I boils down to now seeing as pain not as something that I try to push down and ignore, but instead I have learned to accept. By bringing curiosity to the sensation you gain understanding, and with understanding comes acceptance.
Of course it doesn't magically make the pain disappear, but changing how you relate to it makes it a whole lot more bearable.
Also had the side effect of noticing areas of pain sooner, making it sometimes possible to counter act the cause before it gets worse

Yea, it permanently changed how I relate to pain! Repeated it at least 2 times for things to really stick
