Episode description

I sat down with psychologist, author, and professor Dr. Michelle Maidenberg. We discussed how mindfulness can become more than just a concept, but a way of living.  Whether we struggle from anxiety or are looking to manage unique emotional moments, Michelle shares her wisdom in how to cultivate mindfulness in our daily life to react from our values instead of our emotions.

This episode dives into: 

  • What mindfulness is?
  • Being in the present moment.
  • Understanding the difference between mindfulness, meditation, and other practices.
  • Mindfulness is a state of being and the science behind it. 
  • The concept of “being” versus “doing.”
  • Thoughts versus behavior.
  • “Observing” mind versus “thinking” mind.
  • Loving-kindness for yourself and others.
  • How to get started practicing mindfulness.
