Meditation Videos
Meditation incorporates an element of mindfulness. Being mindful is being aware of the present moment, escaping our tendency to hyper-focus on the past or the future.
Meditation is being mindful of your inner processes (e.g., your thoughts, your feelings). You bring your attention to the present moment in your mind and let go of any thoughts without judgement.
This practice has been found to help some people with chronic pain. Research has shown that meditation uses neural pathways that makes the brain less sensitive to pain and increases the use of pain-reducing neurotransmitters.
Sit or lay in a comfortable position when meditating.
