In this episode of the Healthcare Leadership Excellence Podcast, Dr. Jared Warren, from the Department of Psychology at Brigham Young University, comes back to our podcast and delves into the world of mindfulness and its connection to psychology and positivity.
Dr. Warren explains that mindfulness is about awareness, allowing individuals to observe their thinking habits, emotional experiences, and interactions with others. This awareness provides flexibility and resilience, enabling individuals to choose their responses to challenging situations rather than reacting impulsively. He emphasizes that mindfulness is not an instant solution but a skill that develops over time, much like physical training…and a skill that is foundational for leaders.
Dr. Warren offers resources for those looking to embark on a mindfulness journey, such as a free mindfulness module on his website, MyBestSelf101.org. He also introduces the "Mindfulness for Humans" course, a structured program to help individuals develop mindfulness skills and personalized strategies.
