Please Rate , Review, & Follow this podcast.
This episode continues pain science education of fibromyalgia.
We continue the discussion about how pain and stress are related.
You need to understand that thoughts and beliefs influence the degree of pain, severity, and coping with pain.
Automatic thoughts – frequently occurring, situation-driven, thoughts often happen without our input or consciousness. They are automatic, without awareness, but influence the ultimate selection of the coping strategy.
We have beliefs about pain – the nature of pain, the cause of pain, and appropriate treatment, these beliefs influence distress and disability.
We also have acquired beliefs about our control of pain. We have many beliefs about our ability to cope with it, our ability to control pain, how effective we are in our own self-management of pain, and self-efficacy.
Our brain uses automatic thoughts and beliefs to cope with pain stressors and reduce the stress effect. Based on these thoughts and beliefs, we may have good and maladaptive coping behaviors.
Negative automatic thoughts generally worsen our mood, negatively affect our actions and increase the pain and other symptoms.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
