Mindfulness is more important in daily life than some may think

 Many people go through life without therapy when they know they need it and won’t ask for help, or don’t even understand they need it but need the help. There are multiple kinds of therapy, and some people may only find that one works for them while no others do.

 In DBT one of the most discussed practices for coping is mindfulness. Mindfulness is so much more important to everyone’s daily life than people realize. According to newsinhealth.nih.gov, “Studies suggest that mindfulness practices help people manage stress, cope better with serious illness and reduce anxiety and depression. Many people who practice mindfulness report an increased ability to relax, a greater enthusiasm for life, and improved self-esteem.”
