You first came to learn about mindfulness from a doctor who recommended it after you came in showing severe stress symptoms. What happened?
There’s a lot of strong science behind how mindfulness affects the brain. Can you explain how we can rewire our brains for calm, peace and happiness?
You have been studying, practicing, and teaching mindfulness extensively for years. How did this lead you to write your new book, “SNAP! From Chaos to Calm”?
What is SNAP and how can it help people relieve stress and restore calm?
What makes SNAP different from other mindfulness acronyms people may be familiar with, such as “RAIN”?
In your book you share SNAP strategies for coping with anger, anxiety, grief, sadness, depression, shame, and guilt, and even political strife and disaster. Why is self-compassion and soothing touch the starting point for all?
Most of us have heard the term “inner critic” and are all too familiar with that nagging internal voice. In your first book you recommend calling yourself “sweetie” or some other term of endearment, but you have a more colorful term for that inner critic. What is it, and how can we silence it?
You write about having compassion for ourselves as well as the world and letting our hearts radiate love outward — what you call a “bust your bra” state of being. How can we get in touch with our compassion?
You also share a story about not being into praying, then realizing that your mindfulness meditation was a form of prayer. Tell us what happened.
People often say they’re too busy to meditate. How do you hope to change that by teaching SNAP?
