Thinking beyond a cure for chronic pain: Kara Stanley and Simon Paradis

For many living with chronic pain, the goal has often been to
find an elusive "cure". But what if our understanding of pain
itself needs rethinking? In 2008, Simon Paradis fell off a
scaffold, causing severe injuries to his brain and spinal cord.
Despite making a strong recovery, he lives with chronic pain
every day. As a team, he and his wife, Kara Stanley, explored a
variety of pain management tactics, including mindfulness and
movement. They discuss their research journey and their new book
The Pain Project: A Couple's Story of Confronting Chronic Pain.
