Listen "#021: 5 Reasons not to practice mindfulness (and how to overcome them) - Part 2"
Episode Synopsis
Mindfulness is not for me because...
I don't know how
I tried it once and it didn't "work"
I'm not into that spiritual stuff
I can't clear my mind, it doesn't work for me
I get restless and can't sit still that long
I fall asleep
Mindfulness is a powerful tool in avoiding and recovering from burnout. There are 5 main obstacles that we have to overcome when practicing mindfulness. In this episode I cover the first 2, we look at the challenges and some solutions to overcome them.
