Chronic pain is often misunderstood, and many people feel like they have no choice but to live with it. But what if pain could be unlearned? In this episode of Building Resilience, I sit down with Dr. Howard Schubiner, one of the world's leading experts on chronic pain, to explore the science behind pain, the role of the brain in creating pain, and how neuroplasticity allows us to rewire our pain experience.
Dr. Schubiner has dedicated his career to understanding the mind-body connection in pain, helping people break free from years—even decades—of chronic suffering. We talk about:
✅ The revolutionary science behind how pain is created and why it persists
✅ The difference between acute and chronic pain
✅ Why traditional medical approaches often fail to address the root cause
✅ How emotional pain and stress contribute to physical pain
✅ The role of neuroplasticity in healing and how to unlearn pain
✅ Actionable strategies to rewire the brain and break free from chronic pain
Whether you struggle with chronic pain, anxiety, or other unexplained symptoms—or if you have a loved one who does—this episode is packed with insights that could change your life.
