Key Points

· Pain is not solely felt in the body, but is an output of the brain.

· Pain is a communication tool used by the brain to alter behavior and promote safety.

· Outputs can be both safety outputs (like pain) and empowering outputs.

· The biopsychosocial model of pain considers the biological, psychological, and social factors that contribute to pain. The brain is a highly suggestive organ that can influence pain perception.

· Empowering language and positive suggestions can have a significant impact on pain management.

· The placebo effect is a real and powerful phenomenon that should be explored and utilized.

· Movement is medicine and can help in pain management. It is important to keep moving and try different forms of movement.

· Subtle interventions can have profound effects on the body and brain.

· Finding joy in activities outside of studying or work is important for overall well-being.
