📖 Introduction
Many people silently carry emotional pain, stress, resentment, anxiety, depression, and physical suffering for years without realizing how deeply the mind and body are connected.
When emotional wounds accumulate over time, they can eventually appear not only as mental exhaustion, but also through insomnia, digestive problems, chronic stress, fatigue, and physical pain.
This heartfelt meditation testimonial shares the story of Hye E. S., who struggled for years with severe menstrual pain, depression, insomnia, stress-related gastritis, and emotional suffering connected to painful childhood experiences and family wounds.
As her physical condition worsened, she gradually lost confidence in herself and even gave up her job because daily life became too overwhelming.
But through meditation and learning how to let go of resentment, emotional wounds, fear, loneliness, and deeply buried thoughts, she gradually experienced profound emotional healing, peace, confidence, and freedom from suffering.
This moving meditation testimonial beautifully shows how emotional healing and inner change can transform both the mind and the body.
💬 Meditation Testimonial: “Even Menstrual Pain Was a Sickness of the Mind — Once I Emptied My Mind, It Disappeared”
By Hye E. S. | Office Worker
Many painful things happened throughout my life, including my parents’ divorce.
As those hardships accumulated, my physical condition gradually worsened as well.
I constantly felt depressed.
I suffered from insomnia.
I developed stress-related gastritis.
Honestly, my body felt like a “walking hospital.”
But the most difficult problem of all was my severe menstrual pain.
About one week before my period even began, my stomach would already start hurting.
Then a few days later, the pain became so severe that even walking felt difficult.
People say menstruation comes only once a month.
But when you spend more than ten days out of every month suffering in pain, it feels as though exhaustion never truly ends.
🌧 I Even Quit My Job Because of Menstrual Pain
I tried everything.
I took herbal medicine.
I drank medicinal herbs supposedly beneficial for women’s health.
I followed all kinds of treatments.
But nothing truly solved the problem.
Painkillers were the only thing that barely helped.
But after taking them continuously, my stomach problems became even worse.
My physical strength was already weak to begin with, and enduring menstrual pain for ten days every month eventually became unbearable.
In the end, I even quit my job.
I began thinking:
“How can I possibly work properly with a body like this?”
Little by little, I lost confidence in myself.
Later, after hearing that my mother had also suffered from severe menstrual pain, I convinced myself:
“This must simply be hereditary.
There’s nothing I can do.”
🌱 “That Difficult Life Was Never Truly Yours”
Then one day, a close friend I had known since childhood visited me after about a year.
She looked dramatically brighter and happier than before.
She told me she had been practicing this meditation during the past year and that she had often thought about me.
One sentence she said remained deeply inside my heart:
“That painful life was never truly yours.”
Those words touched me deeply.
And almost immediately, I began practicing meditation myself.
As I reflected on my life, vague memories gradually surfaced.
I remembered feeling unwelcome by the adults around me from the moment I was born.
After my younger brother was born, I felt as though my mother’s love had been taken away from me.
Because of that, I carried resentment toward my mother.
I also felt hurt by the unequal treatment between sons and daughters.
At the same time, I carried the heavy emotional burden of being the eldest daughter in the family.
And underneath all of those emotions existed a strong desire to avoid and escape from painful feelings completely.
Through meditation, I gradually discarded all of those minds.
I discarded resentment toward my mother.
My painful feelings toward my brother.
Even my longing for my mother’s love.
🌿 As I Emptied My Mind, My Pain Disappeared
After about one week, I could genuinely feel my mind beginning to empty.
I was shocked that emotions which had tormented me for so many years could simply disappear.
Just knowing that such a method existed made me feel deeply grateful.
Then after about one month, I also began discarding the minds attached to my body itself.
And amazingly, my menstrual pain began decreasing dramatically.
Because the deeper emotional problems inside me were being resolved, true healing became possible.
For the first time, I truly understood the phrase:
“The mind is the root of illness.”
Now that I have completed the meditation process, my menstrual pain has disappeared to the point that it no longer interferes with my daily life or work at all.
My depression and insomnia have also completely healed.
And along with that, another belief disappeared too:
“I am physically weak and unhealthy.”
Before meditation, I constantly felt miserable and left behind because of my body.
Every time I wanted to begin something new, fear stopped me.
But now, I finally have confidence and certainty that:
“My body no longer controls or limits my future.”
✨ Both the Mind and Body Can Recover
If there are people suffering while repeatedly thinking:
“Could these painful feelings ever really disappear?”
I sincerely want to tell them this:
Those minds are not truly you.
They are false.
And when you discard them, both the mind and the body can recover their health.
