Wathed it again wrote it down so most of the things especially self soothing and relaxing my body talking to my brain walk in the dunes... Also say oh well this is temporary and shall pass. Love you Dan 😘😘😘
Thanks for the list! My brain absorbs best when listening/watching but I like to keep notes on my phone for when triggers arise in daily life, when I suddenly can't think clearly or remember my tools I can pull out a checklist to get back on track 😍
Thank you Dan for the examples. think the biggest message of safety for me is not rushing or being pressured to rush through decisions, tasks, Not hurrying taking my time makes a huge difference in my feeling of wellbeing. There are no tigers after me. 😂 feeling more present. Before it was hurry up so I can rest from fear symptoms. I am freaking out less- setting a peaceful boundary for myself in this area
A thousand BLESSINGS!!! THAT is what you are giving to SO MANY!!! ME , included!!! How very COUNTER-CULTURAL!!! THANK YOU, DAN!!! THANKYOU, GOD!!! i am SO GRATEFUL for finding You and YOUR LIFE-GIVING MESSAGE!!!
Dan, you are amazing! You help me face everyday! I'm 71 years old and have suffered from TMS since adolescents. My husband of 49 years has been telling me all this time it's in my head. Ha! I always thought he was just being mean. He was right! Now that I'm retired since COVID....it's worse without the work distractions. I have spent a fortune on exercise and muscle release products. I've stopped the daily pain treatment and I'm trying so hard and your words are the perfect equipment I need to start enjoying my life without fears. It is WORKING! I've tried this before but did not have much success after reading all Dr. Sarno's books. I needed someone to talk to me who understands! Thank you for all you do!
How are you doing now Karen? It sounds like you've had these problems for 50-60 years, though maybe not so bad that you were disabled, since you were able to work. It would be encouraging to see someone who has been chronic for that many decades make it out of this. I've had it to a disabling point for close to 3 decades now. I try not to let that be more intimidating, but it kind of is. Most people who come out of this haven't had it near as long.
Hi Karen, Like you, I’ve had TMS on and off for most of my life and I’m 70. Thankfully, there are times when it hasn’t been a problem. I have a slightly different orientation towards the whole thing, though I am on board with what TMS practitioners, including myself, suggest. I believe that because we’re a mind-body system, sometimes, especially when we have a lot of emotional material going on, those extra emotions have nowhere to go, so they become somatic. If you’ve ever looked at the ACE study by Kaiser, you know that it’s common for anyone who had childhood trauma to have TMS symptoms. The most important thing, in my opinion, is to not freak out. I have found that reminding myself there’s nothing really wrong with me is the most important message, though certainly not the only helpful one. Dan’s videos are incredibly helpful as they keep us on course.
58 and two decades of chronic stuff ...cannotveven work for well over 10 years. Awful. If tms stuff cannot help me nothing will. All the best..we r never too old to start feeling better 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@saintejeannedarc9460I am right there with you. Have had chronic pain sickness and disability for 35 years. It’s all I really know. I have not worked since I was 20 years old and I’m 54 now. Thank God I received disability in my 20’s and I’m now married to a good provider because the pain and sickness have been severe since my teens. I have been diagnosed with everything from CFS to fibromyalgia to arthritis and have been prescribed every drug under the sun and have had close to 20 surgeries including hysterectomy, hip, and shoulders. It IS more intimidating when it’s been decades and decades. I’m trying to learn and be positive. God bless you.
I wake up frightened. Years of being a trauma nurse, now retired I am learning I'm still subconsciously in fight or flight with no where to go. Until now. You are the first thing I see every morning with my coffee. Thank you so very much.
Singing! Even if you think you can't or you sound 'bad'..who cares? It's soo good for the soul, raises serotonin and dopamine levels. Listening to uplifting music is great in general. Also sound therapy is brilliant! I am a firm believer that music is medicine 🎵🎶💜🎤🎧🎹📻
Avoiding conversations with friends or family that are in a negative state and/or always have issues. It really has helped. I send them love and compassion instead.
I'm in a huge flare up, lots of symptoms and today sciatica pain was raging. I listened to a few of your videos before getting out of bed this morning. This one really hit the mark for me. Almost instantly the sciatica pain disappeared and my other symptoms became less. So much gratitude for your videos and compassion, Dan!
Another somewhat “strange” message of safety might be watching videos of happy or relaxed animals! I’ve found that watching videos of happy dogs having fun, or making funny snoring noises while sleeping, conveys a message of safety to me (as weird as that sounds). I think seeing how carefree animals can be might be helpful in retraining our brains to be a bit more live-and-let-live like they are.
Not strange at all! I do the same with watching cats, dogs and all animals doing amusing things. I especially love the ones that have human voices dubbed over them like KLR Productions on here 🤣
Child’s pose. Feels grounding. Moving my body parts in a mirror because I actually can’t see my pain. A reflection of me that doesn’t hurt. Rubbing my thumb and fingers together. Finger tips are soft, or gently caressing my face. Asking for strength from a higher power and surrounding myself with a warm golden light (a lot easier when I sit in the sun). Sitting by a river and visualizing my symptoms washing away.
