And I'm just curious, what does practicing mindfulness look like in an everyday life? And I suppose, how does it differ from relaxation or meditation alone?
12:04
And I think that's a very good question, you know, because when I brought mindfulness to one of my clients once, she was like, oh, no, no, no, that's not really for me.
12:13
I don't like yoga and meditation and all these things.
12:16
And I think I had to ask, like, what do you know about mindfulness? What's your understanding of mindfulness? And sometimes really working around these, I think mindfulness is a practice you can bring into any moment of our day.
12:30
It's about how you relate to your experience, both internally and externally.
12:35
And I think an easy way to think about it is there's inner world mindfulness and outer world mindfulness.
12:44
Inner world mindfulness is being aware of your own thoughts, emotions, body sensations, urges.

And Iqbal, I know you've volunteered it earlier, but maybe you might bring us through a mindfulness practice now, if that's okay for our listeners? Yeah, sure.
