I took the MBCT mindfulness program and it really helped change my life. I am so grateful I completed it in person, weeks before the pandemic hit in late February 2020, and it helped keep me alive. I personally find in person cannot match doing it online. The only thing I would add is maybe we can all question "anxiety" and isn't it just fear? Is that real. I love especially how Elaine mentioned "this is not a peace pill" and with uncomfortable sensations "doesn't mean I have to like it".I also love how we called out in one of the sessions example RACING THOUGHTS!, YES! ha! like celebrating it, takes the power away from it, though not force it. -Another idea though perhaps isn't mindfulness? Is get out there and help someone else, like pick up 5 pieces of garbage ,gets you out of your mind and less selfish. THANK YOU SO MUCH! p.s. the silent retreat was amazing and i have done it now my own version at home.
