If you are looking for a stress-busting way to incorporate relaxation and healing into your thyroid treatment approach, consider incorporating meditation.
You don't have to become a guru, or sit in the lotus position for hours a day, to enjoy the benefits of meditation. To help thyroid patients enjoy the health benefits and healing power of meditation, Demo DiMartile of One Light One Spirit has created the Thyroid Meditation, an audio meditation with music. The Thyroid Meditation is a guided meditation, designed as an empowerment tool for thyroid patients, to help you get in touch with and communicate with your body, align your body/mind/spirit, and aid in lowering your stress responses.
Here's a six-minute sample from the Thyroid Meditation to get you started.
