Why do you respond or react the way you do? This about self-regulation and your reactivity mode. My mission here is to really help you strengthen your own self-regulating muscle.

I talk about what reactivity and self-regulation is, the danger of making excuses for other people’s behaviors, the passive aggressive ways of expressing displeasure, and the Freudian perspective on self-regulation.

The real question you should be asking yourself is what can you do? Today, I am going to share the importance of mindfulness and meditation and very simple apps that you can use to help with your mindfulness practice.
