More Details

Summary:

In this digital age, our brains have an insatiable urge for seeking new things. With the Internet and cell phones we have a limitless source of novelty at our fingertips. We can't stop pressing the search button, looking for another hit of dopamine. This can lead to anxiety, depression, OCD, addictions, and a loss of connection with ourselves and with our life. Mindfulness meditation is a technique we use for this. It is a kind of alert, relaxed openness where you are not thinking of anything in particular, but not striving to remove anything either. Mindfulness is used in therapy to help clients experience their emotions in the present. It helps them ground into their bodies. It creates exposure to their emotions and thoughts. We use mindfulness in therapy to strengthen new behaviors and positive mind-states. Emily Dailey meets with client, Melissa, who struggles with 'overthinking and anxiety'. In this instructional video, Emily demonstrates 3 mindfulness interventions including Rewiring the Brain, Clarifying Emotions, and Awareness Meditation.
