Yoga For Pain Relief

Dr. Kelly McGonigal is a yoga teacher as well as being a health scientist and lecturer at the Stanford University Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education (CCARE).

She was also a major contributor to the Sounds True production of The Compassionate Brain hosted by Dr. Rick Hanson. Her book, The Willpower Instinct: How Self-Control Works, Why It Matters, and What You Can Do To Get More of It has talked about in other posts.

This video is about her other book, Yoga for Pain Relief: Simple Practices to Calm Your Mind and Heal Your Chronic Pain, which she reviewed at Google in 2010.

The best practices for dealing with pain include breathing, meditation and relaxation.

Acute pan is useful because it signals something wrong in the body. It has the role of protecting your body.

Chronic pain is not useful. It is over protective of the body and causes psychological stress. The best treatment for chronic pain is stress management!

Now you can manager your pain with my Guided Meditation For Relieving Stress recording. This recording incorporates all of the best practices recommended by Dr. McGonigal in her book: breathing, relaxation and meditation.

If you like yoga, you’ll love Guided Meditation for Relieving Stress.