Thankyou so much for your videos. I’ve been watching them most days to keep me on track. I’ve been doing nervous system work for a while but I realised how I was making it my whole life’s mission and now I see that that was keeping me stuck and feeling depressed as my life was so restricted and full of fear. It’s still a journey and I do use practices like brain retraining and somatic work for deeper trauma but I have found your short videos transformational, just the knowledge alone has relaxed my nervous system so much more. I have switched from focusing my whole days on ‘healing work’ to just doing practices when I need them but not being overly strict, and focusing the rest of the day on doing normal things that bring me joy. Like being social, pursuing my hobbies again of music and dance, I’ve even been working out most days and loving it - our bodies are so strong and capable!! Even though the journey isn’t perfect it’s so freeing to not feel controlled anymore. The idea of ‘don’t do too much’ that I have always heard in the CFS and POTS community - even in mind-body spaces - always caused so much confusion and fear. But now because of this knowledge combined with somatic experiencing and daily brain retraining etc for the past week I’ve had so much energy which is huge for me ( healing from TMS symptoms and one of the main ones was chronic fatigue). I can’t believe how much I’ve been able to do. I’ve worked more than usual, done a lot of exercise, socialised and just normal fun and life stuff. I now believe that like you said, focusing too much on healing is what keeps many of us stuck. Just being able to enjoy life again has been enough to lift secondary depression, give me hope and in turn give me that life energy back. Thankyou so much for all that you do. And I hope anyone else reading this is as encouraged as I am🎉.
THIS VIDEO IS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT VIDEO YOUVE EVER CREATED:) I’m basically out of the weeds now, still traveling through the woods a bit, but at least I’m on a trail now instead of constant brush and thorns. This is very helpful. Thankyou.
Doing little bits of QiGong thru the day is a really good one! Heaps of beginner's videos on u tube! Its kinda like a moving meditation and its great to do it outside, its like mindfulness and breathing practice all at once -super easy, gentle which is about all im managing w cfs/tms currently and its restorative -can do seated ones or standing 🦄
Losing my independence and confidence was a hard hit for me and having no life cos I'm literally scared to walk the stiffness petrifies me.... So today I left house alone got tired of asking for lifts so I got on the bus and just went to see friends.... I was anxious, high alert, uncomfortable wanted to turn back go home and just cry but I'm gonna go out tomorrow again.... U get fed up having no life. It was difficult not to talk about knees but i promised myself I would not!
Super I just listened to this video I just looked in the mirror and did the pose superwoman haha wrote the 24 examples down on a piece of paper got this from an reply on a video sooo thank you for this wonderful explanation love Lenneke ❤️🙏
Ans I’m so proud of you!!!! Yes, you are not the only one who has lost their independence and life through pain…. I lost my ability to work, moved into my parents house at 28 and stayed home while my husband was working for us. It sucked; but I tell you, IT GETS BETTER. Im basically healed now:) just a few mindset tweaks and not talking so much about stuff are my last few things. I hope you’re getting better from the last time you commented.
Really late, but there's actually good reasoning for that. Cat purrs can literally heal. They purr at certain frequencies that can both calm anxiety and the likes, plus heal the body of certain issues. Of course they'll purr the different frequencies at different times, depending on their mood or personal issues, but a happy cat on the lap usually purrs happily, which is what helps the anxiety. It's definitely one of the best benefits of having cats.
The powerful physiology is 💯 I actually purchased some miniature Rocky gloves and hung them up with a movie quote. I also purchased a cheerleading doll, and imagine her as me cheering me on through this. ☺️🙏🏽✨
I just tried these out on a very long car journey. I smiled, played my favourite musical, sang my heart out, spoke to my brain and reassured her and do you know what... I am home and I feel fine. Yes, I still have the pain but normally It would escalate and I would get a migraine but I just have this certainty that this won't happen. I feel safe as I know there is nothing wrong with my body. Thank you!!!!!!!!
@@PainFreeYou Thanks Dan. I am now making a list of all the things that I have proved aren't dangerous such as car rides, singing etc... It's going well. I've just joined the group program so I'll see you for the call later on today.
"Living your live instead of fixing it. And knowing this is temporary"- I needed this so bad after 30 years of migraine an depression. Thank you so much.🙏🙏🙏
Can we add prayer to the list? When I lay everything at the feet of Jesus, I feel so safe and relaxed. When I'm too stressed I know it's because I haven't started my day out right or taken the time to stop and let God know of all my worries.
i love this dan! i listened a second time & took notes. i would add engaging in something creative. i signed up for an abstract painting course this september and it’s been amazing. i am able to stand the whole time without any symptoms flaring. i even paint now at home for fun. getting lost in a creative endeavor is so calming. i love this list so much. i feel myself being more calm & relaxed about my flare already. oh and i would add another- playing with a pet or child. that’s another great way to get a break from my symptoms!!! thanks again.
Creating that sense of safety its really essencial. There are some examples that it makes sense, but others that you´ve shared, that can reeinforce repression (by pretending that its all ok). I would say that its not so much of what you do, but the inner attitude that you have while your are doing something. One can be mechanical and the other more conscious. Thank you for your sharings!
Love the point about meditation and other practices becoming a stressor when tied to the expectation of fixing - definitely resonates! Thank you Dan! I'm on this TMS recovery journey after being debilitated for years. Your kind guidance and reassurance is a 'consistent message of safety' for me. God bless you!
Dan, my name is mark. I saw your interview with Dr. Yo who I’ve been communicating with for several months. That was one of the best interviews to date. You now have me as one of your followers. I’m sure you’re aware of how much of a positive impact you and Dr. Yo are having on the TMS community. Thanks so much for your wonderful work. I’m susceptible to panic attacks when symptoms get harsh, freaking out as you put it. I’ve had my symptoms for 15 months now and still learning how to navigate TMS. Thank you so much.
Thanks Mark. If you haven't seen it yet, my fast start playlist is a must watch. DansFastStart.com - it explains what is going on and what to do about it.
