Practicing mindfulness can improve the effectiveness of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Mindfulness relies on an awareness of the moment. When you develop a mindfulness practice, you can avoid being overwhelmed by your thoughts and reduce impulsive behaviors. You can work to accept what’s happening at any given moment without judgment.
