Mindful Expat, With Dana Nelson, Ph.d.

What you’ll hear in this episode: • About the importance of practicing mindfulness in everyday situations or through “formal practice” so that we have the skills when we really need them (when we’re in distress). • How to use mindful eating as an everyday mindfulness practice. Resources mentioned in this episode: • The exercise I use in this episode is adapted from the book The Mindful Way through Depression: Freeing Yourself from Chronic Unhappiness, by Mark Williams, John Teasdale, Zindel Segal, and Jon Kabat-Zinn. This book is an excellent resource not only for those who struggle with depression, but also for anyone who may get stuck in anxious or ruminative ways of thinking from time to time (i.e., most of us!).
