Why do we describe pain as *burning*, *sharp*, *like a vice* or *like a knot*?

Those metaphors aren’t accidental. In this video I explain how the brain naturally represents pain and demonstrate a simple self-hypnosis exercise that encourages you to change that representation.

It’s a practical technique rooted in psychology and modern pain science.

If you’d like to learn the science behind it, together with several more practical techniques, I’ve written a detailed article here on this website: Self-Hypnosis for Pain Relief and if you’d prefer for me to guide you through pain reducing hypnosis processes, take a look at my hypnosis audio programme here: Pain Relief Hypnosis Audio Sessions.
