Join us for a beginning exploration of what it’s like to work with the wandering mind. All of our minds wander! In fact, as humans, our minds wander about 47% of the time. We get lost in the past, the future, and in analysis of what’s happening in the present. Unfortunately, this mind-wandering, auto pilot state is associated with unhappiness. So our practice becomes re-tuning and returning to the present in a way that is gentle and compassionate, yet intentional. Join us for the Awareness of Breath practice to begin working with this wandering mind. Reach out to us at mindfulness@dbhutah.org with comments or questions. A service of Davis Behavioral Health.

This episode contains the STOP practice only. For the full episode and explanation, see episode 1 season 1. A service of Davis Behavioral Health.

Join us for a brief introduction to mindfulness and guidance in the STOP practice.
