Type: article
Abstract: Pain and stress are deeply interconnected physiological and psychological experiences.Chronic pain often intensifies stress responses and persistent stress can increase sensitivity to pain through intricate neurological and hormonal mechanisms.Among the various nonpharmacological interventions, meditation techniques have gained recognition for their effectiveness in managing stress and altering pain perception.One such technique, Sahaja Yoga meditation, has shown promise as a natural and holistic approach to stress management and pain relief.This article explores the evidence supporting Sahaja Yoga as a stress management tool for pain relief and its potential implication for patient care in Intensive Care Units.
