The Visible Kindness Podcast

I'm writing a memoir book of a deep story about my life that I've never spoken about before.   I've talked a lot about the sexual abuse that happened to me when I was a young boy and how life was wonderful until I was 3 years old when everything changed. I’ve been telling that part of my life often since I started an organization in 2016 called MeTooWhatNow (www.metoowhatnow.com).  It helps men and women who suffered childhood trauma get their lives back.   What I've NEVER talked about is the darkness in my life that I had for decades.   When my memoir comes out in 2024,...

On this episode, I welcome mindfulness coach Katrina Gleisberg and co-creator of the ‘Calm During Chaos’ mindfulness e-Course.  Katrina has a background as a special education teacher, and she also led a support group called ‘The Military Club,’ for students raised with a military background.  

Living in a military family, Katarina taught special education for 3rd and 4th-grade students in multiple countries.  During her travels, she noticed a marked difference in the student’s ability to settle down, focus, and become more productive after a mindfulness practice she learned of, called T.A.P.S. (Total and Perfect Silence).

Katarina says, “Mindfulness can be practiced anywhere, anytime, free of charge for everyone! Anyone can learn a personal, simple, mindfulness practice, without adding extra time into their daily routine.

On this episode:

  1. How to calm an entire classroom of children using a technique called T.A.P.S. (Total and perfect silence).
  2. Why being calm is NOT the same as being mindful?
  3. The side effects of mindfulness.
  4. What are the greatest benefits of mindfulness?
  5. Why it's important to be mindful before taking on a project or an important task.
  6. How you can be mindful using different techniques and exercises.
  7. Why self-compassion is better than self-esteem.  
  8. Katarina and I do a mindfulness exercise.
