I used to think the same way, until three rib injuries forced me to spend entire nights with the sensation.\n\nWhat I found challenges the assumption that pain is a constant, unending stream. It actually moves in micro-undulations, and there's a specific somatic practice that lets you feel that.\n\nThis episode walks through pendulation, a somatic experiencing technique I practice with my coach, Whitney. It's a tool for staying with sensation instead of running from it.\n\nI'm drawn to this method over natural pain remedies, CBD, or other supports I could reach for. The interest isn't in eliminating sensation. It's in learning what's actually happening inside my body.\n\nYou’ll learn:\n\n[00:00] Introduction\n[00:07] What to do when you'd normally reach for a pill\n[00:22] Why I avoided chronic pain until this past year\n[00:47] The somatic experiencing practice called pendulation\n[01:24] Why pain is not a constant stream of torture\n[02:08] What changes when you stop resisting physical sensation\n[02:31] Step-by-step: how to pendulate through physical pain\n[03:26] Why a born skeptic was surprised this worked\n[03:43] Why I skip CBD, DMSO, and other natural options \n\n👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?
