I learned how to meditate years ago as a necessity to keep doing my job.  I use this form of meditation to get through the pain in those peak moments. Learning meditation, can help you with the pain of stress and you can apply it to sever pain like back pain, (which after three back surgeries I know this pain) arthritis, MS and others. It also known to have great benefits for people with dementia.
