It has helped me. Some of it happened subconsciously. I think because my daughter noticed a change in me before I did. I’m calmer and more tolerant of different situations. I find myself using the techniques often. I let people be who they are without letting their negativism affect me. I feel it will be beneficial for veterans to develop these coping skills.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e266f9dfb3e614a442de65c/1580918863855-P234Z6EMPMTBGNUYUCAU/image-asset.jpeg Stories - Cancer Survivor “Practicing mindfulness with Carly changed my life and gave me tools to cope with the anxiety and restlessness I experienced after my treatment for cancer. I use the skills I learned every day and would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn to cope with the stress from any personal challenge.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e266f9dfb3e614a442de65c/1580920200175-GGGDWGUKQAG65PGZPN0B/image-asset.jpeg Stories - Veteran “I would definitely recommend this group to others because psychotropic drugs are the usual first approach to treating mental health, when that can sometimes be counter productive. A lot of us need a listening ear and a place to let out a lot of pent up emotions. What needs to come out is ourselves. This mindfulness simply breaks the chain that binds.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e266f9dfb3e614a442de65c/1580921991208-2A4GUX1HWB6WLA52TS2F/image-asset.jpeg Stories - Veteran “I’m a veteran dealing with PTSD. A couple of months back I began mindfulness meditation with Carly Maletich. Since attending her class my quality of life has improved dramatically. My anxiety and stress levels are continually decreasing from day to day. I look forward to class because it helps me deal with society, personal problems, and living a more enjoyable life. Being part of mindful meditation with Carly Maletich has helped me to approach everyday life situations that have been toxic with a curious perspective and non-judgmental attitude.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e266f9dfb3e614a442de65c/1580920572084-15ZUNGRVAFBJ0RRNTCN7/image-asset.jpeg Stories - Business Professional “The most valuable aspect of this work is that I have been able to look at myself and my situation objectively. This analysis has allowed me to regain my inner strength that I had misplaced somewhere along the way of life’s path.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e266f9dfb3e614a442de65c/1580921037421-JJ7O56YKPUN7KRDPKDT0/image-asset.jpeg Stories - Athlete “This work has allowed me to take charge of my own healing.
