I've been trying to practice mindfulness in therapy

but I keep finding myself pondering existential dread during meditation instead of my breath

but so far, my go-to coping mechanism is just telling people I'm doing the work in therapy.

My manager just called an 'urgent all-hands' meeting to discuss how we can all be more proactive about asynchronous communication.
