Hello Everyone!
I am new to the forum, but keep hearing about it from my clients. I thought I'd better get my act together and finally join. I had the "diagnoses" of vulvodynia and interstitial cystitis, but dealt with them both as mind-body-syndromes with great success. I was so thrilled to have learned about TMS and mind-body healing in general! What a relief. I ended up getting really into it and merged it into my professional life as a "life" coach. (I know, I know, what a cheesy title.) Now I am a mind-body health coach, and I work with clients who want to try a mind-body approach but want some guidance/help structuring it. I remember feeling frustrated with Sarno's books because he didn't give a lot of tools. I used Dr. Schecter's workbook myself, and then a lot of other tools I researched. One of the things I hope to do as a coach is help others put the mind-body concept into action, and to let people know that pelvic pain issues can be mind-body syndromes, too.
Anyway, sorry for the long post, but I wanted to let you all know that you're welcome to come visit my blog, where I do a lot of writing and have lots of resources you might enjoy or find helpful. This week, I'm offering a free telecourse on mind-body tools Thursday evening, so if you want to join in, you are welcome. It will be recorded, so you can register to get a recording if you can't make the live class.
Now that I'm a member of the forum, I'll pop in and let you know about free things like this so you can take advantage of them. I have done a little collaboration with Dr. Schubiner, so on my blog site you can listen to an interview we did together, for example.
The blog site is: http://vulvodyniacoach.wordpress.com.
Hope it's okay to post a link - I saw that Monte did, so I'm assuming it's okay. Also, feel free to email me anytime if you have any questions.
Great to be here, finally!
Abigail

I just learned that I didn't read Monte's post carefully enough - he posted an email only. So, really sorry. I've probably disobeyed the rules already! Sheesh. This comes from my typical leap before I look way of living! 
Love that sarcasm, though! |

I just wanted to let folks know that Abigail's work has been a tremendous help to me. She has a very positive and practical way of applying mind-body healing strategies that can really benefit those who are in a "stuck" cycle, like myself. I would encourage anyone who is continuing to struggle with TMS to visit her blog and watch the telecourse.
Hope all is well-
