Preparation for session 4
This content is designed for the participants of the GGC Pain Management Programme.
This is preparation for session 4. Before your group session next week, please find below a list of activities we would like you to do. It is important that you do these activities before the group session as we will be discussing them and there will not be an opportunity to hear the videos or do the worksheets during the session.
Please refer to your workbook for the following worksheets:
- Thinking - Tasks 1-3 only
- Mindfulness – Task 1 (use a blank piece of paper if you wish to continue recording what you notice)
There is an accessibility view available for the manual. Select the more options menu (shown as 3 dots) at the top right and choose accessibility view.
Mindfulness
Mindful breathing at least 3 times this week.
The guided practices are available on the Glasgow PMP practices page.
Stretches
There are some stretches you can try at home in your own time: stretches manual
· Only move as far as is comfortable
· Start small and build up gradually
· Try the stretches in both sitting and lying- sometimes one position is more comfortable than another
· If you cannot get on and off the floor they can be performed on your sofa or bed
