The first step is to sit with your eyes closed and your spine straight... And that means that I am better at not saying that stupid, impulsive thing that's going to ruin my marriage for the next minutes, not always, but a lot of the time.
Imagine being on live TV, in front of millions, and suddenly experiencing a panic attack. That's exactly what happened to Dan Harris, an award-winning ABC News correspondent and co-anchor of 'Nightline'. This unexpected crisis led him on a profound journey to tackle stress and anxiety. In this compelling episode of Right Turn Radio, Dan opens up about his struggles with self-medication and how he ultimately found solace in mindfulness and meditation.
His candid recounting of these experiences offers a unique look into the power of mental health practices. Dan also chats with Dr. Mark Albanese, Medical Director of Addictions at Cambridge Health Alliance, about the role of self-medication in addiction. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, curious about mindfulness, or looking for inspiration from someone who has been there, this episode provides valuable insights and practical advice.
