Certainly: Using mindfulness, you're observing what's presently happening in yourself, rather than automatically going back to old patterns between you and your partner. You also observe how your partner is, and put a "pause" between stimulus and your response. This allows time to breathe, to be curious, and then to proceed in a manner that supports both of you.
