“Pain, Stress and Mindfulness Meditation”
By: Theodore Tsaousidis
There are many kinds of pain from physical to emotional (anxiety, depression and so on). This talk will investigate the role of stress in perpetuating and even increasing this suffering. It will show how stress works in our minds and bodies in creating illness and preventing healing. Whether pain is acute or chronic, the practice of Mindfulness Meditation has been proven to be extremely beneficial in reducing and even eliminating distress. Basic Mindfulness techniques will be shared.
