Found freedom ,

Get the app!

I stumbled on one of these podcasts months ago and didn’t fully connect. But I recently found the Curable app and I would recommend that as a starting point! (also it’s not expensive)

There is so so much there, so much supportive help, knowledge, options for all kinds of learning and exercises from which to choose.

I’m being challenged, but also shown empathy, and I have all sorts of expert advice available to me. The podcast episodes can be linked from the app as well and they support the learning and help available on the app.

I don’t know if anyone has looked at their medical board of advisors on their website, but it’s quite impressive.

The three founders - wow I commend you for doing this work. It seems like the whole world should know about it! Very professional and science backed, and really creative in engaging with app users.

I am hopeful to move forward in my healing journey. Thank you.

Every human should listen to this podcast

Over 10 years ago, I recovered from a terrible bout of back pain. It was a very classic mind body story of running out of all other options, and finally coming back to the miraculous insights of Dr. John Sarno, other clinicians and a pain psychologist.

I have experienced hip pain for the last three years. I previously had surgery on that hip so it never occurred to me that it might not be related to that surgery. I had an MRI and an injection that only helped for a couple of months. When I asked the physiatrist if I was correct in saying that the MRI showed mild and likely normal wear and tear t I realized it must be caused by the mind-body connection.

This podcast has energized me to reconnect with the resources and processes I need to not only work on curing my hip pain, but also to integrate the knowledge and techniques going forward in my life.

So happy I found this!

This podcast is a bright light in the chronic pain world. Easy to listen, great guests and practical examples. I just got the Curable app as well excited to see what will unfold. The episode ‘How to get back to your favorite activities with or without pain’ with Dr. Asare Christian was amazing. Seeing it from a neurologist perspective was eye opening.
