A journal for those who want to forget their chronic pain and live their life.

Life with chronic pain can be unpredictable! One day you're in misery, the next you feel better, maybe you see a glimmer of hope... and then, boom, you're crashing down again. You think you know what's causing your pain, but maybe you don't. Dr. Andrea Furlan, award-winning pain specialist and internationally respected author of 8 Steps to Conquer Chronic Pain: A Doctor's Guide to Lifelong Relief, knows from extensive experience that people need to fully understand their individual pain to learn what is at the root of their suffering and how to overcome it. And she knows that journaling can be a very effective tool in your pain management journey.

Ninety days of guided writing prompts will help you to understand your pain and inspire you on your journey of self-discovery and healing:

• Learn about the mind-body connection and how one influences the other.
• Understand what has happened and how pain has changed you as a person.
• Rediscover your strengths and potential.
• Document your ongoing progress and celebrate each victory.
• Recognize pain triggers, patterns and solutions.
• Track soothing and calming experiences.
• Prepare lists of helpful resources in case of a future pain flare.

Don't let chronic pain make your life be smaller than it has to be. Through journaling, with Dr. Furlan guiding the way, you can discover ways to forget your pain and live a fulfilling and happy life.
