Vidyamala Burch: 我将引导大家学习如何运用正念来减轻慢性疼痛。我会讲解如何通过全身呼吸来放松身体,释放紧张和压力,从而调节情绪,帮助我们更加平和地应对疼痛。这不仅仅是简单的鼻腔呼吸,而是要运用全身的呼吸,这是一种非常强大的方法。我们会学习如何将柔软的、具象的意识带到呼吸的五个关键区域——臀部、腹部、背部、口腔后部和大脑——我称之为‘呼吸的五个海湾’。通过练习,我们可以将疼痛转化为一种流畅、可控的体验。 在练习中,我们会关注身体的四个‘隔膜’:颅膈、咽膈、胸膈和骨盆膈。通过有意识地放松这些区域的肌肉,我们可以促进更深层次的呼吸,从而放松身体,缓解疼痛。全身呼吸就像是对内脏器官进行按摩,可以放松肌肉,例如腰大肌。背部也参与到呼吸中,这对于平静身心非常有益。 此外,学习顺应地心引力,而不是对抗它,可以帮助我们减轻疼痛和疲劳。当我们感到疼痛时,我们往往会不自觉地试图离开身体,这实际上是在对抗地心引力,这会非常疲惫。学习放松臀部,让骨盆底肌肉放松,可以帮助我们更好地顺应地心引力。 ‘五个B’的呼吸法(臀部、腹部、背部、口腔后部和大脑)可以帮助我们记住并练习全身呼吸。当感到困惑时,可以尝试呼气,让吸气自然发生。许多人在遇到困难时会抑制呼气,而呼气可以帮助我们放松。 通过引导的‘五个B’的身体扫描练习,我们可以将意识带到身体的不同部位,放松紧张,体验全身呼吸的益处。这是一种将意识像水一样从头部流淌到脚趾的练习,关注身体的每一个部位,感受温度、感觉和与椅子的接触,将所有的一切都纳入当下。通过这种练习,我们可以学习如何放松臀部、腹部、背部、口腔后部和大脑,从而放松身心,缓解疼痛。 Sean Fargo: 在本期节目中,我们将继续与Vidyamala Burch探讨正念如何缓解慢性疼痛。她将引导我们进行一次关于呼吸和身体觉察的练习,帮助我们放松紧张,释放压力,并通过全身呼吸来调节情绪,使我们更加平和、专注。

Shownotes Transcript

In part two of our conversation with Vidyamala Burch, we dive into practical applications of mindfulness for pain and stress. She explains how habitual breath holding and tension reinforce pain, and introduces the concept of whole-body breathing as a way to unwind secondary suffering.

Vidyamala teaches how to bring soft, embodied awareness to five key areas of the breath—the buttocks, belly, back, back of the mouth, and brain—which she refers to as the “5 Bays of the Breath.”

This episode includes a guided body-based practice exploring these areas and encouraging fluid, receptive awareness to counteract pain and reactivity.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✔ How to use mindful breathing to release tension and reduce reactivity

✔ The connection between resistance, breath holding, and pain

✔ An introduction to the 5 Bays of the Breath and how to apply them

✔ A guided body-based mindfulness practice for pain relief and grounding

This episode is ideal for mindfulness teachers, health professionals, and anyone looking to deepen their understanding of how breath and awareness can transform pain into fluid, manageable experience.
