In this episode of the #8 ranked stress podcast Greg Hammer, MD, Stanford School of Medicine professor, physician, best-selling author, and mindfulness expert shares tips to become more nonjudgmental and explains the benefits. With practices that you can easily try today, he guides us through his GAIN acronym, making it easy to remember the 4 steps to letting go of judgment. Of all the episodes I've recorded this is one of my very favorites because it describes the core practices & benefits of mindfulness in an accessible way and as you know, I want nothing more than for mindfulness to find it's way into your world to help you live a life with less stress.
