Exploring Pain - Part 1

Pain can seem like a harsh landscape- barren, with nothing to offer except suffering. And yet pain can be a gateway in to understand our own biology, our own inner workings more intimately. 

In this month's workshop I endeavor to introduce target concepts of pain science to help begin understanding what pain is. 

A couple of the conecpts we will dive into:

- All pain is real and personal

- Pain as a biopsychosocial construct (an expression of consciousness)

- Pain and imaging results are poorly connected
