Do you live with chronic back or neck pain?

Did your doctor tell you that this is “all part of getting older” and that there’s nothing they can do?

Do you ever wonder why people with similar back and neck degeneration experience drastically different pain levels, some not at all?

Do you ever wonder why so many childhood trauma victims suffer from chronic, debilitating pain?

Studies worldwide have shown that the presence of early trauma appears to confer a two- to three-fold risk of later development of chronic pain.

Our guest, Rose Barnes-Covenant, is a Pain Recovery Coach with a Master’s in Public Health. Rose suffered severe back pain, a condition she thought was a life sentence until she read about Neuro-circuit pain and how her early childhood trauma likely set her up to experience pain more severely. She learned all about the brain-body connection, and from there, how to retrain her brain to process pain differently.

Rose grew up with a depressed mother who struggled with chronic low back pain and an emotionally unstable and unpredictable father. The emotional neglect made Rose feel unloved, invalidated, and unsafe. To cope, she put a lot of pressure on herself to be perfect. To protect herself, her brain became hyper-vigilant, constantly scanning for what might go wrong next. This hypervigilance eventually manifested in physical pain signals, where her brain was sending her severe physical pain to try to keep her safe. As anxiety and fear wove into the chronic pain, it became a self-perpetuating cycle and Rose was stuck in a cycle of constant back pain for over 6 years.

“It’s not just in your head, it’s in the neuropathways in your brain, and you can heal by picking better thoughts.” — Rose Barnes-Covenant

In this episode, Rose shares in great detail how she worked through her pain by changing how she perceives and processes pain. If you are tired of dealing with persistent pain and are ready for a better solution, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
