THE EIGHTFOLD PATH

1. Right View or Understanding—Developing a greater awareness of sources of suffering in our lives, sources of release from suffering, and aspects of reality that help us live differently, such as the understanding that actions have consequences.

2. Right Intention—Cultivating thoughts and intentions based on non- harming, letting go of grasping, and strengthening lovingkindness.

3. Right Speech—When speaking, we aim for speech that is truthful, helpful, kind, and timed wisely.

4. Right Action—Acting in ways that do not cause harm, such as not taking life, not stealing, and not engaging in sexual misconduct, so as to deepen peace within oneself and harmony in one’s community.

5. Right Livelihood—Making an ethically sound living; being honest in business dealings.

6. Right Effort—Practicing letting go of thoughts and feelings that create suffering for ourselves and others, and cultivating those that foster connection, wisdom, and true happiness for ourselves and others.

7. Right Mindfulness—Practicing mindfulness of one’s body, feelings, mind, and mental qualities.

8. Right Concentration—Developing the ability to focus our attention steadily in a wholesome way, without filters of grasping or aversion.

Word.

🌟There is never just ONE thing that makes pain.

💡Pain is a biopsychosocial issue -- which means that there are ALWAYS cognitive, emotional, behavioral, biological, social, AND environmental triggers.

🙏🏼 While pain is complex, it is ABSOLUTELY possible to determine your triggers. And once you know them, you can *CHANGE THEM*💥💥💥💥

✨ if this info might be helpful for your community, please share & help me spread the word✨

When people ask me what type of people I work on, I respond “people in pain”.

Pain science is WORTH understanding. In fact your chances of getting through and past pain are greatly improved if you cognitively understand how pain works. This is an excellent introduction from a leading US practitioner.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more, let me know.
