Those of us who deal with pain on a daily basis, I believe are greatly hampered by language when it comes to incorporating well-being into our lives. I have noticed over the years that there is actually no word that describes a non-pain state, without using the word pain: PAIN-less, no pain, pain free, pain relief, etc., etc.
When we are in the throes of pain, the immediate cessation of it becomes all-absorbing, with our attention focused--stuck, really--on the experience of the pain. There is no "go to" concept we can focus on that is "not pain", other than focusing on what doesn't hurt, which, again, includes pain in the desire of it. It's no wonder it is so easy to get caught up in the "pain cycle'--the more it hurts, the more it traps your attention, which then leads to more of it.
Last week, I got into a fascinating discussion with a local Native American "medicine man", Jake, who asked me, "How is your 'shool'?"
After observing the blank look on my face, he continued. "Have you ever heard of the idea of 'loosh'?" Yes, I had, actually. Loosh is the energy of suffering--the low frequency energy of pain and agony, and it is said that it's an energy that vampiristic beings feed off of to increase their own energy.
"Yes," Jake continued. "We just turn that concept around, and what you have is a word for your sense of well-being. We like to use it to describe a spectrum, where low shool is where it is difficult to spot anywhere on your body or your life where something feels good; and then high shool, is where you feel fantastically alive and high vibe."
I nodded, suddenly realizing he was answering this question I'd had for years.
"When there is pervasive pain, usually the first thing we do is try to get rid of it, when the healing thing to do is to acknowledge with gratitude where in your body there is no pain. We call it 'finding your shool," he gazed at me and I realized that although my shoulders were aching and my knees hurt, my lower back felt really good.
"Yes, concentrate on that. Give that your energy and attention, and it will expand," he added right after my thoughts.
As Jake left the room, I was elated to have a wonderful tool with this shool thing. In Manifestation 101, we learn that what we put our attention on expands. This is the problem with pain, so we turn to external chemical means--analgesics, NSAIDs, and such nostrums, to just get our attention off of it. This is why the shool concept is so valuable. We can now rest our attention on those areas of the body that feel good, or at the very least, don't hurt, and by turning our attention thus, those good feelings can expand.
Jake also advised that we can increase our shool where there is pain, by noticing that there is some part of that painful area that feels okay, or even feels good. He said that in order for pain to exist, there has to be its opposite present--and that's shool.
Our sense of proprioception is greatly affected by pain. Limping is a good example. We change how we feel movement in our body by avoiding the movements that trigger pain. In the Feldenkrais Method, the practitioner slowly and gently moves the body into those areas where there has been a proprioceptive avoidance of pain, demonstrating that either there is greater range of motion than was thought, or that the proprioceptive reaction is no longer necessary--basically allowing shool to expand in the area.
This goes much deeper into what it means to hurt, to suffer, and to eventually start defining ourselves by our state of pain--changing our social behaviors, altering our physical movements, and justifying the pain by accepting it as a part of who we are in the world. This is all a result of pain fixation, and not realizing that there is shool within the pain that is the gateway to healing.
Again, back to Manifestation 101, Joe Dispenza said it well: "You have to feel whole before your healing; you would have to feel abundance before your wealth; you would have to feel awe before the mystical moment; you would have to feel love before your new relationship; and you would have to feel empowered before your success." So, I would add you would need to feel shool before your healing.
To your quantum health,

Many past studies have addressed the synching of nervous systems between couples in relationship, as well as behavioral patterns. But for this new study, the authors wanted to determine the relationship between pain sensation and touch. Lead author Pavel Goldstein came up with the idea after he witnessed the birth of his daughter four years ago.
Scientists have reminded us today that even the simplest things--our voice for example--have potentially huge impacts in space communication.
In your body, particular cells perform specific functions. Neurons, for example, make up the different parts of the nervous system, including your brain and nerves. You’d be surprised, therefore, to find that your intestines also contain neurons – about 100 million of them, in fact. That’s more neurons than even the spinal cord is made of.
This is a healing technique developed and used by Hawaiian shamans (kahunas). It is a form of imaginal light healing, having four distinct parts to the process, and is especially useful in distance healing. The basic principle is that the kahuna recognizes her part in the creation of disease in another, by virtue of the fact that because she is aware of this disease in another person, she in fact, is a co-creator of it. The kahuna then applies the technique of Honoponono in this way: Holding the disease in her imagination, she then addresses the disease with, "I'm sorry, forgive me, thank you, I love you." These languaged energies have the effect of dispersing or collapsing the energies of the disease in another person, allowing their body's healing powers to prevail. Of course, this can also be used on oneself. You can use this technique along with Take it Away and Gratitude. (From

