Rethinking Chronic Pain - Intergenerational

In this three-session class, participants will learn how the brain processes pain and other physical symptoms, why the nervous system can become sensitized, and how stress, fear, and attention can unintentionally reinforce symptom patterns. We will explore common conditions associated with neuroplastic mechanisms, including chronic back pain, migraines, IBS, fibromyalgia, fatigue, and tinnitus.

Participants will also be introduced to practical strategies that help retrain the brain and calm the nervous system, including shifts in how symptoms are understood, attention practices, and approaches that help restore a sense of safety in the body.

This class is designed for anyone living with persistent symptoms, as well as those interested in the emerging science of brain-based pain and symptom recovery. No prior knowledge is required.

Ages 16 + are welcome to attend with an adult. Both participants must register and pay.
