Just my favorite line from from my favorite character in my favorite movie. I've adopted it as my mantra.
The last page of the Feb/March issue of Pain-Free Living magazine has a brief bio of Karen Duffy who authored the book 'Backbone: Living with Chronic Pain Without Turning into One".
I scanned it in for you: https://imgur.com/7h5ygb6
The whole magazine is pretty good also, and worth looking for at your local grocer, library or where ever fine magazines are sold.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Pain - More constructive ways to react to pain pg 28
Finding Your Peace - Countering the effects of pain on your well-being pg 42
Nice, thanks :)
