How can I live with non stop pain without pain killers? I’ve tried and am unable to, perhaps I need to seek out a new doctor? My doctor is a good man but I have been hurting and taking percocet for 5 years and am still where I started. Tell me how to get my body to relax and stop tensing up from pain and live with it. I really would like to know how to do this.

Yoga is a way of life, a conscious act, not a set or series of learning principles. The dexterity, grace, and poise you cultivate, as a matter of course, is the natural outcome of regular practice. You require no major effort. In fact trying hard will turn your practices into a humdrum, painful, even injurious routine and will eventually slow down your progress. Subsequently, and interestingly, the therapeutic effect of Yoga is the direct result of involving the mind totally in inspiring (breathing) the body to awaken. Yoga is probably the only form of physical activity that massages each and every one of the body’s glands and organs. This includes the prostate, a gland that seldom, if ever, gets externally stimulated in one’s whole life. Meditation Techniques Yoga

I am supremely happy that a medical doctor is writing this article. It proves that He knows a better way…..As he himself has learned and tried through practice both ways of healing…

Spiritual treatments for “Mental Wellness” have no bad side effects…and cost little to no cost at all compared to the thousands of dollars one may pay for medications the rest of their life. The biggest cost really, would be the time you put into learning spiritual and mental wellness practices and meditation techniques-

Understanding and establishing yourself in “Mental Wellness” would also help make one free of, and or prevent any further diseases from developing. To be medicine free and Mentally well should be the wanting desire of every man and women…Learning how to connect with the Reality of your soul, which is never sick and or in need of medicine is why we are here…..Everyman is here to evolve out of his false physical identification, including with it all sense of sin, sickness and death, into his true soul self in Perfect mental wellness ….

Thank You Deepak and all those doctors who are learning and practicing mental wellness and teaching it to their patients as the first and most important treatment you could ever give to another human being….

Love,
Gyanama

I agree with you absolutely. I think we are so disconnected from nature we have lost habits so simple as walking, so don´t even think about others needs calling from our bodies. We don´t even hear them. We are used to take some pill if disease comes and bothers us. That´s all. But it´s what we´ve been conditioned to by the big pharmacy industry. You can see pills shown on TV like the rest of the things are. Taking a pill is much easier than cooking properly and it takes a lot less time in this `rushing´ world we´ve created.
Ironically, lots of people spend huge amounts of time on their journeys to work in order to have a big house and a healthy life outside the city. I think that most of people search for a healthy living, but I think we simply tend to value it based on external things. I live in the center of a big city, air is not at its best quality, but I´m used to walk a lot more than most of people I know who need to take their car for everything, and as I don´t spend too much time on journeys to work, I have time to practice Yoga, and read about it a lot. It has taught me another way of living I am still learning, everyday. I am learning to listen to my body, and it´s always talking to me!
It´s not so easy to get used to eat properly, rest properly and keep an absolute respect for your body-mind all the time, but world will be different if people knew what this respect would do for them, and for humankind. Our bodies are full of power, but we are not conditioned to feel it. It´s a matter of culture like many other problems.

Thank you for so much knowledge, Dr. Chopra 🙂
