Just so you know, as far as I understand it, this only applies the 15% buff (and 15% reduction to mana) to casts after the first cast. So you need to Soothing Mist, then Vivify/Enveloping Mist, then any Viv/Env casts after that get the stacking buff starting at 15%. So you can't use this to, say, spread around 15% stronger/cheaper Enveloping Mists to your Mythic+ group.
It's really only useful for single target healing in that instance, but everyone takes so much group damage in Mythic+ it's useless in that sense compared to Ancient Teachings or Tear legendaries, both of which are also extremely strong in raid.

That limitation to this legendary, along with breaking the stacking buff as soon as you stop casting Soothing Mist makes this really, really useless except for maybe healing up Sun King.

If this legendary gets buffed in some way, it could be really strong for M+ if the 15% buff applied to your very first cast, because then you could spread around 15% stronger Enveloping Mists to the group for 15% cheaper, and then have much more efficient heals on the tank as well. Otherwise I don't know why you'd ever take this over the other legendaries for healing M+ and raids because its benefit comes solely in the form of single target triage. And the only time you're ever doing that as a Monk in this entire expansion (so far) is maybe in casual BGs where you're safely keeping up a target from afar, and again for the Sun King fight.

And if they ever allow for equipping two legendaries, I still wouldn't take this one in its current form over say that Haste buff one when you pop Celestials.
