In this episode of Radio Headspace, Dora shares the story of someone navigating the first disorienting moments after a layoff, and explains how mindfulness can help you ground yourself when everything feels unreal. If you’re feeling frozen or numb right now, you’re not broken — you’re healing. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
