Building Resilience with Mindfulness-Based Biofeedback
Pain can deeply affect your child’s life, disrupting everything from their ability to concentrate to how their body functions day-to-day. Unfortunately, most pain treatments either focus on physical symptoms or try to address underlying causes, often missing the vital connection between the two. Mindfulness-based biofeedback is a powerful approach that bridges this gap, helping your child regain control over their pain and improve their quality of life. This innovative method combines two proven strategies: 1. Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MBCBT): This evidence-based approach helps your child develop healthier ways to think about and respond to their pain, fostering resilience and emotional balance. 2. Biofeedback Training: Using specialized tools, biofeedback teaches your child how to become aware of and influence physical processes, like breathing or heart rate, that are typically involuntary. Together, these methods address both the biological and emotional drivers of pain, promoting a stronger mind-body connection and empowering your child to manage their pain more effectively. Join this webinar to learn how mindfulness-based biofeedback works, the science behind it, and how it can help your child build resilience and take back control of their pain.