Dr. Yury Kronn, creator of Vital Force Technology (VFT), is able to generate, transmit and amplify an unlimited variety of patterns of Subtle Energy, called Chi by Traditional Chinese Medicine and philosophy, or called Prana by Ayurveda, and recognized by all Eastern Traditions as the life sustaining force of the universe. Using VFT, Dr. Kronn developed methods of copying the energy patterns of gems, crystals, herbs and other substances and infusing them into concentrated trace minerals and other carriers of Subtle Energy. The ability of gemstones to invigorate the spirit, balance the emotions and heal the body has been known since ancient times. What kind of energy do they possess that gives them these healing properties? How does this energy relate to human structure? Can modern medical science use the healing properties of gems and crystals? Is it possible to bring the energies of the world's best gems, crystals and minerals to millions of people? Try them and see! Use the handy "search" function to find gem elixirs to help with your conditions and concerns. Use discount code FACEBK20 for 20% off any gem elixir. 
The E-3 Revitalizing and Repair Lotion has been a mainstay for pain relief and first aid for over 20 years, helping thousands get to the root of their pain and resolving it. E-3 is based on quantum physics research, and works like "liquid acupuncture", re-establishing energy flows across the injured or painful area, which is the primary case of pain. E-3 immediately goes to work, speeding healing and bringing relief. E-3 is also excellent for wounds, insect bites--even acne, shown to cut healing time in half. E-3 works wonderfully on swellings, localized inflammation, and acute aches and pains. Although E-3 shines as first aid (and any household should have it), chronic pains and injuries benefit from long-term use. Apply E-3 on the palms and soles of the feet for whole-body benefits of increased energy connection. Use E-3 on the breastbone, over the thymus, to normalize the immune system. The subtle energy signature in E-3 is carried by a hypoallergenic non-greasy organic cream, that in itself is excellent for the skin. Use discount code E330 for 30% off E-3 (does not apply to case prices) 
A 2013 study on mice published in the journal Brain, Structure and Function used differed types of noise and silence and monitored the effect the sound and silence had on the brains of the mice. The silence was intended to be the control in the study but what they found was surprising. The scientists discovered that when the mice were exposed to two hours of silence per day they developed new cells in the hippocampus. The hippocampus is a region of the brain associated with memory, emotion and learning.
"Now what we see is these patients transition from intermittent episodes of pain to really chronic pain. And we think there's a transition where the cause of their pain changes. It's actually mediated by abnormalities in the pain system itself."

Reverse Engineer Your Pain
After being on the spiritual discovery path for most of my 63 years, I've come to see that there are just about as many approaches to how to go about this journey as there are people. In other words, spiritual journeys are a deeply individual experience, and ultimately, only the journeyer can decide which way to go, or what approach to take. 
The reason this is such a significant approach is because the structure of pain and dis-ease in the body is underpinned, anchored and given form by the emotions or feelings from which it arose. By re-experiencing these emotions, we're able to effectively "reverse-engineer" and de-construct our pain.
Another one of my favorite teachers, 
, always emphasized that emotion is "E, energy, in - MOTION". When the motion stops or is obstructed in some way, either by denial or lack of interest, or misunderstanding, it eventually creates physical disease and discomfort.
I was listening to body expert and 
How do you NOT focus on the pain? By acknowledging it. It is the practice of allowance. You are not resisting or avoiding it, you are simply allowing its presence--simply allowing it to be a communication from your body. This creates space between you and the pain, because it has succeeded in getting your attention, which is the purpose of it.
The results of a study conducted with the use of Wim Hof method suggest that a person can learn to consciously control his immune responses. Wim Hof is a Dutch world record holder who is famous worldwide for his ability to resist cold. For this incredible invulnerability to cold, he was commonly nicknamed "the Iceman”.
Groundbreaking new results show targeted subtle energy patterns, sometimes referred to as bioenergetic patterns, have a significant positive impact on human cell growth and mitochondrial membrane potential.
Dr. Ellen Slawsby, an assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at the Benson-Henry Institute for Mind-Body Medicine at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital, recommends these mind-body techniques to help to override established pain signals and reduce the need for medication:

In my own case, in the past, for several years, I had debilitating lower lumbar disc inflammations that would put me in bed sometimes because I could not move without extreme pain in my back and down both legs. I suffered greatly because I kept judging how unfair it was, and why me, an active, professional musician who ate right, exercised, took good care of himself should be burdened with this disability. Sometimes I cried. Not so much because of the pain, but because of the circumstances of it--and the situation I was in because of it.
Anyone who has a serious disability, for example, Stephen Hawking, absolutely could not be in suffering and do the things he's done. Sure, he's probably in a lot of pain, but his vision, will, and determination to live his life cancels out what could be certainly the best of reasons to suffer.
We humans struggle so with such earnest and angst about problems, issues, decisions, and judgments, when 99% of it is an illusion. And even that awareness can be equally upsetting.
The "road" Watts refers to is made of decision and intention. We decide to leave the past and the future, and intend to experience joy. The space between leaving the non-present, and entering into the now, is what we call "time". Have you noticed that when you are fully in joy, or even just really happy, time fades away. And yet, when we are in pain, time seems to go on forever.
On the other hand... a person with a pain in his knee has faith that it is a new energy pattern to improve or heal a weak knee. The person is excited about having a healed knee, and in a few days, the pain is gone, and the knee feels stronger.
