Some enjoy getting a massage, others feel it invades their privacy.  A bunch of Australian clinicians at the Neuro Orthopaedic Institute (NOI), have developed a framework to help you apply this principle to explore the many factors that can influence your personal sense of safety and threat and how this might impact your pain. Your pain may fluctuate a lot and although some pain flares may occur at random, many will be influenced by factors that impact on your deeper sense of safety. They have labelled things that raise your sense of threat DIMS – Danger In Me. SIMS are factors that increase your sense of safety – Safety In Me. We invite you to look at the next document and fill in the blank squares with your personal SIMS and DIMS. The idea is to become aware of your sense of threat and to consider ways to increase your sense of safety when navigating tricky situations \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0102\/6916\/3582\/files\/Module_3.1_Protectometer_Chart.pdf?v=1757460385\" title=\"Protectometer\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProtectometer HE3274\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Stress response\" href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/1096448313\/c4b60aafeb\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eListen to Bronwyn, Natalie and Cara used their understanding of the stress response to help manage their pain\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2F1096448313%2Fc4b60aafeb\u0026amp;data=05%7C02%7CKatherine.Wharton%40tewhatuora.govt.nz%7Cdf9b77f401bc4244113608dde9ebd8c8%7Cbed4da513cdb4d0dbaf8fb80d53268e3%7C0%7C0%7C638923921384904246%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C\u0026amp;sdata=9jZvJ9BzHgO2mFP0TCYpLNWymjwJwXpiJDO%2BgifpgJE%3D\u0026amp;reserved=0\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn summary:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003ePain activates the stress response and stress increases pain.

Often, people experiencing chronic pain want to avoid those sensations, rather than notice them! The purpose of this exercise is to practice noticing the sensations, as they are, without judgement. Allowing sensations to be, as they are, without getting caught in our thoughts about them can allow a bit of distance to unhook (like in the sushi train video) and choose what we want to do (like in the beach ball illustration). Give it a try, if it’s too tricky today to notice sensations in a particular body part it’s okay to skip it (do another area twice, or tune in to your breathing). If you do skip it today, you’re encouraged to come back and try it out again another time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2F1132275418%2F31e791dffb%3Fshare%3Dcopy%26fl%3Dsv%26fe%3Dci\u0026amp;data=05%7C02%7CKatherine.Wharton%40tewhatuora.govt.nz%7C83a926eeab8641b5e5a008de2d706403%7Cbed4da513cdb4d0dbaf8fb80d53268e3%7C0%7C0%7C638998157969139697%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C\u0026amp;sdata=9DK%2FIdnnwFYghQEqIevxaqUsXuvwPZK2DLtMcSrdshM%3D\u0026amp;reserved=0\"\u003eThe body scan\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother useful exercise is this \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Mindfulness mountain meditation\" href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/1126072222\/04aad5db63\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMindful Mountain Meditation\u003c\/a\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2F1126072222%2F04aad5db63\u0026amp;data=05%7C02%7CKatherine.Wharton%40tewhatuora.govt.nz%7C83a926eeab8641b5e5a008de2d706403%7Cbed4da513cdb4d0dbaf8fb80d53268e3%7C0%7C0%7C638998157969150394%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C\u0026amp;sdata=NWT2cPPmGAmyv5p3%2BwZud2za0sdwV9kpnt6d9KHLGh0%3D\u0026amp;reserved=0\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are many resources available to support you in becoming more mindful. \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Mindfulness in practice\" href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0102\/6916\/3582\/files\/Mindfulness_in_Practice_HE3243.pdf?v=1764286506\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMindfulness in Practice HE3243\u003c\/a\u003e has a range of links you may wish to explore, including research findings on using mindfulness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTip: Be mindful\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse your \"beginner's\" mind to experience situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"circle\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStay curious and open, without judgement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNotice your thoughts but just let them be thoughts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo need to automatically believe or to argue with them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eListen to how this topic has helped other patients \u003ca title=\"Listen to the thinking and feeling stories\" href=\"https:\/\/aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2F1099494484%2F0b4701b8cd\u0026amp;data=05%7C02%7CKatherine.Wharton%40tewhatuora.govt.nz%7C83a926eeab8641b5e5a008de2d706403%7Cbed4da513cdb4d0dbaf8fb80d53268e3%7C0%7C0%7C638998157969161371%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C\u0026amp;sdata=o99Wsa0a7Xx%2F1BOnhIPsPaoPLydNWw6zWJt3z927kMw%3D\u0026amp;reserved=0\"\u003eListen to the thinking and feeling stories\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; color: #1f497d; mso-ligatures: standardcontextual;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HealthEd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47100644819172,"sku":"PMP08","price":0.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0102\/6916\/3582\/files\/PMP08thumbnail.jpg?v=1764286435"},{"product_id":"ece-information-leaflet-english-he1034","title":"ECE information leaflet -
