To support healthcare professionals who face a range of challenging experiences on a daily basis, I’m reaching out today to re-connect you all with our friend Dr. Reena Kotecha, who you may remember from previous Mindful Healthcare events. 

In this free 5-minute video, Dr. Reena shares evidence-based insight into the importance and effectiveness of emotional regulation in reducing the intensity and duration of uncomfortable feelings, without suppressing or denying.  She then goes on to share a specific practice called “affect labeling” that you can apply in your own life and work right away.
