitude. It's really helping me and a lot of other people! 🌱

[@PainFreeYou]

Thank you.

[@massagepublications]

Great topic Dan. I actually tried this last night - felt like I had a high fever (didn’t!) and stepped into observer role and thought “isn’t it amazing what the brain can do!” Better than fear and despair. Put me into a calmer state of mind which is my biggest challenge. ❤❤

[@PainFreeYou]

Good stuff.

[@denniseichert2323]

Good evening Dan, I wonder if, digging a little deeper, we find that the term 'Fascination' to be some type of subconscious declarative the brain does not recognise (either subconscious or conscious - in that subconscious to us with chronic pain is still a known palliative and engaging mechanism - versus the 'subconscious' we interpret as omniscient - or from some exterior location unknown to our Brain (perhaps slipping through our brains as a memory coping device) opposed to 'Fear" which encapsulates an emotion experience of chemical reaction to stimuli from within the brain - a 'known' commodity to the brain, therefore a 'trigger' point, in the same way as the muscular system in the human body reacts to overstimulation or discomfort through negative previous use causes 'trigger' points. Does the brain have it within itself to initiate 'trigger' points that are in turn interpreted as injury (coming as they would through unpleasant past reactions) and re-interpreted by the nervous system? I hope at least some of this makes any sense. I am a 55 year old male living in New Zealand with my Wife and our pets, and for the past two and a half years I have lived in the most unbearable agony right throughout my body, especially throughout the groin, hips and legs. I suffer from chronic Celiac Disease, small vessel vascular disease in my Brain, and this condition which to date no medical Doctor can find a medically based diagnosis for. Instead I have been given drugs that DO NOT WORK, and that I have had to ween myself from (including Gabapentin, which I recommend TO NO ONE SUFFERING FROM THE PAIN WE HAVE TO ENDURE). The pain is such I am now feeling mentally challenged by my condition/s, and every day I am terrified of going to bed knowing what is coming in the morning when I go to move. I have been shuffled from Doctor to Doctor, and last week to a Pain Clinic, where I think the Specialist there is onto something - then I saw your web page. Sometimes the pain is so bad my Wife has to move my legs for me as the agony is simply crushing. I have suffered some terrible injuries across the years of my life, but nothing like this. AND I FEEL AFRAID (AND I DO NOT want to write this no doubt because my Brain had such a hold over my life in a negative, paralysing manner). My Wife wants me to see another Specialist next week - And I can feel my brain already reacting to this by tearing through my legs with a broken bottle (as per usual). I took your test Dan which confirmed for me I can rid myself of this (well, a good deal of it anyway, enough to live without both the impact (unemployment, financial hardship, and the toll this is taking on my Wife), yet even though I know you are are the right Individual with the right concepts to help, this damned agony continues to make life, and the decision to come to you for help, one of continued emotional 'discussion' with myself. I think slowly I can get my Brain to circumvent whatever psychological trigger points I have (and having been an active service Soldier, coming from an abusive childhood where I was NEVER good enough, or just taking the beating anyway, and going through all of this now) and get myself to the point where I can reach out... I intend to Subscribe to your Channel as well Dan once I can get the courage up to do so... Thankyou Sir very much for allowing me to rant on like this. I really just want to delete this lot and go to bed, but I know if I do nothing will change and I will end up on the bottle or worse.

The brain has the ability to create any pain or symptom we experience. And, in my opinion, I believe it is all based on a brain perceiving danger. The brain is working perfectly, it's just working on misinformation and fear. To learn more, check out my fast start playlist. kzbin.info/aero/PLRJmnkn2kTTIl4frNvmpenr49xcTmVl2H

Fascination got to be the better choice, always. Didn't sleep well and my whole body has sensations. Somehow I got house stuff done and drove to the park . Beautiful sunny day here in London. Every different flare im rolling my eyes🙄

Keep on keeping on. Small steps in the right direction each day is still progress.

Hi it's me again just sent you a comment a couple of days ago. Forgot to mention I've had man mini strokes along with tinnitus and vertigo. Every day of my life for the last 15 years. Now I'm going into assisted living not sure it's the right thing or not. But have lost all excitement for life. Humidity , housework, everything makes my head worse. I've tried training brain to ignore tinnitus and vertigo it's not working. I'm sure I haven't done it long enough. I guess I'm giving up. But I live alone and very afraid. I can't work so I'm giving up my car also. I wish I could work more than anything. I will continue to watch you. I wish this was a success story. Thank you 😊

[@carolgray327]

Many mini strokes.

[@carolgray327]

Very terrified for last 15 years. Corrections

[@PainFreeYou]

Carol - are you working with medical professionals on the mini-strokes? Please do as they are medical issues. However, tinnitus and vertigo is quite often due to perceived danger.

That has been my problem. Hope you get some relief. A uro-gynecoligist repaired my Hunters Lesions but the fight or flight muscle contractions continued. Laying on a tennis ball helps relax the psoas muscle and these videos help a lot.

[@jennyadams5487]

This so helpful. Thank you once again Dan. I’ve been trying for over a year to do Alan Gordon’s Somatic tracking. I’ve found it difficult to get myself in the right headspace. Your podcast today feels like a breakthrough in understanding what somatic tracking is all about. I’m going to put it into practice straight away. You are a blessing. 😊

This is so so true! It really works! I call it 'going Spock' on the symptoms. Sometimes it works instantly...the symptoms vanish or drastically reduce.

I THINK THERE IS A PURPOSE TO ALL OF TMS/PDP - TO TAKE US TO A HIGHER LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS TO BECOME WHO WE ARE REALLY MEANT TO BE - A SERVICE TO MANKIND.

I love that meaning.

[@tominnc315]

This is vg. My brain may be starting to outsmart itself. Ill have a mild yet strange symptom pop up. Its too obvious that i didnt hurt myself! Some tendonitis some here, gone, back again. No symptoms all night then starts late AM. Gonna use the fascination effect. Cause its true

[@marieberglund149]

Hi Dan. I have a question again, every morning when I get up I sit in the sofa and it feels ok. And suddenly I get this crippling emotions that something’s is wrong ore scary senses in body ore brain. And I start sweating shaking and so on hart what to do? I am scaring myself and I don’t now why ore Hove to stop this.

Thanks Dan 🙏🏻

[@kwamegreen2569]

Thanks Dan. I think I can see how to use this practice with pain. How so I use it with exhaustion so deep that I feel that I have to sleep because I am too physically drained to fight the pull into unconsciousness?

[@PainFreeYou]

Same exact way. Teach the brain the exhaustion is not dangerous. Just substitute exhaustion for the word pain in any of my videos. To learn more, check out my fast start playlist. kzbin.info/aero/PLRJmnkn2kTTIl4frNvmpenr49xcTmVl2H

[@joannerowell4410]

I don't have fear about my back pain anymore. But I have had anxiety most of my life. Will this prevent me recovering from the pain completely as my brain is still perceiving danger?

[@1STBUCKLEY]

Anxiety another TMS thing

[@PainFreeYou]

No, anxiety is just another symptom of a brain perceiving danger. You can overcome that too. To learn more, check out my fast start playlist. kzbin.info/aero/PLRJmnkn2kTTIl4frNvmpenr49xcTmVl2H

Dan I still get the sensation in my neck laying on my back all night put pressure on that area I wake up with that sensation I still struggle with that sensation to not give it so much attention as bad.
