Welcome to a special bonus episode of Central Bark: A Podcast by Guide Dogs for the Blind. Today, we’re sharing a powerful live recording from a mindfulness workshop led by Dr. Jason Doorish during our recent Alumni Reunion. In this exclusive session, Jason guides listeners through grounding techniques, stress-reduction strategies, and a calming guided meditation designed to support guide dog handlers, puppy raisers, volunteers, and anyone seeking mental wellness tools. Whether you’re navigating the busy holiday season, preparing for guide dog training, or simply looking to build a more mindful daily routine, this episode offers practical, accessible techniques to help you reset and recharge.
