What Ultra-Marathoner Rich Roll Learned From His Chronic Pain
About this episode
You may feel pain in the body, but it really begins in the brain. To explain, Dr. Sanjay Gupta sits down at 92nd Street Y in New York to talk about his new book “It Doesn’t Have to Hurt” with his friend and ultra-marathoner Rich Roll. They also discuss how our brains can create pain proactively and protectively. Plus, how memories might have something to do with your chronic pain – and how to move through, with, and past those painful reminders.
Our show was produced by Jennifer Lai, with assistance from Sofia Sanchez.
