Yeah, I think if you live in a virtual world all the time, then you're not living, right? You're not in the real world. So it's like, how can you use the virtual? Are there ways that the virtual world can help you live the current world in a better way? Yes. So that's why I think it's helpful. But if you replace your life with a virtual life, then that's a pity. That's very sad.

So here we were in my program. We had created Q Center Therapy, right? We developed a training program for it. We have a Q Center Therapy training program.

I was worried about vicarious trauma and the impact that this would have in their health. So I remember that when I was doing my residency, I took a course in hypnosis, and I was really struck by how much control one has during hypnosis. So it's nothing like anyone is doing to anybody else. It's really... kind of having the control to relax yourself. Self-directed hypnosis.

Self-directed type of hypnosis. And I said, I would like to bring something like that. And I met a PhD, John Rutger, that was a yoga instructor and also a mindfulness instructor, and I brought him to the team. And he had other things to do, but one of the main goals was to take care of the team. And we started regularly practicing yoga and practicing mindfulness.

as we were seeing all these cases and working with trauma and so forth. And I was able to see firsthand how helpful it was for me personally and for my team. At the time, we were doing some work in East Palo Alto in some of the schools. We were doing some pro bono counseling because this is another problem. Many of the schools have no counselors, right? But this was a while back.
