The meditation is shown to reduce the emotional impact of pain. The expert meditators demonstrated faster “neural habituation (repeated exposure leading to decreased response)” to pain and its anticipation than novice meditators. “Meditation trains the brain to be more present-focused and spend less time anticipating future negative events, thus reducing recurrence of depression which makes chronic pain considerably worse,”
There are other mechanisms by which meditation leads to a lesser feeling of pain is by producing endorphins, which are natural pain relievers in the body. Meditation has also been shown to decrease levels of stress hormones (e.g. cortisol and adrenaline), which otherwise increase anxiety during stressful stimuli like pain. Further, meditation also leads to increase in hormones like melatonin and DHEA, which help boost the immune system and promote a sense of calmness even during pain.
