We're talking mindfulness today because I've actually got some controversial opinions about the practice! We're going over what mindfulness is and what it's not (meditation, looking at you), how it's commonly misunderstood and therefore incorrectly applied and how that can harm both you and the therapists you might be working with! There's a lot to unpack so settle in and I hope y'all enjoy the video!