This was incredibly helpful, particularly the part at the end about doing the things you like because you like them and they make you feel good, not because it’s another thing you think you “have to” do in order to “fix yourself” *ding ding ding* Spot on 😅 Thank you 🤗
This was a great one as they all are! I started listening to your videos a couple weeks ago and know that it's been extremely helpful. I now have frequent conversations with my brain and I'm noticing a difference in my symptoms. Thank you for everything!😊
Such a good video to come back to! Living life instead of fixing life was a good reminder. Got caught up doing meditations to try and fix the pain. The body freaked out, had a flareup. Meditation is not bad but shouldn't be doing it to try and "fix" me. Back to consistent messages of safety. Thank you ❤
Dan, thank you so much for all your videos, there is such a peace coming from you together with your knowledge due to you own experience, that is really palpable and juicy, all blessings for you Dear brother
I’ve been going through some really difficult mental and physical experiences these last few months and this video… really struck a chord with me. Watching this made me want to hang out with you. And hug you. I’m so sorry you had painful symptoms for 13 years. But I’m extremely grateful for this video and your understanding of this human experience. Thank you for this. And much love! ❤️
Hi Dan! Thanks so much for your videos, I’m finally starting to understand this concept of consistent messages of safety to my brain. One thing that has been helping me a lot is typing out a page each day of how I would like my life to feel and look like. I write it from the point of view that it’s happening now. I’m sure to be very descriptive. It’s kinda like rewriting the script of my life literally. I begin each page with “I woke up today feeling so good, refreshed and excited to start another beautiful day” I’m on day 4 of rewriting my life script but it’s crazy I can actually feel a difference when I wake up now.
I laughed when you said ‘don’t check after trying a ‘fix’ whether it ‘worked’ . I’ve done that each time I’ve tried something out. 😂 Thanks for this post. I’m learning something valuable, each day and will try on this new language to myself instead of letting the fear ride roughshod a lot of the time.
I have had a challenging weekend. This is just what I needed to get grounded again. Thank you! I would also add dancing.... I like to put on a feel good song and dance with abandon. It makes me smile and laugh and feel good in my body.
I played this over and over and over while I did my taxes today, and I completed them. I know listening to this helped, so thank you very much for bringing your perspectives forward and creating your videos now two+ years later!
Came across your videos at the perfect time, man. Not due to physical pain until recent days, but a history of childhood trauma and processing a recent break up from a long term relationship which involved DV. I've internalised so much psychological stress over the years, and always at high pressure jobs too, in the past week my kidneys started to feel like they're on fire and I know this is from years in fight or flight, catastrophising and feeling unsafe in general. Body is giving me a massive warning it can't sustain the way I've been operating. Here to learn to hopefully reverse and learn better habits.
Hi Rebecca. Sorry you are going through tough times. My fast start playlist is a great resource to review over and over to focus on the fundamentals. DansFastStart.com Be sure to do the assessments to make sure you are in the right place. IsThisPDP.com
Agreed Dan! You are amazing and wonderful. I have not been around so much in the past six months or more because I was feeling really good. I seem to have aggravated something in my low back last weekend and it’s been really sore and it was debilitating at times, and at times seemed like it was improving. Yesterday my husband said “you need to get back to Buglio”. That’s my new mantra - back to Buglio, back to Buglio. So this morning I walked with your 24.messages of safety. As always a great reminder of the basics. I so appreciate you - your data, and your sense of humor with the bug today, tractor boy, helicopter boy, etc. Thank you again, Donna
Keep in mind. Symptoms returning is not evidence you aggravated your back. But it is evidence that your brain is perceiving danger. Focus on safety and things will settle down soon.
thanks for this, Dan... for me? it's telling my brain that we are safe with Jesus also, sometimes i'm acutely aware that i'm in the matrix, and when i'm like that and i get a pain, i'll instantly quip to my brain 'stop that, it's fake' and the pain instantly goes away
Super helpful - I like ‘I’m walking on sunshine!’ 🎶 and writing and swimming and listening to good interviews - it’s time to get my haircut and buy new sneakers - and stop constant fixing of TMS
Hi I have TN. Which means I’m in severe pain often.The pain doesn’t let me sleep . I watched 1 of yr videos & applied your advice. I calmed myself down , spoke to my brain & said it’s ok it’s not bad & it will pass. I slept much better than I have in years 😃. I’m going to try all that have learnt from your videos & im sure it will have a profound affect in my pain & quality of life . I’ve also sent your videos to family & friends that are in chronic pain
laughter and upbeat music is more than a message of safety, there is the physiological release of endorphins which fight pain. Yes, setting aside time everyday for this is powerful
Wonderful video! I needed that today. A couple of my favorite safety messages are walks in nature, smiling in nature and tuning into my five senses, laughing with others, yoga, self hug, affirmations to myself, positive journaling-writing down happy thoughts and the good things that have happened to me during the day, singing and playing piano, and listening to lively music especially after work or when I’m commuting. Beast of Burden has been my go to jam this summer 😊😄 thanks Dan for all you do!
I am amazed to find your channel Dan! I have never heard of TMS before. Years ago, when I was in an emotional storm, I was able to identify my over all pain as despair. Once in a despair storm I asked to myself, what can I do? The words ‘just smile’ came into my head. I took the message seriously and worked hard at smiling. Very hard. And I finally got better. I never forgot that important and simple message. Just Smile. 😊 I have a message taped to my mirror. ‘Clear of Fear’ I still have to work at this daily. I gave up on therapy years and years ago. It never helped.
if i were working, i’d join your zoom in a minute. i’ll get there one day 🎉really like your style of calm voice and the delivery of your story road and your knowledge
The good news is that probably half of the people who come to me to do success stories have not been a paying client of mine. They have gotten well by implementing the concepts from my free videos. You can too. My fast start playlist is a great starting point for foundational insight. DansFastStart.com
This was quite validating for me. Yay! I’m on the right track. It’s reassuring that I haven’t lost my sense of humor - Carol Burnett bloopers are very helpful 😂(for me). And my new mantra I got recently from you is, “when you know… you know!” Thank you, Dan!
