Mindfulness-Based Therapy has been useful for teaching my clientele relaxation and Mindfulness skills helping them to focus on things they can control rather than what's out of their control. This approach aims to refocus the attention from things out of our control to focusing on our body, mind, and feelings. This approach can be helpful to those who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mood disorders.
