S2E7 - From Painful to Mindful

A natural human reaction is to avoid that which is unpleasant, especially anything painful. Like so much of mindfulness practice, the most immediate way in which we can find any sort of freedom is by moving toward it. Beware, though, because jumping into feeling pain without first establishing a foundation could alter your relationship to what you’re feeling but not for the better. This meditation invites you to gently lean into pain so that you can eventually establish a new relationship to it.• Guided by Dawn Mauricio• Music by Drew Bathory• This meditation is part of the meditation course “50 Meditations to Practice Awareness, Acceptance, and Peace”• Enjoyed this meditation?
