It is said that one in five Americans—or 50 million
people—suffer from chronic pain. In response to these staggering
statistics, Jon Kabat-Zinn, the man who brought mindfulness into
mainstream medicine, is offering proven mindfulness meditation
practices to work gently and effectively with the most challenging
circumstances. Originally published in audio format as Mindfulness
Meditation for Pain Relief, the content is being adapted to a
soothing and beautiful, illustrated book with accompanying guided
meditation practices (offered digitally). The book opens with an
overview of seven fundamental attitudes we can develop and deploy
to cultivate mindfulness in relationship to chronic pain and its
incessant challenges, and continues with the following concepts:
--Mindfulness of breathing—how to “put out the welcome mat”
for whatever arises in one's experience --What to do about
pain—how to work with intense and unwanted sensations --Working
with thoughts and emotions—how to avoid identifying with your
experience of pain and instead see sensations and thoughts as
sensations and thoughts --Resting in awareness—a three-minute
mindful pause to restore balance, resilience, and self-compassion
--Mindfulness in everyday life—allowing the nitty-gritty of one's
daily life to be both the ultimate meditation teacher and the real
meditation practice
