The sensitivity to our physical pains differs from person to person. Moreover, it can become an aggravated reaction, depending on how we tend to see or accept certain physical conditions. It is observed that some individuals start conditioning their minds with a greater pain perspective & higher sensitivity to the existing pain. But it is extremely important to know that our minds have great healing power! People who are indulged in a deeper level of mindfulness, have an amazing mental capacity to deal with pain. It can control how you react to your health status & help reclaim the body when living with pain.
• Although pain can be unavoidable at times, how we relate to the pain or suffering is optional. This is what mindfulness helps you realize, accept & practice.
• Mindfulness helps develop nonreactive awareness of the present moment experience and disengage with the pain. This state of mind can be enhanced with mental training to break the confined thought process embodied with pain and the side-effects.
• Pain is a multi-dimensional experience; mindfulness offers you a practical and effective solution to observe your physical, emotional & cognitive reactions and make a wise decision that can alleviate your pain and distress. Remember your mind has the power to have control over your reactions to the sensation of pain. Your choices impact your physical state & nervous system activity directly.
• Since, consistent pain can potentially drain mental energies & induce depression & anxiety. Mindfulness can help you keep yourself recharged with positive energies & organically helps lower the pain sensitivity while reducing the intensity of pain.
• Practising mindfulness shows an evident result in better physical functioning, improved focus on the right thoughts, reduce psychological distress, and calms one down.
