RE: Arm-Worn Electrical Device Could Treat Migraine as Effectively as Medication
I think meditation would probably not help during the actual attack because the pain makes it hard to focus (unless you are a master meditator) but I do think in the early stages it might help and regular meditation might help to prevent it because there is a definite stress relationship. Thanks for the reminder - next time I feel one coming on I will try the meditation.
I understand why one would think this way, but actually, the more intense the pain the easier the meditation becomes.
Meditation is all about focusing on one thing, and one thing alone. This means that it is easier to focus on the pain if it is powerful enough to distract you from everything else.
I don't think it would be easy for a beginner, but for someone who has experience with meditation, it would certainly be easier than a subtle pain that does no service to distracting one from their thoughts.
Interesting. I think for someone like me it is still not something I would be able to do but maybe with time.
