Ditto! I appreciate all of Mikes posts. I am going to order this for my daughter. She will try anything to help with pain. I think the book would be helpful in my understanding of her pain as well. This reminds me of Mind, Body Spirit that my daughter learned at the Cleveland Clinic Childrens Pain Program. Thanks again Mike.

Mike you are the best.

Sandy

I can't as yet speak for the Youtube presentation as I haven't seen it , but I plan to view it this week.

Shinzen Young's CD has helped me cope through many, many a night of intense pain. He guides the listener through a series of techniques on how to regard the pain, rather than fight it and resist it; He helps me to identify it, pinpoint it, break it down into smaller pieces, rather than one big, huge overwhelming avalanche of pain.
In the middle of the night, when I am feeling most lonely and in pain, with just my thoughts, my pain and the length of night ahead, his expertise, guidance, and comforting objective understanding of pain (its essence, without any connotation) have carried me through, with his help, on my own.
I only wish that everyone could have a copy of his book and CD, (which I ordered on-line)
This is a brief post, but I wanted to get it out there to support Mike's appreciation of Young and his work and study.
