It may sound surprising, but I’m actually grateful that I experienced chronic pain in the form of vulvodynia, interstitial cystitis, and vulvar vestibulitis. I found my way to Dr. Sarno’s pain relief (TMS) work and created health by treating my symptoms like TMS (tension myositis syndrome). In that journey, I discovered me. I discovered my spiritual connection to something greater than me. I discovered how to return to myself whenever I feel lost or confused.

This week, it’s Thanksgiving here in the United States, which means the theme of the week is gratitude. I thought it a perfect time to share the video below, a snippet from the upcoming documentary All the Rage on Dr. Sarno’s work. I love how Dr. Gabor Mate, author of When the Body Says No, talks about illness and gratitude.

All the Rage is a documentary that will offer viewers insight into the connection between their own emotions and health and how it is possible to control one’s pain. By profiling Dr. Sarno, talking with his patients, and explaining his theories the film will connect the dots between our emotions and our health. Further, by talking with other doctors like gastroenterologist Dr. David Clarke, and Dr. Gabor Mate, the film will help to illuminate the powerful connection between emotions and health.

I’m super excited to support this documentary, so I thought I’d share the Kickstarter Campaign with you, in case you’d like to support it, too. I’m grateful that Dr. Sarno’s work gave me my life back, so I’m delighted to see this film taking shape. It’s an amazing step toward raising awareness about mind-body healing and the connection between emotions and well-being.