All great ideas. Not making ‘fixing’ a focus really resonates. It’s so easy to turn the ‘fixing activities’ into full time work thinking that will help but which I have no doubt is completely counterproductive.
Thank you … so many of these are part of my life just b/c they fill my heart and soul, I do them regardless of symptoms. They are a part of my life 🥰🙏🏼💜 I practice yoga, meditation, healthy cooking and creating recipes, exercise, walking in nature is a big one..💜💜 And listening to Jazz! Oh I almost forgot, I ground often-it’s so calming and fulfilling…🥰🥰🥰
Love this list, especially ‘Stop Fixing My Life and Start Living it!’ Best advice ever. Right now, I don’t completely agree with telling my brain ‘nothing is wrong’. I have arthritis in my knees. I tell my brain, “I’m okay” rather than ‘nothing is wrong’ because that’s more factual. You explain Things better than the folks at Kaiser, who are teaching the pain management class I’m attending.
What you say does make a lot of sense - thank you - the body takes over with the horrible symptoms - and they do take your attention - and remembering the breathing, I notice mine goes so shallow and it feels like a big effort to get that breathe in. Also the self help - doing it because it just feels good, rather than fixing stuff, I notice that I have been doing this too.
Watching again! This is a wonderful list of reminders. When I turn on music it makes a big difference, helps me get through mundane chores for which I have no enthusiasm and when I start moving and dancing to the music my smile gets very big. Thx Dan.
What a wonderful perspective. Years ago I posted a message by my sink, Breathe and Smile. And although I tried everything in-between to “fix” myself, until I found this beloved work, and my intuition was pointing me I never really understood the brain-body connection, this is a whole new world and what a trip it is, this is fun to do, now that I understand and acknowledge it’s the journey. So although it took me three-quarters of a lifetime to arrive at the beginning, I’m pretty overwhelmed that others found the path, a joyous path, the path of least resistance. Much respect
💫💫💫💫💫 I like all those, especially the bonus one. I have found doing something creative really is good for me. I have been painting. There are many instructors on RUclips.
Just heard this great video Rewatched it and took notes I will not stop my life no matter how much pain I’m in I will take that trip and I will go to the gym every day… Thank you for all the videos you post daily ❤️😎
Thanks Dan your advice is great. You sound so much like the program I am doing by Debora Wayne of High Speed Healing and Marisa Peer shares a lot of the same ideas. You give such simple advice. I have been chasing my tail for years trying to find answers looking into nervous system, fixing my gut, vagus nerve, trauma, but listening to you and telling myself I don't need fixing 😂
You are absolutely in the right place. My Fast Start checklist is a great way to get a deeper understanding on what is going on and what to do about it. ruclips.net/p/PLRJmnkn2kTTIl4frNvmpenr49xcTmVl2H
noticing all the animals on my balcony, mostly birds (even little tiny bugs/spiders), and watching them live their day to day. Talking to them and hoping they feel my good energy. I used to be afraid of the spiders but now I let them be and have given them lovely names. Also: wearing clothes that make me feel put together, especially a good pair of shoes. Boots for confidence, and sneakers for adaptability. When I put on sneakers/athletic shoes, I feel like getting things done (this is a known hack other people swear by too), especially around-the-home errands like cleaning, taking out trash etc. I have carpets and I absolutely have a pair of indoor-only sneakers! Also on clothes: odd, but COMPRESSION clothes during the day make me feel great! Socks, or sometimes even shapewear, especially around the torso. I feel comforted and also very sleek. I like the posture I get. In the evening, really soft things to lounge in.
love this - especially the over focus on all the RUclips healing videos of symptoms! thats me lol! chorines dizziness here - once I get one last brain MRI for medical clearance it's time to really lean into this work. It's just so hard when symptoms come up and I'm so dizzy I just don't know how to deal in those moments! I'm hoping if I actually do this work they will come less and less
This is an awesome list! I have temporary tinnitus 😀 and your videos have helped me tremendously. Thank you, Dan. Now I’m going to go and play some happy upbeat music! 🎶
That is awesome. I snorkeled in Maui. I think there's a place called Turtle Alley where there are tons of sea turtles. I also snorkeled at Molokini island. Amazing times. Enjoy the beauty.
Wow appreciate the link to this. One of your best Sermons as im not breathing not laughing not loose not outside enough. Ive been wallowing with google instead , pushing and testing pain areas
When you realize that you aren't broken, your brain just thinks you are - we can use that knowledge to dial down the fear. Nothing dangerous is actually going on.

Yes this is sooo helpful, writing them down…It’s nice to hear Dans words of wisdom written out clearly like that 👍🏻
Thank you Dan for the examples. think the biggest message of safety for me is not rushing or being pressured to rush through decisions, tasks,

Love it Joanne.
Avoiding conversations with friends or family that are in a negative state and/or always have issues. It really has helped. I send them love and compassion instead.

Love it.
Dan your like the dad we all needed😅! Really find your videos helpful and comforting ❤️
Haha - Daddy Dan. Love it. Thrilled that you are finding my videos helpful.
This is true lol
Another somewhat “strange” message of safety might be watching videos of happy or relaxed animals! I’ve found that watching videos of happy dogs having fun, or making funny snoring noises while sleeping, conveys a message of safety to me (as weird as that sounds). I think seeing how carefree animals can be might be helpful in retraining our brains to be a bit more live-and-let-live like they are.
Love that!
