The use of Meditation for healing is not new. Meditative techniques are the product of diverse cultures and peoples around the world. It has been rooted in the traditions of the world's great religions

It is all about achieving that required mental state to create an internal experience. "The conventional wisdom has been that meditation relieves pain not by diminishing sensation but by helping people consciously control their perception of pain", meditation changes the nature of pain or stress before it's perceived by the brain, thus allowing people to better handle the stress.
