KICK OUT YOUR PAIN BY MEDITATION

KICK OUT YOUR PAIN BY MEDITATION

MEDITATION

The study evaluated the effect of meditation on pain intensity and unpleasantness reported by subjects and changes in brain activation patterns were measured by functional MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Heat applied by a thermal simulator assessed the pain response. A comparative analysis reported a 40% reduction in pain intensity and a 57% reduction in unpleasantness associated with pain (measured by heat stimulus) after meditation training.

At the same time, scans demonstrated that meditation increased brain activity in the areas responsible for experiencing awareness of pain (primarily anterior cingulate cortex). The more these areas were activated by meditation, the more was the pain relief felt.

The other mechanism by which meditation leads to a lesser feeling of pain is by producing endorphins, which are natural pain relievers in the body. Meditation has also been shown to decrease the levels of stress hormones (e.g. cortisol and adrenaline), which otherwise increase anxiety during stressful stimuli like pain. Further, meditation also leads to increase in hormones like melatonin and DHEA, which help boost the immune system and promote a sense of calmness even during pain.

Conclusively, there is a definite, objective evidence of meditation leading to reduction in pain perception, and reducing the emotional impact of pain thus making it easier to bear. Now that gives you enough reason to tread the meditative path. And, just in case it inspires you to walk the road, Shri Ashutosh Maharaj Ji, the Founder and Head of Divya Jyoti Jagrati Santhan, and the Perfect Master of the present times, is disseminating the eternal technique of true meditation in the form of 'Brahm Gyan'. Make best use of the opportunity and reap innumerable benefits by practicing the 'Brahm Gyan' meditation technique!
