S2E6 - Pedulation Meditation for Pain

Pendulation meditation is a mindfulness practice that can be helpful for managing physical pain. It involves focusing on the sensations of pain in a non-judgmental way and alternating between the sensations of pain and other areas of the body that are free from pain. This can help to reduce the intensity of the pain and promote a sense of calm and relaxation. As we “pendulate” between places of comfort and pain, we create a relationship with present space and time that can help you come back to a place of feeling enough safety to regulate the body in the midst of pain.

Remember that this meditation is a practice, and it may take time and patience to experience relief from pain. Be kind and patient with yourself, and trust that with practice, you can learn to manage pain more effectively.
