Yoga is for assholes as well.

Why?

good thing to teach a kid how to self-soothe

Call me crazy… but maybe this stops a kid from shooting up a school.

Nope. I can just see the Trojan Horse that leftist progressives are using to indoctrinate kids, or perhaps the poor fools that are grasping for something to replace prayer.

You are just as bad as the "leftist progressives" you do not like. You have the same mindset which is "my views are right and everyone else is wrong". Mindfulness isn't associated with a political ideology.

Will look into this.

You should embrace meditation and other forms of mind relaxation instead of acting like an arse about it.

Mindfulness is associated with a religion, when it is introduced into schools it ultimately becomes political.

The Army tried to have me embrace this shite as part of the billion dollars they spent on their positive psychology program for combat vets.

Their purpose was to basically force soldiers to forget about the fact that they were incompetently losing two wars at the time.

Jesus Christ.

No here is another person and it is not me.

Can there be Catholic mindfulness?

The very first sentence in the article directly contradicts your theory dumbass

And the last paragraph refutes yours.

quote:

If you struggle with anxiety, my recommendation as a former Catholic counselor is that you don’t turn to Buddha or pop-psychology, but to Christ. He is the One who promised that if we fill our minds with whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, whatever is excellent, whatever is worthy of praise, what you have learned and received and heard in and through His Church, do; and the God of peace will be with you.
