Anxiety, over eating, smoking, drinking, all of these things can be habits that we want to change. We beat are selves up when do these things – well, I certainly do – when all the healthcare providers out there say don’t!
One of those providers is Dr. Jud’ Brewer, a psychiatrist and internationally known expert in mindfulness training for treating addictions.
I love his approach – curiosity and kindness – to change those habits.
Dr. Jud focuses on how habits are created in the brain and shows how mindfulness can help increase awareness of automatic thoughts and behaviors.
By teaching clients to observe their cravings and urges with compassion, providers can support them in breaking unhealthy patterns and building healthier habits. His approach emphasizes that self-awareness and gentle acceptance are powerful tools for managing stress, reducing burnout, and improving mental well-being. Brewer also creates practical digital tools that can be easily integrated into self-care routines or patient support plans.