Check out Bibi the Monkey here on YT
Not strange at all! I do the same with watching cats, dogs and all animals doing amusing things. I especially love the ones that have human voices dubbed over them like KLR Productions on here 🤣
I watched that when in labor and it helped me until transition!!! When I couldn't laugh anymore I knew it was baby time haha!
Love watching horse vids. Mums and foals. Really feel good. Animals are awesome to watch. So authentic and without pretense.
Child’s pose. Feels grounding. Moving my body parts in a mirror because I actually can’t see my pain. A reflection of me that doesn’t hurt. Rubbing my thumb and fingers together. Finger tips are soft, or gently caressing my face. Asking for strength from a higher power and surrounding myself with a warm golden light (a lot easier when I sit in the sun). Sitting by a river and visualizing my symptoms washing away.
You are saving lives. I'm extremely grateful to have found your channel!!!!!
Wow - thank you. Humbled.
Thankyou so much for your videos. I’ve been watching them most days to keep me on track. I’ve been doing nervous system work for a while but I realised how I was making it my whole life’s mission and now I see that that was keeping me stuck and feeling depressed as my life was so restricted and full of fear. It’s still a journey and I do use practices like brain retraining and somatic work for deeper trauma but I have found your short videos transformational, just the knowledge alone has relaxed my nervous system so much more. I have switched from focusing my whole days on ‘healing work’ to just doing practices when I need them but not being overly strict, and focusing the rest of the day on doing normal things that bring me joy. Like being social, pursuing my hobbies again of music and dance, I’ve even been working out most days and loving it - our bodies are so strong and capable!! Even though the journey isn’t perfect it’s so freeing to not feel controlled anymore. The idea of ‘don’t do too much’ that I have always heard in the CFS and POTS community - even in mind-body spaces - always caused so much confusion and fear. But now because of this knowledge combined with somatic experiencing and daily brain retraining etc for the past week I’ve had so much energy which is huge for me ( healing from TMS symptoms and one of the main ones was chronic fatigue). I can’t believe how much I’ve been able to do. I’ve worked more than usual, done a lot of exercise, socialised and just normal fun and life stuff. I now believe that like you said, focusing too much on healing is what keeps many of us stuck. Just being able to enjoy life again has been enough to lift secondary depression, give me hope and in turn give me that life energy back. Thankyou so much for all that you do. And I hope anyone else reading this is as encouraged as I am🎉.
Thrilled you are feeling encouraged. And thank you for sharing your experience and insights. Great comment.
Love this. Thanks for sharing ❤
THIS VIDEO IS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT VIDEO YOUVE EVER CREATED:) I’m basically out of the weeds now, still traveling through the woods a bit, but at least I’m on a trail now instead of constant brush and thorns. This is very helpful. Thankyou.
Wow - thank you. Really appreciate that.
Doing little bits of QiGong thru the day is a really good one! Heaps of beginner's videos on u tube! Its kinda like a moving meditation and its great to do it outside, its like mindfulness and breathing practice all at once -super easy, gentle which is about all im managing w cfs/tms currently and its restorative -can do seated ones or standing 🦄
Losing my independence and confidence was a hard hit for me and having no life cos I'm literally scared to walk the stiffness petrifies me.... So today I left house alone got tired of asking for lifts so I got on the bus and just went to see friends.... I was anxious, high alert, uncomfortable wanted to turn back go home and just cry but I'm gonna go out tomorrow again.... U get fed up having no life. It was difficult not to talk about knees but i promised myself I would not!
What a big step you took! Congratulations 🎊
Good for you. Often, stepping outside our comfort zone is what it takes to take back our lives.
Super I just listened to this video I just looked in the mirror and did the pose superwoman haha wrote the 24 examples down on a piece of paper got this from an reply on a video sooo thank you for this wonderful explanation love Lenneke ❤️🙏
Hey ans how are you now it's been a year ❤
Ans I’m so proud of you!!!! Yes, you are not the only one who has lost their independence and life through pain…. I lost my ability to work, moved into my parents house at 28 and stayed home while my husband was working for us. It sucked; but I tell you, IT GETS BETTER. Im basically healed now:) just a few mindset tweaks and not talking so much about stuff are my last few things. I hope you’re getting better from the last time you commented.
Listening to my cat purring on my lap and watching him play always make me feel happy and at peace! Thanks for another great video
Love it.
Really late, but there's actually good reasoning for that. Cat purrs can literally heal. They purr at certain frequencies that can both calm anxiety and the likes, plus heal the body of certain issues. Of course they'll purr the different frequencies at different times, depending on their mood or personal issues, but a happy cat on the lap usually purrs happily, which is what helps the anxiety. It's definitely one of the best benefits of having cats.
defo - pets - yes ! I really miss my cats. No pets at mo, first time in 5O odd years, but they are so good to have in your life .
The powerful physiology is 💯 I actually purchased some miniature Rocky gloves and hung them up with a movie quote. I also purchased a cheerleading doll, and imagine her as me cheering me on through this. ☺️🙏🏽✨
Love that!!!
Great start of the day listening to this consistent Messages of safety. Thank you .
You are so welcome
Great compilation Dan. I would add: Dancing (anything) and Singing!!! Those two help boost our mood and send great vibes to the brain.
Awesome - thank you for the suggestions
@@PainFreeYou another one: Singing mantras (knowing the meaning and the hum vibes send an immediate message of safety and peace to our brain
One more: EFT/ Tapping.
This video is GOLD. Just rewatched it to remind myself of ways to signal safety, and there is just so much good stuff in here. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I just tried these out on a very long car journey. I smiled, played my favourite musical, sang my heart out, spoke to my brain and reassured her and do you know what... I am home and I feel fine. Yes, I still have the pain but normally It would escalate and I would get a migraine but I just have this certainty that this won't happen. I feel safe as I know there is nothing wrong with my body. Thank you!!!!!!!!
