Topic - The mindfulness app that lets you keep your sanity
Those digital devices that we love to hate, they just might keep you from losing your grip. The mindfulness app, Headspace, makes it easier for you to lower your body’s fear reactions using your phone. Mindfulness is effective in reducing the intensity of emotions in many people. It can also help treat a number of distressing conditions such as depression. The app helps to train you to let go of certain reactions such as fear, thereby short-circuiting the anxiety response. No more heart pounding out of your chest. No more sweaty palms. No more dizziness. No more being afraid of being afraid. Practice slowly and consistently. When you practice mindfulness in the face of your fears, there’s even more progress. It’ll take time to dial back that anxiety because, for most people, if they’re not feeling anxious, something must be wrong. Train yourself to be healthier.
