Pain management skills involve evidence-based psychological techniques of behavioral activation, mindfulness meditation, relaxation techniques, and cognitive restructuring. Indigenous healing practices related to pain involve land-based healing, reconnecting with community, spirituality, narrative sharing, journaling, and restoration of cultural practices (e.g., eating Native foods, ceremonies).
