On difficult days I visualize me with a big phone ringing you up Dan: ‘hello painfree- you? It’s painfree- me here’😄 I always have to giggle with my own ‘ stupidity’ and that calms my symptoms down instantly! But the visual of painfree- me is not stupid, it’s my future!! And everyone else here too! Have a lovely Easter-Monday ❤
LOVE this encouragement to end the investigation of "why" with "my brain perceived something as dangerous". End of investigation. On to solution: reassuring brain I'm safe.
Needed to hear this Dan still in al lot of emotional stress I keep telling my brain 🧠 that stress or emotions don't need to hurt my brain is perceiving danger i am responding calm and dont doubt you are the best Dan love you always ❤️ ♥️ 💜 💖 💕
I have a huge struggle separating life stress from the body pain 😭. I know I am ok and I am safe. I don’t fear the pains like I used too. Thank you for helping so many!!
Hey folks, after a few tough days I woke up early and went to the coffee shop. I really didn’t feel like it. ( mornings are always the worst). After that I went to get groceries, then post office. When I got back home at noon, I noticed the symptoms were greatly decreased compared to same time yesterday. The hardest door to get out is your own front door but the rewards are great!
I needed this reminder Dan. I had a really long awesome stretch of feeling amazing- about 10 months of minimal symptoms!!! And the past few days I’ve had my tms greatest hits flaring!! I totally freaked out and panicked at first. I’m truly grateful for my PFY soul sisters who gave me the pep talks I needed to get out of complete frustration. I don’t think I could do life without them! Also I opened up my journal to notes on your “exiting the storm” video which was exactly what I needed. Symptoms are still going but I’m getting my mindset back and leaning into safety. I know I am not going back to square one and I’ll be back to my deadlifts in no time. “I can sit calmly in the storm because I KNOW IT WILL PASS!”
You’ve helped me so much! I went more than 6 months without back pain and now am having a little flare up-- but thanks to your videos, I am keeping out of panic mode. THANK YOU❤
Very encouraging ❤ reset the mindset. Been having alot of family stressors lately, and it's good to be reminded that those things don't have to cause me physical pain or panic mode. Calm and graceful, trusting God will work it all out, knowing that I don't have to figure everything out....being able to let go of that control and just allow things to be. Emotions are safe to feel. It's ok❤
I will give away a billion dollars if I could just get rid of this complete exhaustion to the point where it feels I'm just going to fall over and die.😖😖😖🤦🏼♂️
Been there. I have had success with detaching from it. Go, okay, I do not care. When my body is tired, it will get the rest it needs, I do not need to scare myself w that.
Thank you. Had a night of tossing bc I accidentally labeled a back tension from going on a long car cruise yesterday. Mind you , gorgeous Spring weather, car ran perfect, but oh I suddenly remembered how I always used to feel after long cruises.. and guess what, tossed all night...duh!!! I love finding your vids! Perfect today...laughing at myself now for buying into that nonsense lol.🎉😂
I found for myself with TMS it is hard to know what I am experiencing physically-it all seems to register as pain. So I have to TELL myself, I went to the gym, it’s just muscle soreness.
My symptoms worsened the last days. It seemed to be linked to emotions or something surpredssed ..trapped trauma in the body. Soooooo tired and exhausted for years but lately it is worse. I am kust trying to ride it and search the meaning behind it
Try somatic tracing. It did it for me. It is safr to feel emotions. Make sure you tell yourself it is oke to feel amgery, sad,.. but the trick is to release them afterwards. Go in to body and stay with tje emotion without the story attacjed to it. Sitting with it without judging is or resisting it tells your brain and body that it is safe. And you notice your body release it.
I'd love to see a "top 5 things to do" video on first steps for dealing with an issue such as sitting causes pain, or a specific gym exercise causes pain. For example even though I 100 % believe i have tms, my body still hurts doing specific things. Should i do them gently carefully so as to teach and convince my system that it is tms? Love your videos, amazing content.
Today all the joints feel inflamed. My excuse, I put on other footwear. Big mistake labelling it. I made myself get up the ladder, albeit fearful tbh, cleared top of wardrobe. Got out and managed to sit through an Easter Monday Mass abd then a walk in the park. I could just go to bed abd sleep lol clocks changing always throws me. Great video. Thanks.
Hey Dan, I have tried and look for the PDP assesment you keep referring to (the one with the 19 questions), but there is not website for it. Would you be able to share the link on your next video please, or to post it somewhere? Thanks so much x
whenever I exercise i always get pain BUT as my Mom always said No Pain No Gain. Used to happen after most Ballet Classes when I was in my teens. Mind is the maker right Dan?... Thanks for your talks.
Panic: ruclips.net/video/oKG2PuaRwyM/видео.html Anxiety: ruclips.net/video/HrCEu_dRkXk/видео.html I don't see them as a "disorder". I see them as a state created by a brain perceiving danger. What I map out for pain or other symptoms also applies to panic and anxiety. DansFastStart.com
I am there. My mom severely restricted her diet, i swore i would never do that. I know so nany people that do that and try to talk others into it. I know people that think weather is doing it. No, weather might a little bit, it is preceiving danger that makes that debilitating.
Dan need your advice. I haven’t slept well for the last couple of nights and my body now feels like I’ve gone 10 rounds with Mike Tyson, how do I overcome this?
The brain is perceiving poor sleep as danger and that's what is causing symptoms. Change the story, lose the fear. Trust your body will be fine whether there is enough sleep or not. Take the pressure off yourself to sleep well. Allow it to happen. Try not to fear a bad night sleep as fear often prevents sleep. It's all about creating safety.

