Perceptions of Pain
Meditation, Reflective Journaling & Art Process
Meditation, Reflective Journaling & Art Process
How I perceive pain (difficult heart, mind, or body states) determines how I view myself, others, and the world around me. As the famous saying goes, "Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional." It's common in Western medicine to block pain. Eastern practices ask me to relate to pain differently.
If you are interested in exploring these themes through meditation, reflective journaling or other art processes, specifically through the lenses of compassion, curiosity, and creativity, join me! Please note that this is a creative interpretation of classical mindfulness and compassion-based practices.
