The Pain Management Workbook Description
Change your brain, change your pain with this powerful, evidence-based workbook.
If you’re struggling with chronic pain, you’re not alone: more than one hundred million Americans currently live with chronic pain. Yet, despite its prevalence, chronic pain is not well understood. Fortunately, research has emerged showing the effectiveness of a treatment model for pain management grounded in biology, psychology, and social functioning.
In this groundbreaking workbook, you’ll find a comprehensive outline of this effective biopsychosocial approach, as well as scientifically supported interventions rooted in cognitive- behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and neuroscience to help you take control of your pain—and your life! You’ll learn strategies for creating a pain plan for home and work, reducing reliance on medications, and breaking the pain cycle. Also included are tips for improving sleep, nutrition for pain, methods for resuming valued activities, and more.
If you’re ready to take your life back from pain, this workbook has everything you need to get started.

This workbook is just what so many people living with chronic pain need. It’s easy to follow, a good size book and filled with amazing information and questions and tasks to do. I’m enjoying the new journey. A book for anyone dealing with chronic pain.

Got this book as part of my own therapy journey working with chronic pain, heart issues, and childhood trauma with effects on my health.
It’s very conversational, like the author is speaking to you. It feels mostly comfortable, but can be a bit cheesy sometimes.
The good: Great insight from CBT to understand pain, pain volume, and seeing where the pain comes from and how it affects consciousness and thought. Some really innovative ways to imagine/externalize your pain to understand it. From this book I was able to sort of identify my pain as a spirit animal, who needs attention, can tell me when something is wrong, but i can love and care for. This has been very helpful in my pain journey.
The bad: Not really much bad in it. If you don’t like writing a lot, you may not enjoy it so much. Sometimes it also leans into a theme of how pain leads people to stay at home and do nothing. That doesn’t apply to me personally, much, but I can see how that could be helpful for others. Some of the suggestions are pretty obvious though. Overall not bad though.
The ugly: Sometimes the author falls into the trap of “Write down your symptoms/feelings/throughts about this thing. Here are some examples. Now what are yours?” And the examples are already there. For a thoughtful person, it’s a bit patronizing, but it’s overall well intentioned and has a lot of research supporting it, and honestly this kind of thing might actually be really helpful for some.

This is basically a workbook for helping to manage chronic pain. The information included is very good and I can see how working through the activities would be helpful for many people. As someone who’s lived with chronic pain for thirty years, there was very little I don’t already do or haven’t already tried. Still, it’s a good reminder of things to keep in mind on a daily basis and would definitely be helpful for someone just beginning to deal with a chronic illness.

Rachel Zoffness is a brilliant pain psychologist, author and speaker. Her depth of understanding and extensive work and knowledge into the “biopsychosocial” allows the reader (chronic pain sufferer) to understand that pain is a construct of the mind, and that you can overcome it. The mind/body/surroundings are always connected, 100% of the time.
This is a must read/do CBT book, unlike any that has come before it.

My husband has been suffering with some sort pain for most of our marriage. He had bought himself the book on “The Power of Your Subconscious Mind,” and has really enjoyed reading it. After doing some research, I found this book and decided to get it for him. He told me he can relate to the book and his enjoyed reading, and getting to understand his pain and thoughts a little better.

We all have pain so we have to learn how to live with it. I have been going through this with a small group and it has been really helpful. I have learned so much and now have the tools to change the way I think about my pain. It is an easy read as well!

This book might be helpful for anyone who is depressed, and hasn’t done much reading about pain management, but for me it was not helpful. I find I am really in too much pain, to put most of the suggestions into action. The suggestions regarding nutrition were just too general. If your pain is neurological I don’t think this book will help you.

I suddenly developed peripheral neuropathy of the lower extremities (burning, tingling, electrified pain), as well as autonomic neuropathy of the digestive and urinary organ systems. This workbook carefully explains a number of practical techniques used in the pain management profession for lessening your pain experience. I supplemented the book with articles written for nonprofessionals on the neurobiology of anxiety, anger, fear, stress and related emotions. I also read on Pain Reprocessing Therapy, a new technique being developed. The combination of the workbook and supplemental studies has given me many techniques for managing my pain experiences. One quick example. When my feet burn badly, I know that certain nerve fibers that send burning type signals to my spinal column and to the brain are being activated. If I gently rub my feet, different nerve fibers send signals that counteract the burning sensation, and I experience a gentle soothing type of feeling. There are many techniques for minimizing your pain experience that this wonderful workbook describes. More generally I have found it to be very helpful as a guide to living a better, healthier life. It has helped me manage stress, anxiety, fear, anger much better.

Here’s my chronic pain story that’s been going on for three years. Last month after over a year of finally be referred to pain management clinic my doctor recommended Dr. Z, ONLY after I mentioned that “staying in the moment” has helped me. (I think I first learned from Kung Fu Panda! “Yesterday’s history, tomorrow’s a mystery and today is a gift and that’s why they call it the present!“)
Up to this point they’ve only given me Cymbalta, which I believe has help some but maybe mainly as a placebo and opioids which I believe have been of little benefit.
Dr. Z is the first and only Dr. that told me that PAIN DOES NOT ALWAYS INDICATE DANGER! This workbook helps you understand that Pain lives both in the brain and the body 100% of the time and that you can help reduce the pain by telling yourself that your brain is being oversensitive and although trying to do the right thing your neural circuits are making your issues worse. It’s such a shame that the medical industry does not understand which Dr. Z explains so well that Western medicine believes that healing pain is all biological When is in fact biological psychological and sociological equally. The workbook is great and is helping me break the cycle by telling myself: thank you brain for the pain warning, but I’ve got this as there’s no structural damage to my prostate although it may be enlarged and have some calcification that is only normal for my age so let’s go live again!
As Dr Z Tells us so brilliantly “there’s a real, biological connection between the thoughts in your head and the sensations in your body. Pain voice generates anxious, catastrophic, negative thoughts that amplify pain and keep you feeling low… Take your power back!” It’s such a shame, as Dr. Z says that she is the last train stop when she should be the first! I was once a fan of Big Pharma but realized with the strong hold they have over pain management doctors.
Anyways I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Best of luck to all of you out there as I do know firsthand what you are going through and please know there is help with this life-changing workbook. Dr. Z if you’re reading this please know that you given me my life back and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
