These are quotes from therapy instructors about how they viewed a research module on mindfulness:
«Der Workshop und das Übungsintervall haben mir geholfen, mehr auf den Moment zu achten sowie Eindrücke und Gedanken erstmal weniger zu bewerten.»
My draft:
"The workshop and the exercise interval helped me to be more 'in the moment,' as well as to give less credence to initial impressions and thoughts."
