did anyone see twinstitute last night about meditation for pain relief? They only showed people stationery meditating. What if the pain kicks in while walking round the supermarket? Can you meditate on the move or do I sit down in the bread aisle?

My response was "Surely you CAN'T mediatate on the move? " You have to use part of your brain for movement control. But this says you can - I suppose it depends what else you have to do in the supermarket!

thanks, maybe I won't have to sit in the bread aisle after all.

Hi Sorry I missed the programme, meant to watch it....

Yes, you can mediate while moving, I trained to do it in LA LA land & London under quite spiritual & mediative folks.... If it helps back pain is another matter, I imagine you would have to be pretty practice to take your mind of your pain & focus on your breath & walk..... Can google 'walking meditation ' 👣..... Not sure if there is one for shopping meditation, but knows lots of folks that think it is therapeutic 😁ML