Beautiful. Love hearing about you putting the concepts into action.
@@PainFreeYou Thanks Dan. I am now making a list of all the things that I have proved aren't dangerous such as car rides, singing etc... It's going well. I've just joined the group program so I'll see you for the call later on today.
@@christieharrison560 Look forward to seeing you later in the group session. 🙂
"Living your live instead of fixing it. And knowing this is temporary"- I needed this so bad after 30 years of migraine an depression. Thank you so much.🙏🙏🙏
Wish you the best
Can we add prayer to the list? When I lay everything at the feet of Jesus, I feel so safe and relaxed. When I'm too stressed I know it's because I haven't started my day out right or taken the time to stop and let God know of all my worries.
Yes, absolutely.
"Ok, here's the messages of safety, btw we might get tornados" *exhales deeply*
Phew - hope you are okay!
i love this dan! i listened a second time & took notes. i would add engaging in something creative. i signed up for an abstract painting course this september and it’s been amazing. i am able to stand the whole time without any symptoms flaring. i even paint now at home for fun. getting lost in a creative endeavor is so calming. i love this list so much. i feel myself being more calm & relaxed about my flare already. oh and i would add another- playing with a pet or child. that’s another great way to get a break from my symptoms!!! thanks again.
Love your additions. :-)
yes defo - something creative - i am trying to get back into crafting or maybe try painting classes - anything huh , its got to be good for you
Creating that sense of safety its really essencial. There are some examples that it makes sense, but others that you´ve shared, that can reeinforce repression (by pretending that its all ok). I would say that its not so much of what you do, but the inner attitude that you have while your are doing something. One can be mechanical and the other more conscious. Thank you for your sharings!
Love the point about meditation and other practices becoming a stressor when tied to the expectation of fixing - definitely resonates! Thank you Dan! I'm on this TMS recovery journey after being debilitated for years. Your kind guidance and reassurance is a 'consistent message of safety' for me. God bless you!
This shall too pass, remember feelings always pass but you have to let them go in order for them to leave :)
Dan, thank you for the video, I had anxiety chest pains- been checked out by doctors. I feel much better now. All the best from Scotland 🏴
Dan, my name is mark. I saw your interview with Dr. Yo who I’ve been communicating with for several months. That was one of the best interviews to date. You now have me as one of your followers. I’m sure you’re aware of how much of a positive impact you and Dr. Yo are having on the TMS community. Thanks so much for your wonderful work.
I’m susceptible to panic attacks when symptoms get harsh, freaking out as you put it. I’ve had my symptoms for 15 months now and still learning how to navigate TMS. Thank you so much.
Thanks Mark. If you haven't seen it yet, my fast start playlist is a must watch.
DansFastStart.com - it explains what is going on and what to do about it.
What is TMS
This was incredibly helpful, particularly the part at the end about doing the things you like because you like them and they make you feel good, not because it’s another thing you think you “have to” do in order to “fix yourself” *ding ding ding* Spot on 😅 Thank you 🤗
Faith in god and bellief that faith heals is an amazing parallel! I have been healed!
This was a great one as they all are! I started listening to your videos a couple weeks ago and know that it's been extremely helpful. I now have frequent conversations with my brain and I'm noticing a difference in my symptoms. Thank you for everything!😊
Such a good video to come back to! Living life instead of fixing life was a good reminder. Got caught up doing meditations to try and fix the pain. The body freaked out, had a flareup. Meditation is not bad but shouldn't be doing it to try and "fix" me. Back to consistent messages of safety. Thank you ❤
Dan, thank you so much for all your videos, there is such a peace coming from you together with your knowledge due to you own experience, that is really palpable and juicy, all blessings for you Dear brother
Thank you brother.
Listened to it again - a Golden oldie ❤
I’ve been going through some really difficult mental and physical experiences these last few months and this video… really struck a chord with me. Watching this made me want to hang out with you. And hug you. I’m so sorry you had painful symptoms for 13 years. But I’m extremely grateful for this video and your understanding of this human experience. Thank you for this. And much love! ❤️
thank you Shawn.
I just found this and I think this will be one of my daily videos to listen to because it's easy to fall back into bad habits. So thank you for that.
Glad you enjoy it!
Love the calm and reassuring delivery! TY
Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou! 💗 I have reach my point, have enough of living in fear and pain! Will try to change my life now! I want my life back. 💖
Wonderful! You are on the right path.
Hi Dan! Thanks so much for your videos, I’m finally starting to understand this concept of consistent messages of safety to my brain.
One thing that has been helping me a lot is typing out a page each day of how I would like my life to feel and look like. I write it from the point of view that it’s happening now. I’m sure to be very descriptive. It’s kinda like rewriting the script of my life literally. I begin each page with “I woke up today feeling so good, refreshed and excited to start another beautiful day”
I’m on day 4 of rewriting my life script but it’s crazy I can actually feel a difference when I wake up now.
I love that approach. Thank you for sharing it with me.
Needed this so badly today, Dan. Smiling and taking big relaxing breaths, and staying positive and indifferent about this pain flare
You can do it.
I laughed when you said ‘don’t check after trying a ‘fix’ whether it ‘worked’ . I’ve done that each time I’ve tried something out. 😂 Thanks for this post. I’m learning something valuable, each day and will try on this new language to myself instead of letting the fear ride roughshod a lot of the time.
I have had a challenging weekend. This is just what I needed to get grounded again. Thank you! I would also add dancing.... I like to put on a feel good song and dance with abandon. It makes me smile and laugh and feel good in my body.
Glad you found it helpful.
I played this over and over and over while I did my taxes today, and I completed them. I know listening to this helped, so thank you very much for bringing your perspectives forward and creating your videos now two+ years later!
