So gratfull ti finde some of Marks mindfulness meditations here. I just love them ❤️I listen a lot when I learns the MBCT by Mark in 2007 and 2009 in Sweden. I can recommend Marks meditation and books a lot, I learned about the recurring depression and found my way to heal my own recurring depression by all the beautiful work of Mark and his colleagues, and then integrating that in n my own life.. So a big thanks to you Mark, my heart is filled with love and gratitude for all the wisdom and knowledge you shared with me and the groups here in Sweden 🙏❤️🙏

A nice short reminder to refocus on the here and now in the form of breath and physical sensations.

Very practical and helpful. I was getting a bit overwhelmed working with feeling tones and this made it feel much more manageable.
