Mindfulness Meditation actually is working
My therapist gave me Mindfulness Meditation for 5 minutes a day--and it is actually making me feel calmer the rest of the day. I have chronic physical pain and emotional distress. This makes me feel like I am more capable of doing what I want to do during the day, and helps me make better decisions. :)
That sounds awesome! How does mindfulnessmeditation work?
@Jadie: You can go to "Mindfulness Meditation" on youtube and listen to the video's instructions on how to meditate for 5-10 minutes :) Also you can read the book: "The Mindfulness Solution: Everyday Practices for Everyday Problems" by Ronald D. Siegel, PsyD. :) Enjoy :D
That's great to hear! Yes, I do believe that therapists are very helpful. Anyone who needs help should see a therapist.
And I never knew it would really work. Thank you for your thread. I will do it more often.
@cuddlecat, thank you for this great idea and the book also. I have been reading various books to try and help myself also. A good one I found is one by Don Colbert, M.D. , called Deadly Emotions.
