A note about trauma and meditation: If you have experienced traumatic or overwhelming life events, certain meditation or relaxation practices can contribute to unmanageable effects and bodily sensations. Trauma survivors may have decided that they are not capable of meditation or that it’s “not right for them.” Fortunately, there are helpful ways to ensure that meditation instruction is trauma-informed, with an emphasis on grounding and on physical and emotional security.
