Start your week with a #MindulMonday! Find your breath. Simply notice if it is long or short. Fast or slow. Tight. Full. Constricted. Try out our exercise, "Being in Charge of the Moment." thecomfortability.com/blogs/guided-e… Rachael Coakley, PhD #ItDoesntHaveToHurt #Mindfulness #Mindful

Great to see Emma France, Dr Isabelle UNY, Prof Liz Forbat 🇪🇺, Jane Noyes, Line Caes, Abbie Jordan, @RuthTurley yesterday during our monthly meeting and very excited to see our progress! It's been a fantastic group effort and amazing team to work with NIH Pain Research #metaethnography

It was great to see everyone engaged in promoting more public involvement in research in today's meeting to discuss Patient and Public Involvement (PPI). PPI is essential to make the research more relevant and improve communication with the wider public. #INVOLVE

We have been working through the lockdown and have made some great progress on identifying research that will help to answer our questions! Keep an eye out for more news soon. Stay safe everyone! #ChampionProject #chronicpainresearch

We are pleased to welcome Natalie Barnes to our CHAMPION team! She will be joining us during her MRes placement StirlingMRes

It was lovely to meet our members earlier this month to discuss our findings. Patient and public involvement is essential to ensure research is relevant, fits your needs and is being conducted as effectively as possible. Thank you for getting involved!

It was amazing to meet our members last week during our first "Advisory Group meeting"! Thank you everyone for your suggestions and comments and for helping us to make the best out of the CHAMPION Project.
