Have you ever tried to heal yourself from body pain? If so, you know how difficult it is. I suffer from chronic sacral pain, and I can tell you it isn’t easy. Research suggests that mindfulness meditation can help reduce pain intensity and unpleasantness by actually changing the structure of our brain. And it doesn’t have to be complicated.

Can We Change Negative Habits
It’s 5PM. You're finally finished with a long, difficult day at work.

It's almost an overwhelming feeling of, “I can’t wait!” Are you addicted? Some might say yes, but let’s also look at it as a Habit.
