How do you stop yourself from getting stressed by the news? Can you go on a news blackout? Mindfulness expert Padraig O'Morain says that's okay, to a point, but we can't shut the world out just because we don't like it. Stay informed, but just don't wallow in the really bad stuff for too long, he told the Róisín Meets podcast this week. He also discussed Donald Trump's narcissism, how some Irish politicians could do with a dose of mindfulness and gave tips on how to start the New Year in a positive space.
