We often think mindfulness is just about relaxation or clearing the mind. But for high performers, it is a critical tool for managing the inevitable pain of life and work.In today's 5-minute briefing on clinical psychologist Martyn Newman's practical guide, "The Mindfulness Book," we explore the ancient parable of The Second Arrow.