Hello Dan, firstly thank you your daily videos🙏 I have sitting pain/tightening after 20-25mins (varies/day) or at standing up movement after longer sitting. After I stand up/walk the pain suddenly goes away. When the pain comes can't sit much more, have to move. Had a cyst surgery one year ago when the above symptoms began. Can it be TMS now? According the assessment - yes; but still confused bit, unfortunately i am not getting much better yet.
I'm living with my chronic gastric pain everyday and push through, but some days I'm so overwhelmed by the pain that I'm unable to cope and have to call in sick at work etc.
Treat the right arm with the same lack of concern. That's proof it's not a shoulder issue. It's TMS/PDP. My fast start playlist maps it all out: DansFastStart.com
Question please...how do I UN- label conditions symptoms etc. ..please lead me to one of your video links. I'm going thru them and love them. Just wondered if there's a hax to get these unlabeled??? Thx!
Not that I am aware of, but I have heard someone saying that their relative refused to accept their parkinsons diagnosis and was able to eliminate their shaking. There is NO downside and only benefit to telling yourself a new story and creating safety consistently in your life.

That is amazing!
I like this visual. I'm going to borrow this one with the big phone too. 😊 Happy Easter Monday ❤🌷🌼
This is so cute bless you. May we all get symptom free soon as, was gonna say better, but we already are
Today I´m not really in a good mood, will be in the group call later to find some encouragement.... ❤

Proud of you Larry. If you want to do more, start doing more. Your brain notices. Hey, look, Larry is doing normal stuff, he must be okay!!!

Calm is the way. Panic is never part of the solution. But you know this. You've got this!
Trying to let go of when & just trust it will happen. I’ve done this before. This isn’t anything different.
KNOW you are okay and safe and not broken or sick. Focus on Safety. ruclips.net/video/PNaCAKao3ws/видео.html @@AMBoyd721

You will feel great soon. No fear, no panic, calm confidence. No doubt, it will fade quickly.
“Stress is not the problem. It is the believe that stress causes symptoms.” That quote was SO eye-opening.
Great video, as usual Dan. Sometimes I say to doubt and fear "come let's have tea" Makes me smile. 🥰
Very encouraging ❤ reset the mindset.

I know this feeling too. Feeling like I'm about to pass out, keel over and die.🥴 Wish you (and everyone) success in your (our) recovery🙏❤

The first video in my playlist explains what causes symptoms. DansFastStart.com
Your videos are so calming and reassuring. Thank you for the consistency. God bless you 🤍

I wouldn't use any energy trying to find out why. Exhaustion is exhausting.

In a flair up, you're starting from experience - capture the mindset of calm confidence, of certainty. Thx Dan

I’m doing the calming and speaking to my brain etc but pain is not going away…. I must keep on keeping on
It takes time and consistency. And authenticity too.
❤🙏🦄really appreciated hearing this video today, just a tiny bit of reassurance hels so much
My pleasure.
Thank you for your great videos.
Your voice is very calming. ❤

I mention it in the videos. IsThisPDP.com - that will take you to the page with the 19 questions. Read through the text of this page.
Thanks Dan. This helps me so much.
The video the mindset is so good. I wrote it down and i read it when the pain is flaring.😊
You are so welcome.
Doubt is a liar!
Totally agree Nancy. 🥰
Thank you😊

Hello Dan,
Can you make a video about generalized anxiety and panic disorders?
Panic: ruclips.net/video/oKG2PuaRwyM/видео.html
Anxiety: ruclips.net/video/HrCEu_dRkXk/видео.html
I don't see them as a "disorder". I see them as a state created by a brain perceiving danger. What I map out for pain or other symptoms also applies to panic and anxiety. DansFastStart.com

The most important message: Stress causes symptoms, it is true, but we can unlearn this connection so that stress doesn't cause us symptoms.
do you think this applies to pem too?

It's especially hard because you have to put food in your sick stomach all day and I have the proof (test results) that my stomach is inflamed.
Okay - but what is the cause of it? This video is my take on digestive issues:

After 2 years dealing with frozen shoulder in left arm it is 75% better 😂🎉guess where it moved? Right arm😢

If you do a RUclips search for Pain Free You let go of medical labels, you will find a number of Dan's videos on that exact topic.
Thank you very much💜
Have you helped anyone with Parkinson's?

Sometimes symptoms can increase from legit one bad night sleep, who cares it’s normal haha
Yes absolutely. I had a bad night 5 days ago and pain is still really high.
@@joannerowell4410 all you do is just say
This is situational pain or fatigue,
I had a bad night sleep and it’s normal to feel this way, once I get my sleep okay then boom I’ll be on track again
