    Responding to today’s prompt: I intellectually can identify the feelings I think turn on my pain, but a) the pain seems constant, b) I live in my head, not in my body! The other day I did some journaling and thought my head was pretty quiet. Then, all of a sudden, my pain went nuts and I started balling my eyes out - but I didn’t emotionally “feel” anything! I really want this program to work for me. A mentor asked when I was going to stop disassociating from my body. But, I’m not sure how to do that.

    Once you control your mind you can conquer your body. If you really want it you can have it. You can't achieve any goals without discipline. Through hard work, determination and self-focus, and discipline you can accomplish anything. God speed!

    Have you tried breathing in combination with somatic tracking as Alan Gordon preaches?
