Mindfulness and Meditation: Creating Space for Growth through Feedback

When someone comes to you with negative feedback, do you get defensive? 

Do you automatically come up with reasons why you did something, building a case for the way you did it?

Do you shift the blame onto someone else? 

Or does your heart start racing?

If this resonates, you are not alone. It is human to want to defend your choices, actions, and beliefs.

I am covering the signs and symptoms of defensiveness, why we get defensive in the first place, and strategies you can use to become less defensive.
