Abstract
Chronic musculoskeletal pain is the leading cause of disability globally, yet for the majority of people who experience chronic pain, it does not seriously disable them or interfere with their life. People who experience severe pain yet low disability display a resilient course of pain. Yoga has been shown to decrease disability among people with pain, but it is not known how. Because even the most basic yoga practices possess many of the components thought to be important in fostering resilience, yoga is a promising means of improving resilience and clinical outcomes for people with chronic pain. A validated conceptual model of how the experience of chronic pain is affected by yoga is needed to guide a future research agenda and identify potential targets for chronic pain intervention. Ultimately, an explanatory model could guide the optimization of yoga and other non pharmacological therapies for the treatment of chronic pain. I present a testable model. (C) 2018 Elsevier Inc.
