205: How to Be More Present: Mindfulness, Psychology, and Spirituality with John-Paul Dombrowski

Have you ever wondered why being “present” feels so impossible sometimes? Why mindfulness exercises feel like one more thing on your to-do list instead of a genuine way to connect with life?

In this episode of A Healthy Push Podcast, I sit down with John-Paul, a therapist and content creator who blends psychology, spirituality, and mindfulness in a unique, practical way.

John-Paul shares his journey from growing up in a religious household, navigating depression, and discovering the power of relational therapy, to creating content that resonates with thousands online.

We explore:

  • Why identity can sometimes hold us back from truly being ourselves
  • How mindfulness is not about forcing calm or stopping your thoughts, but about noticing and engaging with the present moment without judgment
  • The balance between psychology and spirituality, and how connection can transform your approach to life
  • Practical ways to bring presence into daily life, even during discomfort or anxiety

Whether you’re struggling to slow down, overwhelmed by your thoughts, or just curious about how mindfulness and spirituality intersect with psychology, this conversation is full of insights you can apply in your day-to-day.
