The technique of mindful meditation to overcome the pain Bashny.Net

Learning the technique of mindful meditation built on an interesting paradox. Mindfulness means "attention, awareness", but when a person is experiencing pain due to chronic illness or injury, it seems that suffering was taking up too much of his attention. What benefit can be from being more aware of these feelings?

In this book, imbued with beauty and compassion, of Vidyamala Burch and Danny Penman explain how the obra zoom some subtle processes in our minds are automatically included and only increase the level of discomfort from which we so want to get rid of. And precisely because these aggravating factors operate automatically and without your knowledge, requires concentration. If all this happens to you deep inside, you're left confused, alone with painful feelings. but if you manage to shed light and to direct attention to these issues, they will begin to dissolve.

Vidyamala and Danny don't just give a clear and modern scientific explanation of how this happens in the book you will find step by step instructions that will help you overcome the pain. The basis of this programme is a series of short meditations that help you to work the courage to approach the centre of intense feelings, to explore his friendly and inquisitive, to catch the moment when automatic responses will begin to taint your consciousness. They clearly show which activities help and which harm you and how to "persuade" their minds are often sharp and unforgiving, to openness and compassion. Ironically, it is this process helps to dissolve a large part of the suffering that seemed inevitable.

I was lucky to know and Vidyamala, and Danny for many years. They write, starting from their own experience: they both know what it is to suffer from the pain that once seemed unbearable. Have Vidyamali it happened when she pulled the man out of the pool during training, and was aggravated by five years as a result of a car accident. Danny was in great pain after falling from a paraglider. In the book they describe their experience and how were in a hopeless seemed the trap. However, they found the path of liberation from suffering in the practice of mindful meditation. based on his experience of Vidyamala wrote the book Living Well with Pain and Illness* and founded the Breathworks organisation, which helps those who suffer from chronic illnesses and stress. her book, working with patients and training could a lot of people. In the accident, Danny discovered cognitive therapy on the basis of awareness (MindfulnessBased Cognitive Therapy, MBCT), and eloquently wrote about this approach in his book "Awareness. How to find harmony in this crazy world"*, which has helped a huge number of people and gained a lot of popularity.

The book you hold in your hands contains many inspiring stories about people losing the hope after illness, accident or injury.
