My husband is currently tapering my medication for my back (I abuse it and end up having to get more on the street, so it is either taper or get out) and last night he had me breathe and his method is to breathe out the “bad” and breathe in the “good”. I was a skeptic, but I tried it anyways and it actually worked, my back had been killing me all evening and I actually had relief and it stayed relieved for the next 2 hours when I went to bed, it worked where the pills, heating pad, massage, etc didn’t!

Good question Michael. I’ve never faced migraines myself, so the answer may have to be found by you. And, if you do find a solution, please let us all know, as that kind of info is priceless.

That’s wonderful advice but how do you use your mind to block out pain when its your brain that hurts? I was electrocuted 4 yrs ago & have suffered from chronic headaches ever since… I have tried meditation but more often than not the pain is so intense I can’t even begin to think of anything else… The everyday headaches this works with to some degree but the full blown migraines I can’t even begin to concentrate

Very impressive, I may try this tomorrow. I’m currently healing from multiple fractures in my pelvis and knee surgery. I’m in a lot of pain and take Vicidin’s for relief. I’m not addicted but would much rather not subject my body to drugs.
