Treleaven, Ph.D., author of "Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness," for an closer look at the intersection of grief, trauma, and mindfulness, so you can understand the benefits and pitfalls before you practice. Mindfulness meditation is highly praised for helping people reduce physical, emotional, and psychological suffering. But when trauma is involved, mindfulness needs to be handled with care, modified, or outright avoided.
