Episode #122- Pain When Things Are Good
Manage episode 389705589 series 2817381
Pain when things are good is a phenomenon I see when people are unlearning pain and learning to regulate their nervous systems.
When you're used to being in high alert, then letting your guard down and feeling safe can actually seem dangerous.
We can expand our ability to stay in the "rest and repair state" longer, but some people have learned resting is "lazy" or having fun is "selfish".
Watch for this in yourself- if your symptoms come in a time of more calm or peace, don't worry!
This is actually a sign your nervous system is EXPANDING.
The rest and repair state can become more normal for you than survival mode, but the nervous system has to go through growth to get there.