Glad it helped!
This is my favorite video of yours, Dan :) I rewatch often
Thank you, Dan. Really appreciate you and your videos.
Meditating on the Word will work wonders♥️
I love changing the meaning of TMS to temporary mind-body syndrome.
Thats why I like the mind body connection. Or else it's another syndrome I have "collected" and will become part of my personality.
Dan, I cannot express how much your videos are like a mint of fresh air to me. Thank you.
Glad you like them!
Came across your videos at the perfect time, man. Not due to physical pain until recent days, but a history of childhood trauma and processing a recent break up from a long term relationship which involved DV. I've internalised so much psychological stress over the years, and always at high pressure jobs too, in the past week my kidneys started to feel like they're on fire and I know this is from years in fight or flight, catastrophising and feeling unsafe in general. Body is giving me a massive warning it can't sustain the way I've been operating. Here to learn to hopefully reverse and learn better habits.
Hi Rebecca. Sorry you are going through tough times. My fast start playlist is a great resource to review over and over to focus on the fundamentals. DansFastStart.com
Be sure to do the assessments to make sure you are in the right place.
IsThisPDP.com
Agreed Dan! You are amazing and wonderful. I have not been around so much in the past six months or more because I was feeling really good. I seem to have aggravated something in my low back last weekend and it’s been really sore and it was debilitating at times, and at times seemed like it was improving. Yesterday my husband said “you need to get back to Buglio”.
That’s my new mantra -
back to Buglio,
back to Buglio. So this morning I walked with your 24.messages of safety. As always a great reminder of the basics.
I so appreciate you - your data, and your sense of humor with the bug today, tractor boy, helicopter boy, etc. Thank you again,
Donna
Keep in mind. Symptoms returning is not evidence you aggravated your back. But it is evidence that your brain is perceiving danger. Focus on safety and things will settle down soon.
@@PainFreeYou Right! Oh yeah. Good reminder. And I do have more stress going on now. 💪
thanks for this, Dan... for me? it's telling my brain that we are safe with Jesus
also, sometimes i'm acutely aware that i'm in the matrix, and when i'm like that and i get a pain, i'll instantly quip to my brain 'stop that, it's fake' and the pain instantly goes away
Awesome.
Super helpful - I like ‘I’m walking on sunshine!’ 🎶 and writing and swimming and listening to good interviews - it’s time to get my haircut and buy new sneakers - and stop constant fixing of TMS
Yes, exactly.
Definitely a ‘best of Dan’ video.
Thanks Adam
This is an absolute GEM of a talk!
Thank you.
I discovered your channel this morning and am so happy I have. This is just what I've been needing to hear. Thank you so much.
Hi
I have TN. Which means I’m in severe pain often.The pain doesn’t let me sleep . I watched 1 of yr videos & applied your advice. I calmed myself down , spoke to my brain & said it’s ok it’s not bad & it will pass. I slept much better than I have in years 😃. I’m going to try all that have learnt from your videos & im sure it will have a profound affect in my pain & quality of life . I’ve also sent your videos to family & friends that are in chronic pain
How are you?
laughter and upbeat music is more than a message of safety, there is the physiological release of endorphins which fight pain. Yes, setting aside time everyday for this is powerful
Awesome. :-)
Thank you so much. Just found your channel.
You are so welcome!
Wonderful video! I needed that today. A couple of my favorite safety messages are walks in nature, smiling in nature and tuning into my five senses, laughing with others, yoga, self hug, affirmations to myself, positive journaling-writing down happy thoughts and the good things that have happened to me during the day, singing and playing piano, and listening to lively music especially after work or when I’m commuting. Beast of Burden has been my go to jam this summer 😊😄 thanks Dan for all you do!
Thanks for sharing!!
I did really like this list.
I am a year late..but RUclips brought me this. So Good! All the ways to feel Safe. I Loved this one! Thank You..Dan! 😊❤
Here's a newer one on safety. ruclips.net/video/Ez9Ez49M8Ig/видео.html
I am amazed to find your channel Dan! I have never heard of TMS before.
Years ago, when I was in an emotional storm, I was able to identify my over all pain as despair. Once in a despair storm I asked to myself, what can I do? The words ‘just smile’ came into my head. I took the message seriously and worked hard at smiling. Very hard. And I finally got better. I never forgot that important and simple message. Just Smile. 😊
I have a message taped to my mirror. ‘Clear of Fear’ I still have to work at this daily.
I gave up on therapy years and years ago. It never helped.
if i were working, i’d join your zoom in a minute. i’ll get there one day 🎉really like your style of calm voice and the delivery of your story road and your knowledge
The good news is that probably half of the people who come to me to do success stories have not been a paying client of mine. They have gotten well by implementing the concepts from my free videos. You can too. My fast start playlist is a great starting point for foundational insight. DansFastStart.com
This was quite validating for me. Yay! I’m on the right track. It’s reassuring that I haven’t lost my sense of humor - Carol Burnett bloopers are very helpful 😂(for me). And my new mantra I got recently from you is, “when you know… you know!” Thank you, Dan!
All great ideas. Not making ‘fixing’ a focus really resonates. It’s so easy to turn the ‘fixing activities’ into full time work thinking that will help but which I have no doubt is completely counterproductive.
So true!
Thank you for showing me this video.. Love you 😘😘😘
i love love love your videos. I feel calm the whole time im watching you x
Thank you … so many of these are part of my life just b/c they fill my heart and soul, I do them regardless of symptoms. They are a part of my life 🥰🙏🏼💜
I practice yoga, meditation, healthy cooking and creating recipes, exercise, walking in nature is a big one..💜💜
And listening to Jazz! Oh I almost forgot, I ground often-it’s so calming and fulfilling…🥰🥰🥰
Grounding - I need to do more of that myself. And sunshine.
