Now onto the “how” of mindfulness. As I shared earlier in this series, DBT Mindfulness has two main components: What you do (Observe, Describe, Participate), and How you do it (Nonjudgmentally, One-Mindfully, Effectively). We’ve made it through the What skills, now it’s time to dive into the How skills, starting with the real heavy-hitter: being nonjudgmental.
