Virtual Mindfulness with Trish Tutton

While mindfulness practices can be beneficial for many, it's important to note that they may not suit everyone. For some individuals, engaging in mindfulness exercises might bring up feelings of discomfort or anxiety. If you find that these practices are not a good fit for you, we encourage you to explore other tools and approaches that align better with your needs; it's okay to choose what works best for you.
