For those suffering from chronic pain of any kind, medication is a costly solution that can have mixed results. Side effects can be just as persistent as the pain, and many times those who suffer from constant pain are forced to choose either a lesser pain or an uncomfortable side effect. But what if there were a natural solution? What if your mind could release healing chemicals that are just as effective as pharmaceuticals, with none of the cost or toxic side effects?
Creative visualization and relaxation (CVR) provides a new solution. Acclaimed therapist Patrick K. Porter, PhD, has developed a new CVR program titled Pain-Free Lifestyle. His techniques are designed to help eliminate chronic pain in a natural way, quickly and easily. The program helps those who suffer from chronic pain realize that the most powerful remedy they have lies within their own mind.
Dr. Porter's Pain-Free Lifestyle program utilizes thirteen individual CVR sessions to focus on all aspects of pain management. "Activate Your Mental Pharmacy," the second session of the program, teaches a listener to naturally relieve pain and discomfort from their body. Instead of using expensive and sometimes toxic pharmaceuticals, Dr. Porter leads the listener through an exercise that uses the power of their mind as an alternative solution. (Of course, CVR should be integrated into a total pain management plan, and medication should not be discontinued without discussion and approval of a medical doctor.)
CVR is designed to relax the body and open the mind to change. When in a state of deep relaxation during Activate Your Mental Pharmacy, the listener creates a trigger that signals the brain to release healing chemicals designed to take away pain in the body quickly and naturally. The process also helps the listener learn to stop being afraid of the pain and truly embrace a pain-free lifestyle.
What are these healing brain chemicals that are released through the CVR process? The most significant and effective results of CVR are the increase in endorphin and serotonin levels. CVR can increase serotonin levels by twenty-one percent, while endorphin levels are increased by twenty-five percent. This is a very significant increase, one that brings about an overall sense of calm and well-being in the body. Endorphins, in particular, provide natural pain relief and act as natural anti-depressants.
CVR not only addresses the physical aspects of pain, but also helps one address their mental well-being. Chronic pain can leave sufferers with recurring mental and emotional effects to cope with. Activating serotonin and endorphins calm the body, increase feelings of pleasure and love, increase brain alertness, and encourage a positive mindset by acting as natural anti-depressants.
The key element to this process is relaxation. The listener is lead through a series of relaxation and breathing techniques by Dr. Porter. They become more relaxed throughout the process, and then find it easier to relax and focus when awake. Most are unaware of any discomfort while listening to the process, and this helps them absorb the information provided in the exercise.
Using CVR, chronic pain sufferers can provide instant relief to specific areas of the body by directing the healing brain chemicals released during the relaxation process. Most listeners will benefit immediately, noticing results the first time they listen to Dr. Porter's process. With repeated practice, these healing chemicals can be activated easily and more effectively, providing relief to the exact source of pain within the body.
Dr. Porter's program makes each day better than the one before for those who are plagued by chronic pain. Listeners notice differences in their life, from the first time they try CVR to the day they are truly living a pain-free life. In addition to relief from persistent pain, listeners experience many healthy "side-effects" from the process: more healthful diet, better eating patterns, motivation to do exercises that are safe and therapeutic for the body, and a release and freedom from fear and anger. Life improves every day as they employ their mind as a solution and make peace with their body.
Dr. Porter encourages his listeners to relax, and get used to the feeling. By activating their mental pharmacy, chronic pain sufferers are taking an important step in living a totally pain-free life. The process ends with a mental vacation, a place where the listener can enjoy the present moment, free from pain, and just relax.
Dr. Porter has been working with the creative visualization and relaxation process for over twenty years, helping people to change their minds in order to change their lives. His pain-free program is designed to supplement the care and recommendations of a medical doctor. He stresses that listeners should never discontinue prescription use without first consulting their medical doctor. - 15438
