Today, I\\u2019m trying something a little different!

\\n

I broke today\\u2019s episode into two segments.

\\n

In the first segment, I talk about the fact that today is Suicide Prevention Day and how mindfulness and compassion can empower you to help someone else - or maybe you! - to see another option.

\\n

And in the second segment, I talk about how we can turn natural and automatic anticipation into forced and emotional expectation and what happens when we do.
