What if you were more present in your life—at work, at home, with the people and projects that mean the most to you? What if you spent less time ruminating about the past and worrying about the future? Wouldn’t that be nice? I think mindfulness is at its peak popularity right now because most of us are so mindless most of the time—doom scrolling, binge watching, and filled with fear, all while missing out on the lives we’ve worked so hard to build. Or maybe that’s just me. My guest this week is a psychologist who has blended cognitive behavioral therapy with mindfulness to achieve remarkable results.

Listen and learn:

How anyone, even a busy new mom, can learn to add in mindful practices throughout the day
How Eastern wisdom can inform Western lives
The power of noticing but not welcoming the storm on the horizon
The role of mindfulness in managing depression