I love it Dan! There is a documentary about it, if you haven’t watched it 👌🏼😉
“Earthing”
@@marly1869 I am aware. Just haven't put it into a daily practice.
Thank You!
Love this list, especially ‘Stop Fixing My Life and Start Living it!’ Best advice ever. Right now, I don’t completely agree with telling my brain ‘nothing is wrong’. I have arthritis in my knees. I tell my brain, “I’m okay” rather than ‘nothing is wrong’ because that’s more factual.
You explain Things better than the folks at Kaiser, who are teaching the pain management class I’m attending.
What you say does make a lot of sense - thank you - the body takes over with the horrible symptoms - and they do take your attention - and remembering the breathing, I notice mine goes so shallow and it feels like a big effort to get that breathe in. Also the self help - doing it because it just feels good, rather than fixing stuff, I notice that I have been doing this too.
That’s actually a good coping skill
OMG so useful. I LOVE that you do most of your videos outdoors, e.g. here with the loud sound of the cicadas. That really helps.
Glad you like them!
Watching again! This is a wonderful list of reminders. When I turn on music it makes a big difference, helps me get through mundane chores for which I have no enthusiasm and when I start moving and dancing to the music my smile gets very big. Thx Dan.
Awesome. Jam on!
What a wonderful perspective. Years ago I posted a message by my sink, Breathe and Smile. And although I tried everything in-between to “fix” myself, until I found this beloved work, and my intuition was pointing me I never really understood the brain-body connection, this is a whole new world and what a trip it is, this is fun to do, now that I understand and acknowledge it’s the journey. So although it took me three-quarters of a lifetime to arrive at the beginning, I’m pretty overwhelmed that others found the path, a joyous path, the path of least resistance. Much respect
…ps a horse would look real good in that little barn 💗
Haha - probably would. It's just a shed for gardening tools and lawn mowers. But I agree. Would love a horse.
Thanks for sharing your experience and insights. Welcome!
💫💫💫💫💫 I like all those, especially the bonus one. I have found doing something creative really is good for me. I have been painting. There are many instructors on RUclips.
Love that!
Thank you for so wonderful healing positive tips many people in the world are in need of.
My pleasure.
Love you Dan thank you
Just heard this great video
Rewatched it and took notes
I will not stop my life no matter how much pain I’m in
I will take that trip and I will go to the gym every day…
Thank you for all the videos you post daily ❤️😎
Wonderful!
Love this so much. I took notes that I will leave out to remind myself throughout the day. Thank you!!!!
Wonderful!
Bloody fantastic Dan !!! This will be printed and on the wall. Thank you.
Thank you for being so clear and for helping us! It’s appreciated ❤
Happy to help!
Hello from Sydney, Australia 🦘🐨🇦🇺
Thanks Dan your advice is great. You sound so much like the program I am doing by Debora Wayne of High Speed Healing and Marisa Peer shares a lot of the same ideas. You give such simple advice. I have been chasing my tail for years trying to find answers looking into nervous system, fixing my gut, vagus nerve, trauma, but listening to you and telling myself I don't need fixing 😂
You are absolutely in the right place. My Fast Start checklist is a great way to get a deeper understanding on what is going on and what to do about it. ruclips.net/p/PLRJmnkn2kTTIl4frNvmpenr49xcTmVl2H
noticing all the animals on my balcony, mostly birds (even little tiny bugs/spiders), and watching them live their day to day. Talking to them and hoping they feel my good energy. I used to be afraid of the spiders but now I let them be and have given them lovely names.
Also: wearing clothes that make me feel put together, especially a good pair of shoes. Boots for confidence, and sneakers for adaptability. When I put on sneakers/athletic shoes, I feel like getting things done (this is a known hack other people swear by too), especially around-the-home errands like cleaning, taking out trash etc. I have carpets and I absolutely have a pair of indoor-only sneakers!
Also on clothes: odd, but COMPRESSION clothes during the day make me feel great! Socks, or sometimes even shapewear, especially around the torso. I feel comforted and also very sleek. I like the posture I get. In the evening, really soft things to lounge in.
Very good sir!
love this - especially the over focus on all the RUclips healing videos of symptoms! thats me lol! chorines dizziness here - once I get one last brain MRI for medical clearance it's time to really lean into this work. It's just so hard when symptoms come up and I'm so dizzy I just don't know how to deal in those moments! I'm hoping if I actually do this work they will come less and less
Watch these videos often. Learn, take notes, implement.
ruclips.net/p/PLRJmnkn2kTTIl4frNvmpenr49xcTmVl2H
I took your advice and went back and watched this video . I got a good giggle with the James Brown singing. Thanks Dan
Awesome. Laughter is a good thing.
Love a good T-Storm 😊
This is an awesome list! I have temporary tinnitus 😀 and your videos have helped me tremendously. Thank you, Dan. Now I’m going to go and play some happy upbeat music! 🎶
Great to hear!
Absolutely LOVE this! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!! 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
I found this list super helpful. Thanks to you, I'm heading off to do some snorkeling- my favorite thing- in Hawaii! I can do this.
That is awesome. I snorkeled in Maui. I think there's a place called Turtle Alley where there are tons of sea turtles. I also snorkeled at Molokini island. Amazing times. Enjoy the beauty.
Wow appreciate the link to this. One of your best Sermons as im not breathing not laughing not loose not outside enough. Ive been wallowing with google instead , pushing and testing pain areas
When you realize that you aren't broken, your brain just thinks you are - we can use that knowledge to dial down the fear. Nothing dangerous is actually going on.
