This meditation guides the listener in somatic tracking to decrease pain. Somatic tracking is a mindfulness exercise that is used to change the neural circuits in the brain to cure chronic pain or symptoms. Common conditions that benefit from this exercise are back pain, neck pain, migraines, headaches, joint pain, jaw pain, TMD, tinnitus, anxiety, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome and other difficult sensations in the body. If this meditation is done repeatedly when symptoms flare it can change the neural circuits in the brain, curing chronic pain.

Transcript

Just get comfortable,

Either seated or lying down,

Closing your eyes and sinking into the surface beneath you.

Bringing your attention to the breath,

The front of your body,

Sink into the back of your body.

Allow the back of your body to sink into the surface beneath you.

So that you're not holding any tension.

Slowing down your breath,

Slowing down your mind.

I want you just to check in with any sensations in your body.

Noticing any painful sensations,

Noticing how you would describe this pain.

Is it one side or both?

What words would you use to describe your pain right now?

Noticing any sensations without judgment.

Just watch it,

Almost like you're watching the clouds in the sky.

Observing your sensations without judgment,

Watching from a detached,

Safe place.

Noticing if they change at all.

Notice your sensations without fear.

You are healthy,

You are strong.

Trying to send the breath to any painful sensations and just observing what happens when you do this.

Just watching the pain,

Watching the sensations.

You're not ignoring it or vigilant about it.

You're halfway in between observing and accepting.

Now getting curious about these sensations,

Knowing they are not dangerous,

Knowing they are safe.

Noticing when you calm your nervous system,

You are calming your pain.

Breathe in a sense of kindness to yourself.

You are strong and resilient.

You have been through so much,

You are healthy,

You can overcome to the sensations.

Noticing if they have calmed or softened at all.

Noticing that as you calm your nervous system,

You are calming your sensations.

Meditating yourself and taking this time out to calm your nervous system.

Repeated practice.

You can change your brain and change your pain.

If you feel comfortable,

You can add some movement.

Just moving your body back and forth,

Moving with a sense of freedom.

Just approaching your movement like you did your sensations.

Noticing anything with curiosity.

Moving with a sense of ease.

Coming back to the breath,

Breathing in a sense of hope and breathing out fear.

Breathing in gratitude and breathing out worry.

Back into the space around you with a renewed sense of hope.

Namaste.
