This is interesting. I've been intrigued by the effectiveness of CBT
in fixing a number of things, including helping considerably with
chronic pain management.
I was doing some research into this and saw references to 'Mindfulness-
based Cognitive Therapy' (MBCT) that appears to be doing better than
CBT. This takes ideas from CBT, ACT and other similar ideas with
'mindfulness', an idea from Buddhism.
There's an interesting article in wikipaedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mindfulness-based_Cognitive_Therapy
There is also an interesting lecture by Dr Lance McCracken from
University of Bath a specialist in chronic pain:

I was wondering if there were any other good sources on information on
this.
