About This Quote
Mindfulness can help you gain insight into your role in conflicts with others, but it won’t single-handedly help you resolve them. Mindfulness is simply training your mind to be more accepting of the thoughts and feelings that arise in the moment. It also helps by helping you notice when your emotions are being whipped up unnecessarily. You might feel angry, sad, or anxious when all of this is unnecessary.
