Mastering mindfulness for survival in medicine

We all lead busy, frantic lives. We often get so caught up in our own thoughts that we don’t see what is happening around us. This tunnel vision is self-perpetuating, and we easily become disconnected from our surroundings and enter autopilot mode. This can be useful for getting things done efficiently. However, if your mind is constantly like a busy motorway that never slows down, the more likely you are to become exhausted, suffer the effects of stress and burn out. Mindfulness can be helpful for finding a place of calm among the chaos, especially in high-stress careers like medicine.
