If you have ever cancelled plans because of chronic pain, you know how much it takes from you. It’s more than just “it hurts”—it also takes away time with loved ones, it takes away even a good night’s sleep, and it stops us from being able to do the things we need to do in this one, precious life.
Today’s sponsor Reveri is the product of 45 years of research, to give us relief from that, and allow us to reclaim our lives, in comfort and with a clear head.
In just 10 minutes, this Stanford-developed practice gives people a natural way to ease pain (here’s how).

They vary in size from millimeters to several centimeters, colors range in lightness/darkness, and they often have a “stuck-on” look with well-defined edges. The surface can be waxy or rough, may itch or get irritated, and can be mistaken for melanoma… But what does it mean?

When suffering from chronic pain, and all the disruption to one’s life that pain brings, it’s natural to want to leap onto anything offering relief.

But, there are a lot of false promises out there in the world, so how can we tell the difference?

If you’re a regular 10almonds reader, you’ll know that we like things to be backed up with plenty of evidence, and if they’re not, we won’t make the claim.

In few words: 77% of users report significantly less physical pain and lower stress after a single session. And, with frequent use, its effectiveness typically becomes higher—this is because of how it works.

So, how does it work? It works by guiding the brain into a focused and deeply relaxed state, which calms the over-firing nervous system and reduces the brain’s sensitivity to pain signals.

As you know, “neurons that fire together, wire together” (neuroplasticity and all that), which is why the brain can get increasingly better at dialling down the unwanted pain and associated stress.

Most* people feel relief within minutes and, with ongoing use, find fewer flare-ups and fewer days being wiped out. In other words, the relief we need.
