Pain is not the problem - it is information.In Beyond the Pain to Life As You Wish, physician, coach, and educator Dr. Amelia Bueche offers a compassionate, practical framework for understanding pain not as something to eliminate, but as a guide toward wholeness, clarity, and connection.
Blending osteopathic philosophy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), lived clinical experience, and the enduring wisdom of The Princess Bride, this book introduces The Pain Detective Process - a seven-part journey that helps readers:
-
Perceive pain clearly rather than fear it
-
Process what has been carried, often silently
-
Find Peace without bypassing truth
-
Reclaim Power without domination or control
-
Receive Prosperity as connection, not accumulation
-
Engage Puzzle through creativity and pattern-recognition
-
Embrace Possibility through compassion and love
​
Through story, reflection, and real-world application, Dr. Bueche shows how pain appears across the physical, emotional, relational, professional, and spiritual dimensions of life - and how Self-energy can lead us through pain rather than around it.
