I'm a full on believer! Believing in this method I have "cured" bouts of acid reflux, panic attacks, back & neck pain, IC, sciatica, pinched nerves, etc!

Out of curiosity, those of you who had success with his material... what specific actions helped you the most? Was it the journaling, the exercising, the self-talk, or something else all together? -- I'm a long-time meditator and this has helped me a lot with easing habitual tension.

@japermoon
Self-talk and mantras for me :)

Which mantra? 🤓

Similar to what I do too. Remind myself that I'm safe, that this is temporary, etc. But I do find that journaling (following "journalspeak" type prompts) & meditation helps too.

Interesting! I’ll check it out. I famously think Descartes ruined everything

Love your use of “famously”, do you happen to be a Poog listener?

@lidarichardson

Lol no (I've heard amazing things) but I think it's an epidemic across alt comedy; I think I first picked it up from friends who listened to Seek Treatment

@japermoon
Well consider this a rec within a rec - Poog is one of only two podcasts i listen to consistently

There was a good documentary called All the Rage about the filmmaker’s experiences with John Sarno and this book. Streaming on Kanopy (or at least used to be - worth checking out!)

@Ella McMahan There is another version which I think came first that is specifically for back pain. I know a few people that have had hugely positive experiences with this method for back pain. Feel better!
